And turned it around immediately. Right pupils?

To an extent absolutely. Now there are a ton of guys like Dungy for example, it is a rare person that doesn’t find him motivational and worthy of respect.

I suspect Ried is quite endearing to his pupils/teams as well fast.

Well Detroit and Washington are serious about improving THIS season.

It will be supremely disappointing if we don’t absolutely clobber the bears coming off our bye. They are unbelievably bad.
Horrific. Not sure what happened. 142 yards at home. 1-14 on 3rd down. We better not have a let down. They will be irate next week. Lose to the Patriots?

Some surprising scores so far. As for us, hold on jaguars and Patriots!
We are not going to be a problem for anyone in our division....this year.
Our only hope is an offense minded coach....I'll take Ben Johnson or Kingsbury or ANYONE who is universally recognized as young offensive and up and coming.
The cycle has to stop.

2024 is kinda hard to expect a Rookie QB to come in on fire. Thats definitely more rare. I think 2024 was always a step backwards for Chicago. 2025 might be where you get some sparks flying at times.
Some seasons we just get outshined. This happened on the Packers in 2000. What a terrible timing to have Tom Brady enter the NFC Onto a team with the #3 ranked Offense from 2019 and an ascending D with White and David in the middle.
Really GB and Chicago picked a bad time to be good. Both Vikings and Lions are better than the bulk of years with a 14-3 Combined record.

Preston Smith!

2 TFL 1 Sack 1 QB Hit.

Already helping The Steelers move up to 1st Place in the AFC North. Preston’s sack at the end of Qtr3 eventually forces 4th n 4 FGin a 1 point game

Neglected the o-line. Caleb sacked 9 times by a 2-7 team at home.
Disgraceful. If Poles can't do the hard thing tmrw morning.....our CEO needs to step in and fire both.
Flus was questionable going into this season...bad luck is bad luck but he's had a lot and Wash was the breaking point.
The team has quit. It's plain as day.

This Texans team is a team that closely resembles GB strength wise. Lets see if they can hang

2 penalties, 0 turnovers. 23-7 Texans. Amazing what relatively mistake free ball can do vs the Lions.
It does reinforce that the Packers should’ve been more in Last weeks game. I know it’s not perfect science, but we beat Houston. We are a similarly built team when we are playing with juice. We just made a couple critical mistakes and played undisciplined. We were more adversely affected by the rain and wind and rotating our Center was bad timing.

The Lions and Vikings and Bears very well may have been early bloomers. MN just threw 3 straight INT today and BARELY won. Not saying they won’t get any more blossoms, but if we can hit our stride over the next several weeks we are very much in this Division fight. Starts with a Lions loss and a Packers Win over Chicago next week.

Lions fighting back. Houston clamping down on the 2pt was big. Houston needs to get a nice drive here and finish with at least FG to go up 13.

Stroud just missed a wide open receiver underthrowing 2 yards. Ouch

Lions clawing their way back.

Houston 3 Lions 0

Houston hasn’t done a darn thing in the entire 2nd half. Time to wake up

If Houston doesn’t respond with 1 point in an entire half? They don’t deserve to Win. The Lions have a good D but give me a break. This isn’t the 1980’s Bears here. Houston went into shutdown mode like they thought 23 points was the new 40 Burger.



Need 2 1st downs and a FG and this should be game over. The Texans totally sucked this Half. F grade. They let St Brown run alone. Incredible.
