From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
That game was a garbage fire in which the refs were way too prominent and we got so many breaks it didn’t seem fair.
But we were the better team and we won and we finally broke the red zone defense futility streak, officially at least.
Nothing to complain about. Came away with a double digit win against an inferior opponent.
As for the run/pass, it may have been extreme but their biggest advantage was their d line versus our banged up o line. The plan worked fine so why question it. We’re moved the ball pretty well almost all day, despite a modest score output

such as?
The red zone series with the “gave himself up” was so dumb. It was a letter of the law ruling not a spirit of the law. That guy ran untouched into the endzone. I’m not going to feel great about that.
The big PI on Adams looked egregious in live action, but on replay could have been an easy no call. A hand on the shoulder with no hook doesn’t merit a call to me.
The fumble that wasn’t recovered by Savage got corrected on replay, but the call on the field was obviously wrong that the review itself was annoying.
We were a better team, but there were so many close calls and they all leaned our way. On the season, it felt like justice and fair. Win some, lose some. Within the course of the game, it was just terrible to watch and felt extra frustrating

Nice win. This is one of those 4-5 games per year that by next year, I won't remember because it was just a comfortable blowout win. We're just a better team than them, simple as.

Now onto the hard part of the schedule.
I think this was Gary’s first absolutely dominant game. He was good last week. He took this game over.

Yeah this is sort of what we all expected out of him this season. I hope he keeps it up.

Yeah, normally I hate when we go so pass-heavy but in this case, it made sense. The secondary was the clear weakness of their D, DL their clear strength and they have some LBers who can play (not to mention Landon Collins in the box). I liked some of the quick passes outside to replace running up the middle.

So 1 break that was an error by the player.
The Adams PI is offset with the Douglass PI call.
I don't think the refs impacted the outcome of the game. They were sloppy for sure. But no real advantage to one team or the other.
