We've cut it real close two weeks in a row

Seems as though this offense, once we start scoring TDs in the Redzone, we were 2-7 in the RZ today, we are going to be a great offense. That loss would have really stung had we not pulled it out. To out gain a team by 235 yrds in a half and only come away with 10 points with 5 trips into the RZ, would really have hurt. BUT these guys fight and win. Wow.
Like to see this.

The packers had tons of close games last year but got it together at the end. This team looks to have some young talent on D and a couple good running backs and some WR and TE talent. If they learn to play through and make red zone plays, we can make some noise at the end of the season.

C, I am not trying to look that far ahead yet. I want to so bad, but I am staying level headed about this season. Not trying to get my expectations high, as of yet. I do like what I see, and this is a team that could pull something like that off, as could quite a few teams this year.

The Packers were my pick last year, and I was completely retreating from the pick in like week 5 or 6, and all the way till the end of the year. I only came back on board when they decisively beat the Eagles in the first week of the playoffs. It seemed as though they had found "it" again.

C BTW my daughter just turned 1! (Why I missed watching the game today.)

THANKS! And yes it did, almost to quick. The wife was a little depressed as the day neared. All is good though, and she realises this is just part of the process.

Sorry for the momentary thread highjack. Back to football!
