Week 9 Monday Night Game, Packers vs Lions

[Hoenheim]

NFC North matchup tonight. Somewhat relevant for us since we play their whole division this season, we beat the Lions and lost to the Bears. and we're playing the Packers and Vikings later in the season.

Looks like the Vikings have a decent grip on 1st place in the division but otherwise, the other 3 teams are all a jumble and could all by vying for a wildcard.

What may fug us over if we lose a few more games is that all of our losses are against the NFC (Saints, Eagles, Bears) , and almost one team from each division in the conference too lol.  Dont have to worry about the NFC West though, as the only team of that division that we've played this year will have been the 49ers, which obviously was our first win of the season.  Our next 2 games are against the AFC but then our remaining 5 games are against NFC opponents. That final stretch of the season will be absolutely huge!  And the Packers are one of the teams we play in that stretch..

Pulling for the lions.  I want the packers buried so no incentive is there for Rodgers coming back.

Damn I just realized that we haven't gone on more than a 2 game winning streak all season long. Hopefully we break that against the Dolphins next Monday Night..

We really should win the next two. Miami for sure. Jets could be a scrappy game, especially seeing what they just did to Buffalo and it's defense.

quick score by the Lions.

Packers offense looks very flat.

Lol. We’ve lost yards on a first down run probably around 2-3 times in every game. 

Only 2-3?

Yeah go Lions no doubt about it. (14 - 0) good so far.

[pantherj]

I'd rather watch a live abortion than watch Stewart run up the middle, or that pitch that guarantees a 5 yard loss.

[Hoenheim]

Lazy effort by Adams on that deep shot by Hundley. Not the best pass, but a good WR would have layed out and got that poo 

[Hoenheim]

LOLOL Green Bay with a last second field goal with time expiring. WELL DONE. 

[Hoenheim]

Well its apparent the Packers are absolutely aenemic without Rodgers 

[LinvilleGorge]

How was that not pass interference?
