Most Packers fans would counter that Aikmans irrational hate for the Packers would balance such a thing out, I really don't see it on either end, tbh.[/quote]


No one is saying that you need to be hated. Its just annoying. Something amazing will happen on the field. Like lets even say its Eddie Lacy busting a 96 yard run where he stiff arms 7 defenders. Buck will interrupt the freaking replay to...


"Just LOOK at the way Rodgers handed that ball off, its not something you can teach and look here. As that guy runs with the thing- how Rodgers looks down field. Like a Regal Eagle peering into the future. God look at that amazing posture as he walks off field. Oh yeah, Lacy just knocked over the goal post- LOOK at how Rodgers holds that clip board. I am saying it right now. He is a Future Hall of Famer. GOAT."

That line alone gets you "Post of the Week"!

The Pack haven't won since this commercial first aired! Well done Mr.Ditka!

Good stuff! there was one very similar that irked me in the Lions game, when a guy blocks as Rodgers is scrambling and Buck says, "Look at that, Rodgers tells him who to block and he does it!". Seriously? Its embarrassing.

Look, the Lions are pitiful. Their OWNER just sent their fans a personal email apologizing for sicking so badly. Yet they beat the Pack when the Pack was supposed to be "rebounding and angry" ! Our D if better then the Lions D. Our RB is better then the entire Lions offense. There is lots of reasons to be very confident this weekend. They have no go to receiver. Their RB is useless. This game is SOOO winnable. I think we are gonna see a lot of sad meek cheeseheads crying in their beers this week. YIPPEE

Starks isn't 'useless', we had a top 10 rushing attack for the majority of the season.

What is it ranked now?

What is it ranked now?

Idk but if you want to throw out the first 6 games in favor of the last 3 then Rodgers must be a steaming pile of ####.

It's amazing how one bad game can screw with that number. Kinda like the SF game screws with the Vikings defensive rushing numbers.

[dead_poet]

Idk

16th. 108 yards/game; 4.3 avg. Only 4 rushing TDs.

Rodgers must be a steaming pile of ####.

Oh good; you're starting to see it, too.

We can do that if you'd like.

That stats could rise as quickly as the fell.

But in any event, that still isn't the statline that bears out 'useless'.

[dead_poet]

Of course. It could also keep falling at its current pace. Care to make a wager if the Packers RBs can top 100 rushing yards this week?

At any rate, I don't fear the Packers' rushing "attack" in the least right now.
