We will find out soon whether or not Rivera will last. Black Monday will be upon us sooner than we expect. If he by chance makes the playoffs anything less the NFCC I think Tepper should bring in a GM that wants a specific vision and new young blood to take reigns of the franchise.

the dude that just lost because he took the ball out of Aaron Rogers hand's on 4th and 2 and put the game on the shoulders of his crap defense? same dude that has squandered the prime of one of the best QBs ever?

 

nah

It wasn’t terrible to punt. GB was getting stopped on 3rd and short multiple times late in that game. If you turn the ball over at the 33 you 100% lose. There’s atleast a better chance you stop Seattle and get the back only down 3.

Why would they 100% lose if they turned the ball over? Say they did turn it over and hold Seattle to a FG. At least they'd get the ball back with a chance to score a touchdown.

Taking the ball out of your hall of fame QBs hands with under five minutes to go and one timeout is a dumb conservative decision unless you have an elite defense.

They scored a touchdown on the previous drive. Letting them have the ball at 33 or closer is a guaranteed loss. 

 

Offense only scored 3 points all of the second half. Now you are asking them to drive down 75 yards with only 1 timeout and 2 minute warning. And this line of argument is completey moot if Seahawks get a TD then the game is definitely out of reach.

"Mike McCarthy is trash"

If winning 62% of your games over 13 seasons and going to the playoffs 9 of those 13 seasons is trash....

If a Super Bowl victory is trash.....

When the Carolina Panthers begin to build a legacy of success anywhere close to the Packers, then one might say something. Otherwise, don't say a fugging thing.

I'm giving the ball to my Hall of Famer QB every time. Especially with hindsight seeing as how Seattle easily ran out the clock lol.

My choice would be Mike Smith. I love having that guy in the division, just not on my team’s coaching staff.

We've had this question a couple of times this season.

My choice would be Dan Campbell, the assistant head coach for the Saints.

Hey, keep your hand out my pond, pal!

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
