    Wow. Intense game. If a few tiny little things would have worked out the Pack could have ran away with this one, if the 2nd challenge would have been overturned like it defiantly should have been and/or if Rodgers wouldn't have been poked in the eye. But either way a wins a win.

    Some really good things to take from this game though. After 4 weeks of evidence I think we can say that Randall Cobb and James Jones are developing into great weapons. Benson is an absolute beast, couldn't be more excited for him to be a Packer. The Defense is improved greatly from last year, 27 points allowed against Drew Brees when his defense is last in the NFL will probably get you a win 75% of the time no matter what team you are.

    And lastly I still hate Finley.

    Finley blows. All talk, NO walk. With Jones and Cobb I think they may let Jennings walk after this year. If you can get him cheap OK, but if he wants big money, you let him walk, he's not helping himself by not staying healthy. Intense game is right, never been a part of crowd that booed so loud, and rightfully so. The refs, real and replacement are atrocious. If we have video replay, there is ZERO excuse to get any reviewed play wrong.

    Zack! Where the hell ya been man? I totally agree with everything you said here - still can't believe McCarthy did that first challenge - even Jordy knew he didn't have that ball. :fp: The refs were atrocious again, ANOTHER missed OPI call...and to the Packers of all teams. I'm just so happy they won at this point. Can't believe the Saints are back to being the aints thus far. Jones has really taken a huge step for the offense...we probably won't even need Jennings next year (it does hurt to say that). And yes...Finley still sucks.

    Should be a huge win this weekend...here's hoping!

    It was too close for sure.

    In other news...more reasons to hate Bears fans even more...we were watching the game at a huge sportsbook so there were fans of just about every team there. When the Saints would score, the Saints fans were cheering (as they should for their team) and the Bears fans would run over to us and get all crazy in our faces. Stay classy guys. :fp:

    You know, sometimes I wonder if you're a closet Bears fan. And if a day comes where I find out that you are, I'm coming up to Eau Claire and your visit with me won't be as nice as the one you had with the other Chicago peeps!!! :twisted:

    81 is a pretty nice guy. He's a Bears fan, right? Maybe you're just a little cranky. :lol:

    Haha I've been around, just not posting much. With Nelson Cobb and Jones I'd have to agree with you, they will be fine without Jennings, it's sad though he has such a great personality and I'm sure that he's been an awesome leader to those guys but it's time for him to move on. It's not even that Finley sucks, I think he's pretty great and McCarthy and Rodgers say he has the best work ethic of anyone on the team, but the dude needs a major attitude adjustment, he celebrates more when he gets a first down than most people do when they get a touchdown! Not cool.

    James Jones may be my new favorite Packer on Offense (Raji being my favorite defender, duh). The one and only imperfection he has ever had was dropping passes, has he dropped even one yet this year? Not that I remember, whereas Nelson and Finley have dropped multiple balls in multiple games. And Cobb is just so damn versatile, he can catch the ball, run the ball, return the ball, or even just stand in the backfield to distract the D and by Rodgers more time. I really like them both and can't wait to see what the future has in store for them.

    You know, now that you mention it, I don't think I can remember any Jones drops this year thus far! Even Driver's had a drop or two. And you are right about Finley...he is very talented but his hot-dogging just detracts from that and pisses me off. Cobb is our very own Devon Hester! I love that guy. I'm also very happy with the draft pick of Nick Perry - he's had some pretty great plays. I think between him and Matthews the D should be getting more solid. It's been getting better every game. There's still work to do but they have the talent to go all the way again imo.

    Interesting you should ask Will. I was buying my friends shots of Jameson all night on Saturday - all of them minus one are Bears fans. What you got now grasshopper?!
