It's game over, it's not really down to Eli, its down to OBJ not catching the ball.

Ty is lost for next game will be a big blow. Huge disadvantage.
that's a live ballClaymaker. Only one alive there.
Giants are drunk. Go home. Or better still, go Miami.
Wtf happened?
If there aren't 120+ points in the Packers-Cowboys game, I'll be disappointed
Yes, actually they are. Just because one team that is decent happens to use them doesn't mean they aren't obsolete. There's a reason lots of teams don't even have fullbacks on the roster.
Ben McAdoo is going to slam a dozen keystone lights after this game.
So glad were not getting conservative here.
MVP. MVP, MVP!

You don't play to the whistle? And these people are making more than me.
Incredibly, Rodgers has been better since Nelson went out injured.
I fancy Packers to go to Dallas & win. When Rodgers plays like this, not many defenses can deal with him.

RIIIIIIIIIIIIP!
And having Ty back is good news.
And having Ty back is good news.
Dropped catches aside by OBJ, defence has been helpful and given Rodgers a platform after our offence was blowing chunks first half.
Having Adams as a deepthreat helps and obviously Cobb back.
O Line always give Rodgers time, just need receivers to get free.
They work, TD just now. Teams should use them. More often. It's just a different strategy.
Yup. I was worried. Beware Cowboys!
Your argument is that fullbacks aren't obsolete because a fullback just ran for a 1 yard touchdown?
Maybe, you just didn't read my post properly. Kuhn was an integral part of the offence and now Ripkowski continues the tradition. So.Your argument is that fullbacks aren't obsolete because a fullback just ran for a 1 yard touchdown?

They really aren't. They are bit part players.
Yay! Packers win!
Not in GB.
Yeah, GB use fullbacks and not just once a game. They are important at times. Kuhn was huge and agreed, Rips taken over his place.
Yes they are, you are being willfully ignorant. Ripkowski played 26% of the Packers' offensive snaps this year. Kuhn played 26% in 2015, 18% in 2014, 28% in 2013, and 33% in 2012. They are bit part players.
Shouldn't they get on the field more than 1/4 of the time if they are "huge" and "integral"?
Thats too simplistic. They will be used on short yardage (which is why Rip should have been given the 4th and 1 not Ty). Kuhn was big for Packers offence on those plays at important times. (with Rip now replacing him)
Anyway, not getting into this if you dont agree. Im happy Packers won

Except Ripkowski literally just failed on the 3rd and 1 before that.
Is that really your argument? OBJ failed to catch as well Maybe they should stop using him eh?
Absurd argument...right?
Go pack Go

No, my point is that fullbacks are obsolete in the modern NFL and only useful as bit part players.
Still on track here. Not expecting any big surprises next week, except perhaps with the Seattle-Atlanta game.
Went with:
Texans
Seahawks
Steelers
Packers
Now going for:
Packers
Patriots
Falcons
Steelers
Also, Rodgers / packers were -8 on offensive yards going into the 2nd quarter. Managed to turn that around to 400+ yards.
Was hoping Randall would score that TD lol.

Yeah. Did he stumble? Thought he was going all the way!
A Packers-Seahawks championship could defnitely happen right now, but so can Falcons-Cowboys... The NFC is wide open at this point, four legitimate contenders each with their own strengths and weaknesses.
Steelers at Chiefs will also be an intruiging matchup. The only certainty right now is a Pats win imo.

Agree with this. As good as Houston's D is, Pats losing would be a major shock. The other games are all very close/difficult to call & could go either way.
Texans are gonna win. You heard it here first. And last. Cos it ain't happening. But I can hope.
We ALL want it to happen...but, no chance. They're going to get beat handily. I know that D is playing really well atm - but, Brady and the Pats will wear them out in the 4th and it'll end up being a comfortable victory.

Well, this, and the fact that Pats D is a bit underrated. They will prevent the Texans from producing significantly on offense.
The Texans can do that all by themselves tbf.
