Christmas Day Game Thread

[Ranching]

Rodgers has 4 interceptions this season.

Baker has 3 interceptions in the first half of this game….

Thanks for the help Baker.

Surprised that the browns are only down by 9

 

[fivetwos]

I'm still sitting here hoping Cleveland might win instead of watching XMAS movie reruns.

I'm the fool.

Same thing I guess tho....already know the ending.

That was the one where Byron Jones gave up huge catch on 4th and mile? Or something like that. Inthink Aaron rodgers was more "hurt" then.

No, you may be thinking about the Seattle playoff game a few years ago. This was in 2014 before Byron Jones arrived. This was the Dez catch game at Lambeau. Rodgers was hobbling around all day and still diced us up.

Name the team that has better skill guys on the same field at that caliber

Triplets implies that all 3 are on roughly equal platforms and at the best or near the best at their position in the NFL at QB, HB, WR.

Aaron Rodgers
Aaron Jones
Davante Adams

One of those 3 is not like the other. The Packers did just fine with AJ Dillon earlier this year... Jamaal Williams last year... Fat Lacy/Skinny Starks in the past. Jones is replaceable.

Aikman/Smith/Irvin were in that category in the 90s, with Aikman probably being slightly the weakest of the three.

Romo/Murray/Bryant were definitely in that category for two years in 2013, 2014.

Dak/Zeke/Dez were arguably in that category for one year in 2016, but it was clear Dez was declining.

Rodgers and Adams are in that tier, but Jones isn't. Jones is just another running back.

Yeah...but I will say the Packers don't look invincible

Without an injury we are in trouble against Green Bay.

 

[plasticman]

It's like they are saying, the INT's made the difference

The Browns running game could have set the pace. They can't do that now, down by two scores.

I agree, BM is handing them the game.

Pretty sure they still better stick by it.

They deserve worse...Mayfield is a turnover machine. All three of his picks were high school level INT's. I think the way OBJ went about getting his Daddy involved complaining about BM was kinda gutless but they weren't wrong. Mayfield kinda sucks.

 

[Buzzbait]

Lol. After a 1st half, in which Mayfield throws 3 INT's that results in 3 Packer TD's, the first halftime commercial features Baker's "house".

If he keeps throwing picks, he may be living in a tent.

Their defense isn't very good. They can be had if you just don't make mistakes.

Thats the standard abbreviation for bowel movement.

Add on as you see fit sir.

Totally disagree on Jones.

But nice write up none the less

 

[lurkercowboy]

That's not entirely true. He's not Brady. He's more like Mahomes, or pre-2020 Dak. He's no Lamar Jackson but can still run a bit if given the chance.

He is not immobile, like Drew Bledsoe for instance, but what makes him special is accuracy. Sadly, he is excellent at passing.

 

[MichiganCowboyFan]

Their defense is suspect, but you have to avoid turnovers to take advantage. Their offensive line is suspect, but you have to get to AR before he gets a chance to unload.

Jones was beat on a deep out route

No, you may be thinking about the Seattle playoff game a few years ago. This was in 2014 before Byron Jones arrived. This was the Dez catch game at Lambeau. Rodgers was hobbling around all day and still diced us up.

He is talking about the 2017 game where Jones was beat on a deep sideline pass by te Jared cook that resulted in mason crosby kicking a 51 yard field goal and packers advancing to the NFC championship game.

 

[ryanbabs]

Especially their defense. Luckily for them, the Browns QB is trash.

We’re in trouble against Green Bay unless the injury is to Rodgers and it keeps him out of the game. With our luck we’ll lose to his backup. In 2013 he was out and we lost to Matt Flynn who tossed 4 TD passes. When you looked at his stats you would’ve thought we faced Rodgers. That game really pissed me off!

 

[Runwildboys]

The Browns looked like they were just spinning around, hoping to accidentally make a tackle there. lol
