    I have a rant, but where do I start?
    1-We can't run the ball.
    2-AR is pressured because our offensive line can't stop a nose bleed, PLUS he holds onto the ball too long. Ugly.
    3-Our defense can't seem to stop the run, too many long yardage runs. Uglier.
    4-Both sides of the ball are undisciplined and rattled thus causing too many penalties, something we shouldda fixed over the off season. Ugliest.

    Oh one more thing, could Mike McCarthy have called a more vanilla offense? I doubt it.

    Good stuff?
    Woodson a one man interception machine.
    Donald Driver once again the go to guy.
    AR didn't have a concussion.

    While one game doesn't make a season, I'm worried.:NOTMARIS:

    That's small compensation Denny, seriously, even tho they're da bears!

    We got beat by the Bungals, at home, got 5 sacks, got 24 penalties and saved from a blow out by Woodson's 2 ints. Something's wrong, hope there's a fix!

    I'm not feeling too confident - nor should the Packers.

    Don't give up already sir. Stay calm. The O-line needs to do their thing. Thats the biggest thing that needs to be fixed. Then Rodgers can actually set his feet and throw the ball, he can get accurate passes to our talented receivers and it'll be all good on offense. The front 7 on D has the ability to be better, they just need to try next game.

    Hi GB - I haven't given up, I'm just very concerned.

    Next week we're on the road at St. Louis, they're down 0-2 and I hear they've got some O-line problems of their own. It's their 1st home game so they'll bring alot of emotion to the game. This is a team we SHOULD beat, even on the road, let's see if do!

    Well, points 1 and 2 are really the same issue. You guys definitely need to improve your O-line play going forward.

    I know this might not console much, but the Bengals really do have a pretty strong defense.

    HAHAA! The Lions are the great blue wild card in the North this year. They're going to win at least ONE game against the North teams. I hope it's the Bears. :ghoti:

    thanks for the welcome, I like it here.

    Lol, you can call me DPGB. Usually what I am called. I am concerned a bit as well but I see a promising future. Chutney said the Bengals have a good D-Line, I agree, they did good the first week as well, i think. They are a very talented and growing D-Line. And if the Rams have O-Line troubles as well, I can see our 3-4 having a blast.

    I hope the Lions beat the Bears and Vikings in their meetings from here out. I like the Lions a hell of a lot more than the Bears and Vikings. Its funny cause I still hate the Lions. xDD
