Ha, yeah. I think I did that because we had some poster in here a few years ago who thought his posts would garner more looks if he left the caps on.

Has anyone heard from NBT lately? I'm a little worried about that motherscratcher.

He hasn't been around since just after the draft when y'all were ribbing him for posting in the wrong thread. Haven't heard from him since.

With the Ravens coming in here next week, I'd much rather lose like this than by
a FG in overtime. Next Sunday is a more important game for us, and we should be fired-up and really ready to compete next week after suffering this humiliation on national TV. Whether or not the prime-time games are especially big to fans, they undoubtedly are to the players.

I said before the game I'd rather lose to the Packers than lose to the Ravens.

We were just stupid, ineffectively and were beaten to practically every ball.

Hopefully, most everyone got their sucky game out this week and will be on fire next week.

Can somebody please figure out how to fix the turf too? All that slipping was atrocious and I'm sure Green Bay is going to quietly pitch a fit to the league offices about the turf contributing to player injuries. The frozen tundra in January has better traction than this.

It's just another example of Houston-style ineptitude.

Terrible effort. Only a few guys looked into the game (and none played offensive line or LB). Joseph is clearly hurt and it shows. He may our most irreplacable defender. Without him at full strength we pay for the blitzing more and our lack of a true edge rusher shows up when we can't blitz.

The offense looked bad all game. I thought the officiating was brutal against our defense, but our offense blew this one on their own. It was also disturbing to see Capers have our number for a game. He just sat up their in the booth with his bad comb over dialing up a perfect game.

GB played out of their minds and the game meant far more to their season. They were frustrated, felt overlooked, and they came to play.

Calling 5 straight passing plays to open the game may have outsmarted ourselves. We never had the ball enough to make the running game good. Not to mention a smart DC will copy this gameplan. Take chances on early downs to try to put us behind schedule rather than taking body blows all night.

A terrible effort all around. I just have to tell myself we are 5-1 right now though and I am much happier. All that matters in the end is the record and we are in a better place than anyone in the AFC. We need to win next week to stay there.

Well I hope Kubiak and Wade store this game tape because it's probably a blueprint of what we'll see in few weeks from New England.

Everyone knows that Rogers is a great QB, if not the very best one of the 2 best in the game right now along with Manning (the one with the Giants). And even with injuries they a very potent offense when Rogers is as "on" as he was last night.
What really troubles me was our offense. It looked extremely slow against what is thought to be an average Packer defense. Andre looked slow, only a shadow of his former self. Arian looked slow as a turtle, and the OLine led by Duane Brown who seemed to be overwhelmed and outclassed by Matthews, looked very slow, downright lethargic.
