Change is coming/Now is my time – Forty six and 2, Tool
The talking heads – the analysts, the “insiders” – at ESPN won’t like hearing this. The folks at Fox Sports won’t, either. And the guys on the NFL Network, well, they’re really going to hate this. But it must be said.
His name is not Brett Favre. [...]
A football season is an incredibly fragile bit of life.
At any point, things can go off the rails. One loss, one injury, one bit of infighting – heck, one bad coaching decision – can cause a team to bag it and begin planning their respective vacations.
Going by those guidelines, there is simply no reason the [...]
Gang, as I begin writing this, it’s now 11:28 p.m.
In other words, this one’s going to be semi-brief (Man, I used to love night games. Not as much now that my alarm goes off at 5:58 a.m. every morning). Don’t worry – we’ll have a ton more on this later Monday.
For now, here are my thoughts [...]
Think back, for a second, to late August. What were your worries regarding the 2010 Green Bay Packers?
Were you worried about the offense? No, not at all. The group was deep, talented and just hitting its stride. Scoring 30 a week? Why not?
What you worried about was the defense. You worried about the pass rush, [...]
I was going to wait until later tonight to post my thoughts.
Sorry, I couldn’t wait. The Green Bay Packers’ 9-0 win over the New York Jets was just too sweet (don’t worry, I’ll be back with more later this evening, anyways).
Here are my quick thoughts on the win, in no particular order:
Roughly two hours after [...]
For a good portion of Monday, I found myself thinking about what Sunday night meant to me.
Namely, I was trying to find the primary emotion I was feeling following the Green Bay Packers’ heart-stopping 28-24 win over the Minnesota Vikings at Lambeau Field.
Was it jubilation? Relief? Vindication?
In some ways, I could say “yes” to all three. Emphatically, in [...]
As I sit down to write this, the clock has just struck 12:37 a.m.
In other words, I’ll be keeping this one brief (don’t worry – we’ll have a whole lot more reaction to this one later today).
Here are some quick thoughts on the Green Bay Packers’ 28-24 win over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday night [...]
The 2010 season was supposed to be the year of Aaron Rodgers, the year he joined the truly elite group of signal-callers in the NFL.
His face was on the cover of every football-related magazine over the summer. Fans, analysts and media members alike gushed over what he would do. His time had come.
Six games into [...]
We’re camped out at OBOD’s Washington bureau (also known as the Casa de Gene, as Lempesis calls it), trying to recover from today’s 16-13 Packers loss to the Redskins. Adam, Chris and I will have more in the morning, including the possible maiden voyage of our OBOD podcast (we think it’ll be fun, and the [...]
Four games is four games.
It’s a sample, a taste. And whether a team’s start is atrocious, fantastic, or somewhere in between, four games is not enough to determine how things will go the rest of the way.
But it is enough to paint a picture of what kind of team you have.
The Green Bay Packers - a team [...]
