That would be very wrong Tom, the NFL is very particular about sinage in stadiums and the Packers have the world Championships listed on the walls of the inner stadium if the championships were not legit the NFL would not allow it. The Packers and the Bears built the league so that the other teams that came later could even exist. Do not penalize or minimize the Packers championships just because the vikings did not exist.
As far as this weekend predictions.....I'm gonna say J Cook catches his first TD as a Packer...Lacy pushes past 100 and the Pack take it 27-17....close game the whole way till a late score by Pack.
I would say that's pretty reasonable except Lacy over 100. Run defense was poor last week so it'll be stepped up this week (I hope). Rodgers will get sacked 5 times. 2 of which will be penalized for something dumb.
I'll go a step further, I think Lacy gets over 100 mainly due to AR burning deep a couple times and Lacy breaking just 1 or 2 over 20 yards.....outside the couple big ones I think MN keeps him at or slightly below a 3.0 yd/run average.
Sounds reasonable. How did he look running last week compared to last year, I only saw last minute of the game. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
Good, but we'll see if it sticks. Although compared to last year a power wheel type speed is an upgrade. He's more agile, I think all the yoga he's doing is definitely made his feet lighter and body more agile. One play that stuck out to me was the long one he had 20+....he honestly had a 2nd gear he punched. Last year I never noticed any change of speed from the handoff to the end of the run no matter whether in the open or the hole. He'll never be a burner but the ability to shift a gear and make a defensive adjust routes can gain you another yard or two you wouldn't without it. We will see.
I'll tell you what. Lacy will have to get passed McCarthys play calling to get 100 yds. The stupid shotgun sweeps are not built for a guy like lacy.
I suspect we still see that play call but Lacy won't be incorporated in them as much and he'll adjust to more suitable play calls. I am shocked we didn't see more two TE sets with Rodgers and Cook both showing viable options in the passing game.
I didn't see any of the game but the box score indicates TN got 64 yards on 22 carries. You consider that poor run defense? Wasn't TN the team being hype up all preseason regarding how great their run game is?
I bet they had 60 yards on 10 carries in the first half. I should have rephrased it to say first half run defense. The two halves were completely different.
As much as I hate to admit it, I do have the Packers winning in pick'em. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
As much as I dislike the packers, I do get a kick out of some of the comments Aaron Rogers makes. When asked today about US bank stadium, he responded with "Will that guy on the motorcycle be there? Vikes fans and Sota will appreciate the humor Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Using your formula the Steelers won some championships before several expansion teams were in the league should we add * to the first 4 championships?
Id love to see packers dress that Pressley kid and have him return kick against vikes since they dropped him!0
