Comments on: McCarthy to stick with the starters? http://packergeeks.wordpress.com/2009/12/31/mccarthy-to-stick-with-the-starters/ All Things Green Bay Packers Tue, 21 May 2013 08:09:40 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: PackerBelle http://packergeeks.wordpress.com/2009/12/31/mccarthy-to-stick-with-the-starters/#comment-8761 Sun, 03 Jan 2010 21:48:51 +0000 http://packergeeks.wordpress.com/?p=4489#comment-8761 I don’t think MN is likely to win the Super Bowl. The Giants were mailing it in and the Vikes have always been good at home. But for them to put together 3 good games against good teams (assuming they have a first round bye) neccessary to win the SB, I don’t see likely. Especially given how they have been playing lately. Yes, they destroyed the Giants but the Giants haven’t been good this year and were mailing it in. It would be like saying the Packers were going to win the SB because they whipped Seattle last week.

Both scenarios that have the Packers playing someone else are contingent on a Queenie loss. 24-zip and climbing in the 2nd qtr.

I like that – I think the Cardinals are the best matchup for the playoffs. Look for a vinilla game from bpth sides today.

They’ve lost their last 3 road games, twice at a couple out-of-the-playoffs teams. How do you think they’ll do on the road in the playoffs… they could very easily be going to Philly in the divisional round.

And, yes, I’m petty enough that it makes me feel better to use them. Oh well.

Go Pack.

Especially if Vikes win before us I say show the Cardinals nothing new, play starters on a limited basis, esp. Rodgers, Woodson, Collins and those that have had injury problems (Tauscher, Clifton, Bigby). Pickett is sitting anyway. Give reps to Jackson, Green, Flynn, Q. Johnson. We may move down to 6 seed with a loss but does it really matter much?

They needed a roster spot to sign a 3rd QB as they are going to sit Brees this weekend. They might resign him after this weekend when they can let the reserve QB go.

I’ve been here all the time.

There was nothing really to add to all the rhapsodic and deserved Cheesepuddin’head comments.

Of course I want GB to win…but win or lose, I just find Favre more compelling to watch than the entire Packers team. And if that brands me as a Judas/Brent fan, so be it. I won’t don sackcloth and ashes and Life as I know it will continue as before.

Btw, I’m surprised some erudite Cheesepuddin’head couldn’t coin better Favre sobriquets than the juvenile Judas or Brent.

Welcome back oh sardonic one. If there is a Packers vs Vikes game–who are you going to pull for?
