You were pretty vocal criticizing fans that only considered winning the Super Bowl as a success in the past. Why have you changed your mind about it for this season?
LOL I was vocal about criticizing fans? If you want to take me saying that some fans only consider winning it all as a success, as a criticism, then go for it Captain, but it is true. What other fans want, need or desire is up to them and who cares if it differs from my personal views, since none of it influences the outcome of the game.

You suddenly seem to have a real issue with people having different opinions than yours, what gives?

Studs- pretty much everyone
Duds- Aaron Rodgers as a human being.

You okay?

Stud

Defense collectively, Douglas and Alexander specifically because I've been pretty annoyed with their talk far outweighing their play all year, but they brought it today.

As glorious as the Savage return and Clark solo sack & recovery were, my favorite play might have been the short pass in the flat to Cook where four yellow hats were surrounding him instantaneously. We are FINALLY playing team defense.

Kenny Clark being a dominant man among boys and starting to play his best ball at the perfect time

Reed has become a force as well

Season-altering, character-defining goal-line stand

O-Line coming together + Run Game

Crosby from 56 in the cold



Dud

Blocked punt

Passing game still needs work/rhythm

Romo is just unbearable; he sounds like he is drunk all this time at the point.

Studs - everybody. Players, coaches, fans
Duds- giving up two cheap touchdowns at the end to make it look like it was closer than It was.
What a pleasure to beat the hell out of the Vikings in a big game.

I haven't seen Schlereth in years. The top guys have quirks that some may not like, me included, but Aikmen/Buck, Collinsworth/Michaels, and Romo/Nantz are the top 3 pretty easily. There are things that can drive someone nuts about either, but compared to the rest, they call the game and know what is going on. The rest of those guys I listen and catch mistake after mistake and I study the NFL with about a -0.02% of my time now. I shouldn't know more than the professional while watching the game.

Let's ignore the 4th quarter scrubs giving up 2 TDs for the moment.
Since halftime of the Dolphins game, the Packers starting defense has given up only a field goal. That to a team that got the ball needing only 1 yard to go for a TD.
Since halftime of the Eagles game, the Packers starting defense has given up 5 TDs over the 4 1/2 game stretch.
Since halftime of the Bears game, the Packers offense has put up 85 points.

So what you are telling us is Barry has a chance of being around for the 2023 season?

I go back and forth on Barry. Most of the season I just wanted him gone, but these last 4-5 games may have saved him his job.

No offense good sir but Aikman and Buck are God awful

Sadly I really think it has.

My biggest takeaway:

Joe Barry is the biggest dud because his defense is coming together in just enough time to trick MLF and some fans into NOT replacing him this offseason.

You might be right, but I think I'll just keep my head in the clouds while longer.

I'd much rather have Romo than the dud Collinsworth. Wait, you'll hear him cheering on the Lions.
I think Collinsworth makes some very good play analysis. Where he blows it is with superlatives. Crap like "that is the best catch ever." If he sticks with football analysis he is good imho. But of course he doesn't.

Roughly 1/4 to 1/3 of the fans were in purple :(. Late in the 4th quarter many Packer fans around us were mock-chanting skol & the overhead clap. The Vikes fans took it good naturedly as they knew their team was thoroughly whooped.
Wow. I would not have thought that possible. To have that many fans of the other team in Lambeau.

Unfortunately true my last 2 trips into Lambeau. :( . I earlier posted about my (bad) experience a few years ago against Philly...that was at least 1/3 Philly fans.
Sad to see Lambeau over-run by visiting fans when there's a season ticket waiting list of well over 137,000 (as of 2019 article I found).

The tickets have actually become too valuable… Season ticket holders sell their tickets back to resellers.
