Trouble on the Tundra

If week two is any preview of the rest of the season, there is trouble on the tundra. The Packers looked terrible against the Bengals. Every aspect of their game was terrible, but nothing more so than the offensive line. Poor Aaron Rodgers will not last the beating he has had to take. If he goes down the season is lost. 10 sacks and about 10 other hits in two weeks.

How about penalties? There is no excuse for double digit penalties. Coaching better kick in pretty soon, Favre and the Vikings are on the horizon.

At least Woodson and Driver came to play.

It makes sense.

I noticed that Favre started his 270th game. For 269 games, the Viking fans hated Brett Favre. For the game last weekend, they loved him. The Minnesota radio and TV is all about Brett Favre.

Favre tackled Percy Harvin like he was Edgar Bennett when Holmgren was the coach.

We have been supporting Ol' Brett for 269 games, why stop now? Even if he plays for a team that we usually don't support, we still support the man. How can we help it?

He has been the joy of Packer football for 16 years. Ted and Mike have moved on and Aaron pulled one out against the Bears. I heard an announcer say Aaron Rodgers already has as many losing seasons as Brett Favre, let's hope he doesn't pass Favre in that catagory.

Happy New Year!

Now we are only hours away from full scale NFL kickoff. The key to the Packer season will be the lines. As always, the offense and defensive line will determine the season. The preseason has made Packer fans pretty hopeful. Rodgers looked fabulous- as all the starters did.

Of course the only problem is that the games didn't count yet. I think the Bears will bring out the best in the Pack in the opener.

Here's to Double D!!!

This is a year to celebrate the career of Donald Driver. He will surpass Sterling Sharpe with the most catches in the history of the Green Bay Packers. He already has the most catches at Lambeau Field. He also has the catch in consecutive games record. In two good yardage years he will surpass James Lofton for most yards for a receiver in Packer history. These are all great accomplishments especially for the likes of a 7th round draft pick in 1999.

What a great example and a consummate professional.
