Devin Hester owns so drat much and should be in the hall of fame. The kick return in the Super Bowl is easily the happiest I have been as a Bears fan.

I loved watching Hester as a Vikings fan. Was terrified anytime he touched the ball, but always thought he would do something amazing every time he did.

it was so insane that they kicked to him at that point in the game instead of seeing if rex would commit his 7th turnover

Yay to Rodgers being back, and yes Hester should be in the Hall as a returner, Jesus that guy flipped games single-handedly, not even counting the hundreds of times punts were adjusted to not go to him.

against the Panthers, Vikings, and Lions? That is going to be a serious challenge. We'll have to see how Rodgers looks back, but even if he's on his game at least two of those teams will put up a hell of a fight.

Watching Hester the first couple of years he played, it felt like he got a big return pretty much whenever he wanted.

I can easily believe he would be retiring with a couple of dozen punt return touchdowns alone if everyone hadn't realized midway through his rookie year "wait, do not kick anywhere near this motherfucker if it is humanly possible to avoid doing so!"

plenty of skill players in the Hall who didn't impact games as much as he did in his prime, imo

Yeah, the way I look at it is if he wins out, then the team will obviously be hot going into the playoffs. If not, oh well. There's no way they can limp into the playoffs.

I wonder how much shorter punts ended up being because they were always off to the side.

If they change the rules of a game because you are too good at the game, you should be in the Hall of Fame.

https://www.acmepackingcompany.com/by-the-numbers/2017/12/13/16767202/packers-worst-situational-defense-in-nfl-dom-capers-2017

quote:

Here’s the list of third-down defenses at the bottom of the league. Green Bay is in some pretty sorry company.

28. Oakland Raiders (43.8%)
29. Dallas Cowboys (43.9%)
30. Green Bay Packers (44.4%)
31. Indianapolis Colts (44.6%)
32. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (48.3%)

The Buccaneers and Raiders are the worst defenses in football by DVOA, and the Colts — who the Packers only barely edge out for second-worst in the league -- are a 3-10 disaster zone. Green Bay is down there with the worst, most undisciplined defenses in the league. Life isn’t any better in the red zone, where the Packers have been mucking it up in the cellar all season.

Here’s the bottom of the league in points per red zone trip:

28. Washington Pro Team
29. Arizona Cardinals
30. Miami Dolphins
31. Cleveland Browns
32. Green Bay Packers

There’s only one common name on those two lists. In other words, not only are the Packers the worst situational defense in the league, they’re easily the worst.

This Saturday and next Saturday have 2 games each




Sunday is Christmas eve, so they're playing all the games at 1 and 4, no late games

They're also playing two games on Christmas (Monday). Which is sucks because there are basketball fans I will have to fight, for control of the TV
