This is going to be the win that makes it easier for Rodgers to come back, and harder for the Lions to get in playoffs

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one to Flavortown, and that has made all the difference.


I hesitate to jinx it, but this looks like it might actually be a football game.

I must win every thread in GBS. I don't care how much banal semantic quibbling and shitty posts it takes.
I finally convinced myself to root AGAINST the Packers winning in order to get better draft position, and then they pull this poo poo.

Hundley.... actually looks okay so far??? That was OOB but that was a tight, spot-on pass, and he placed it where it would be impossible to pick off

Just too bad that Nelson was already so close to the boundary before the pass

WILLIAMS!!!!

Don't tell anybody but Hundley looked good in the Ravens game too. He just also made about 8 horrible mistakes that totally sunk his team.

It's not like the Ted Thompson Packers have done too much with their high draft picks anyway

rodgersless packers are trash, but the steelers are enough of a hot mess, as a group of humans, that I sorta felt they were due for a letdown

Reminder that the Steelers lost to the Bears and needed a defensive TD to beat the Browns. This is hardly a shock.

If there was some way to calculate a team's talent:points ratio, I am positive they would be the all-time worst.

Yes, Hundley looked good except for the multiple times he was complete trash.

it's not all cbs games, it's just a few that I think they have substandard cameras for or something like that

for these games it looks almost like the feed is slightly desaturated or something

I've always thought Fox looked the worst overall. Also CBS seems to have the best audio for some reason.

There are many different ways to be a poo poo QB. I'm saying Hundley is the variety that has all the tools and can flash greatness but his consistently making awful mental mistakes is what makes him trash.
