Ha. This first team Colts secondary is making Matt Flynn look like an all star too.

:D

Did you not watch him last year? he was outstanding then too. let's face it. he's better than our QB. and some of you refuse to admit it. no sense kidding ourselves.Rodgers is a freaking machine. the Colts secondary is not a bad one. thats an excuse for how good Rodgers is. Greg Jennings is not even playing tonight.

Oh, I guess Rogers won couple of playoffs games last year and he didn't fumble away the ball by holding it too long? My bad, I guess I was watching some other QB with GB.

Sarcasm aside, He is definetly good. But I don't think he is in elite category. One QB, I grudgingly think might be better than Romo is Phillip Rivers. I don't like some of his antics at all, but boy he is good. It helps that he perhaps has the best QB Guru in NFL as OC and Head Coach I guess.

Wow, Flynn looks pretty good. Seems like he's really improved his arm strength from college.

The observation has little to do with wins and losses. You cannot tell me, in all intellectual honesty, you wouldn't be more pleased if the Cowboys offense was having the type of preseason the Packers offense is.

Obviously, it's very early. I recall 2006 when the Cowboys absolutely dominated the Saints in preseason, and then the Saints came back in December and eviscerated the Cowboys.

I would absolutely love it if the cowboys looked extra sharp/crisp during the preseason. However if it doesn't happen, it doesn't mean we're a bad team that's in for a long season, it just means we're a banged up football team who's being extra vanilla and trying to get healthy.

Aaron Rodgers is a really good Qb, you'd be stupid to say otherwise but am i supposed to slob over him because he's picking apart a colts preseason D? I'll slob over him when he manages to beat the vikings(w/ favre) and lead his team to a division title and a playoff win.

Not at all.

However, the Cowboys have Super Bowl aspirations while the Packers actually look like a Super Bowl team.

Obviously, it's just preseason, but one can't help but be a little disheartened.

Take the over on Colts games this year.

It looks like the Colts put your high school defense out there and then forgot to tell them the exact plays the Packers were going to run.:D

why what happened?

He has been flagged twice for not doing some weird new thing you have to do now that the refs are behind.(Thats all I really know about WHY they flagged him lol) Anyway, he was getting in the refs face pretty good the second time.

I dont like the packers one bit. but this guy is flatout unreal. i will say it right now. he is one of the top 4 QB's in the NFL right now.behind Manning, Brady and Brees. he is making this look so easy.
I said it last year. If his offensive line gives him just a little more time than he had last year he is going to be close to unstoppable. I sure hope we have a dominate defense this year because right now I don't think we are a better team than Green Bay.

Not just because of this game, but there are 5 quarterbacks in this league that I think can currently be considered truly elite:

Manning, Brees, Rivers, Rogers, Brady

Romo is an average franchise quarterback. Which isn't all that bad, there are only 15-20 franchise quarterbacks in the league, so he's a top 10 qb.

Aaron Rodgers is going to have another huge year... Green-Bay is very fortunate to have found Favre's replacement so fast.

Was just about to ask you where Brady was. ;)
