Can we see clearly now where our expectations should be with our young team?

    Yeah Baby!!, we got that win in lambeau:knucks: to all.

    1st year Dcord, 2nd year Qb, 3rd youngest team in the league overall, and with jerry and Odrick back in the lineup next week, I think were the youngest starting unit in the league, pretty sure..lets enjoy the growth process, and see how far we can get with them this year..Jmo.

    I don't know about you guy's but man, I can't wait til we get out of this stretch of playing 4 of the top 5, 6 qb's in the league in our first 6 game's..I'am sure our young defense would agree..lol.

    Can't wait for our big young guard to get back in the lineup...He will improve the athleticism of the interior, which is something that was glaringly obvious to me today..I believe its the reason why are run game just doesn't look quite right...Berger, Pat Q, and Incognito are pretty weak in that dept..lol..glad to have our young rook in there next week.

    I would like to take this time to say that i have been one of those people that really gets on Channing's case. Iam glad he shut my mouth today..

    The guy seems to be our leader ya'll..i loved his excitement on the field today, and he had a bee line on a pick 6 on the screen play where he was in traffic...Good game Channing..

    I want our 1st round pick on the field. he's really gonna help us..his skillset is needed.

    Hmmmmmm, we sure our a good road team..:shifty:....:lol:

    Chad had a 82 QBR today, I think we just have to let him play thru some things..he's at a pivitol stage of the growth process..still shaky, while flashing ability and winning.

    Wow did he have a beautiful pocket for which to throw from, all game.

    What an interesting situation the whole ronnie brown on the sideline is...A downhill runner on offense ala Mark Ingram might be the way to go next april..not just to get him on our team but to keep him away from new england..lol.

    Ronnie and ricky played pretty good....pretty good needs to get better.

    No wildcat.....are ya'll happy?...lol....I still think its a mistake to take that skillset away from Ronnie brown and I disagree with it's disappearance..but I will digress.

    LETS TALK SOME MOTHER GRABBIN CAM WAKE SON!!!

    Superstar...period...and the man needs an official nickname...he deserves it..

    I love his celebration...Hes a freakin Wolfman man.. I watched him literally pick players up off the ground....All pro outside linebacker...His open field tracking today on the QB was excellent, did not get deeked out...he just missed on a few others, but he was there.

    Lol..how bout our crazy new special teams coach, liked his on field enthusiasm.... Tony needed a comrad on the sideline..

    Iam not sure if our new coach can fix the delay in Brandon field's catch and release..There is a slight extra step, or hinge if you will, in his action....

    Nolan had 1 good return but I think it had more to do with the hole that was created, cause the rest of the times he looked stiff and not very instinctive...but I'll take him over the cobster..lol

    Sean Smith had a good game, I didn't see him in a trailing position much today.

    VD...not so much...Rodgers is great and is gonna get his yards, but I watched one half *** effort play that bothered me..he allowed a lot more yards then should of been allowed....dont get cocky now VD..you need to come home and play well..

    3 and 0 on the road, 0 and 2 at home...Does my theory carry anymore weight?...lol, man I hope iam crazy on that one, we gotta support and help our young team get over a big hump at home next week....we've got to have the same energy that we brought the last 2 homegame's..remember their young, and figuruing sh$# out on the fly, lets be there for them..and ill bet you this, we will get their best effort, because I know their coach feels like they let us down.

    Chris clemons had serious tackling issue's today, and the Bullfrog is not croakin anywhere..iam sure it's not a coincidence.

    Don't believe we dropped the football today..All three receivers were productive, all three made tough catches..Henne needs to take them out to a steak dinner.

    Man do we need a scat back..

    I swear Dan Carpenter put a slight fade on that game winning overtime kick, with good hair doing so.. he's so good...and did you see him change the directory of the 1st field goal with the 2nd kick because of penalty, completely was controlling the football with his foot..

    Benny sapp made a big play in the game on that seam route..

    Sanchez really threw the footbal really well today..

    Norv Turner should be available soon...maybe off cordinator next year?

    Anyone think we might add a player before the deadline?

    Patrick Brown was inactive today...I didn't even know he was alive..lol

    Ronnie Brown got that damn first down on that 4th down.

    Our young team has played some good teams, with great qb's, our 2nd half schedule looks like we might be able to compete for 10 win's, which I think is a successful season for the 3rd youngest team in the league...if we get in, then great, we will have exceeded expectations..

    I cant wait to read the game thread..

    I dunno, maybe "The Nightmare you can't aWaken from"?

    Only real concern is the Dolphins playing here next week; at home. Also, the knees of Dansby, Marshall and whatever bug hit Lou today.

    I think you're right....we have 5 tough weeks ahead but we also have 4 gimmies towards the end of the year. If we pick up 2-3 wins over the next five weeks we'll be decent shape going into the divisional games against NY and NE...we just need both of them to stop pulling out last minute wins so we can catch up.

    It's great to see another strong ground game in the late quarters though...eating up that clock has been a key for all 3 road wins. I still don't like Henning, but I think he did pretty darn good today.

    Wake's nickname should be Gumby.

    Home win needed, yes. Odrick and Jerry back for next week needed, yes.

    I fear a bit for next week because Henne had no pass rush coming his way all day. This will not occur next week and it will come from everywhere. The team is young and I agree there is a learning curve; we have to start scoring more TDs and less FGs to pull ahead from teams. Heck, BUF has more TDs than us (10:9). The team is progressing and I have this feeling inside that these close games only help the team's development...at the expense of our sanity. On to PIT :up: Lets make it happen!

    PS: Lawrence Taylor had no nickname that I can think of aside from his initials ("LT"). Wake needs no nickname, but if you insist on one then call him CW [​IMG]

    The Alarm Clock, because he’ll ring your bell.

    Eh, it’s got potential.

    There we go Deej!

    What I want to know about Cam Wake is, how can he be blocked down to one knee, and still pop up and still fight with the blocker and make a play..from one knee?

    I've watched a ton of football, and have not seen that from an edged rusher, I've seen huge DT's do it, but not OLB's

    A new Jevon Kearse would be a step in the right direction. I find myself frequently yelling: "Cameron Freaking Wake."

    That is what fmr CFL teammate Aaron Hunt called him in that CFL DPOY video, he was "the Freak".

    But Deej, rhomboids?

    Seriously?

    BTW, did you notice Henne turning on the after burners and running for a first down?

    Great analysis Deej! Thanks for sharing and my suggestion for our stud OLB is

    Cameron "The Earthquake" Wake because when he hits they all fall down...:up:

    the projection that some of us had for him after his first 2 game's last year has come to fruition, he is an elite football player..and the world is missing an incredible story..maybe this week some of the analysts will figure it out and do a very nice story on the'' Freakin freak''...

    The flashes in preseason were excellent...he took over game 5.

    dude, his back is ridiculous, ultimate physical specimen..

    ..I seriously laughed out loud after watching the replay...he was all bowlegged, lol....but he got it, and I want him to do it more often..

    His body has a lot of improvement to go..

    If it makes you feel better, Henne has a history of lighting up teams that blitz heavily. A perfect example is what he's done the Jets, who are known for blitzing from all directions.
