i think

the north is gonna be won with a 9-7 record…just a hunch. chicago nor minnesota has yet to indicate they can put some consistent football together, so win or lose tonight, i will not be willing to crown either has nfc north champion.

so even though the pack lost, i dont think they’re out of it.

by rahulsriram on Nov 30, 2008 6:24 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

IF we win

It’s gonna be tough for Minnesota or GB to win.

1) Minnesota will lose the head-to-head tiebreaker with us; along with that, they’ll most likely lose the Williams boys AND have the toughest schedule here on out.

2) GB will still be two games behind us.

I'M A MAN! I'M 22!

by ChiFan13 on Nov 30, 2008 6:28 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, we will essentially have a...

2 game lead on Minnesota and Green Bay.

If we can pull a GB victory we would be 4 games up on them because we would hold the tie break with them based on division record.

Plus our schedule isn’t that electrifying down the stretch.

Kick it to me... I'm open!

He doesn't catch punts well

You have to have sure hands at punt return because there isn’t second opportunities to pick the ball up like there is on kick returns. He must of muffed too many punts in practice.

It is different on punts. Much higher, blows back and forth in the wind, guys all around you when you catch it. I know Hester was far from perfect, but at least Bennet has shown some big play ability if needed.

Kick it to me... I'm open!

Manning was terrific in games tho

Bennett was the one in training camp we were worried about. Minny’s ST is horrible….gotta stick it to em tonight. I figured Manning was the guy.

Hester needs to change it up

stop running sideways…teams are watching for that now…he has a better chance of breaking one by moving forward and breaking some tackles

I turn it back again to see a punt rolling out of bounds inside the 5 for Maynard.

Maybe I should switch back and forth to keep good plays for us coming.

but he needs to realize that other teams are slowing down and waiting for him to go sideways…he needs to take it upfield and make some people miss that way

Dear Williams boys,
We don’t care that you don’t respect Forte. No one respects you, because you have to cheat (aka take supplements or a masking agent) to play in the NFL. Also, stop jumping offsides.
