I wanted Hughes. Everette Brown too. I was right on Clay Matthews at least. I would STILL want him over Darius ******* Butler.

That's pretty cool about Branch. People say we're a spread the ball offense, but you have to give he and Welker a ton of credit this year because they've been the main cogs in the machine.

[Jvig43]

Welkers come back really strong after a sub par first half.

Jonathan Wilhite to the IR. More Darius Butler....

Counter move is signing Louis Leonard, who I think can help us out a bit.

[Jvig43]

Everytime Butler is in, he just gets abused. How did we ever think he would be a starter coming into this year.

[ElectricEye]

My thoughts on Butler. I really think he's garbage. He can't stop him self from holding/interfering when the ball is in the air. I hope he proves me wrong, but he's been consistently bad when he's in there. Towards the end of last year he played pretty well, but god this has been a tough year for him.

[Jvig43]

He just gets abused and targeted whenever he's in. Thank God we have McCourty. Oh how wrong I was with that pick.

[ElectricEye]

Well, the problem is this makes it less likely we can rest McCourty this week. We're short a corner now and we signed a linemen.

[Jvig43]

Meh if Rodgers doesnt play we don't need McCourty.

McCourty among those that didn't practice today.

[descendency]

Rodgers may not play and it may snow...

100-0?

[Nalej]

Damn, we have no many people on IR
Here's to Butler picking up his play

Seriously, when is it time we start crying about our IR like the Packer fans do?

Snow is indeed in the forecast.

[Don Vito]

Yeah but they still have Clay Matthews, Charles Woodson, and some other scary defenders. Our offense has been rolling but the Packers defense will be an interesting matchup for our offense. BJ Raji on Koppen should be no fun either.

Very good points, yeah. Matthews on Light will be a ******* nightmare.

Snow favors our OL.

Also a good point. That was a big reason we slowed down the Bears pass rush the other week.

[Nalej]

[ElectricEye]

But have you heard that the Packers have injuries? Lot's of them.

[proshoota25]

yeah snow fall looks pretty good right now.... near 4-6 inches.... but will be a wet snow. this obviously is subject to change a good amount as we get closer, but looks like snow will fall most of the day, with some periods of lighter stuff, and as of now, pick up right around game time. sweet

[ElectricEye]

Alright man. Two snow games in a row. We haven't had snow in the area yet either, so that will be neat for me too(live 10 mins from the stadium).

no doubt itll be fun

[Jvig43]

I can't believe there's only three weeks left of the regular season.

[ElectricEye]

It's been a quick one to be sure, but that's not a bad thing. Last year felt a whole lot longer.

This year is certainly been a great one for Pats fans thus far. It would be great to have the most winning team of the decade close it out with a Lombardi trophy.
