What a great guy. Watching his former understudies and wishing them well. We should have a couple pages honoring the best QB

I always knew that deep down that Rodgers was a bad guy.

There were always plenty of hints (stomach punching the lady with cancer, spreading STDs to the peaceful people of Green Bay by bringing Munn to town, etc.) but Packer fans always had an excuse ready for each of them.

But that picture says it all.

Fuck you Aaron Rodgers. I hope you break all your bones this week and become a backup to Jay Cutler.

I don't necessarily fault him for feeling the way he does, some guys just aren't wired to win at all costs, even though he has all of the talent in the world.

Having said that...that "risk" he is afraid of is why you're paid the money you are paid. Comes with the territory, unfortunately he just doesn't have what it takes and that is sad given his talent. The signs were certainly there last year during the playoffs.

Funny part is, if he just changes the reason to "wanting to make sure I'm healthy for the playoffs," nobody bats an eye and would consider that a good reason.

Now she's infiltrating Bucks games. Rodgers keep that witch away from Parker. That's our future dammit.

There was some mention of him wanting to become part owner of the Bucks
Also I think the scenario is why Hawk still has some leverage with the team. They're too close as friends.
Rodgers probably has a clause in his contract that says Hawk can't leave the team until he's physically unable to walk off the field.

Detroit Lions second look: Teryl Austin continues to cause problems for opponents with pre-snap looks

The Detroit Lions defense continues to hum along.

Following the team's 20-16 win against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, Detroit continues to rank first in total defense, first in scoring defense and is top-three against the pass and the run.

Clearly without good players making plays, none of this is possible. Ndamukong Suh, Ezekiel Ansah, DeAndre Levy and James Ihedigbo all had monster performances against the Dolphins.

But coordinator Teryl Austin (and the rest of the defensive staff), also deserve credit for putting those players in the best position to succeed.

One of the more noticeable differences this season is the complexity of pre-snap alignments at the line of scrimmage and the mismatches they create for the Lions.

Let's take a quick look at three examples against Miami, including my favorite, from the first quarter.

After putting the Dolphins behind the sticks by blowing up a reverse on first down, Miami is faced with a third-and-12. Knowing a run is unlikely, the Lions put just five in the box and spread the front, bunching Suh and Ansah wide to the left side.

You can only imagine what the right tackle is thinking.

On the snap, both crash down inside, but as the right tackle engages Suh, Ansah twists behind the All-Pro defensive tackle and has a free lane to Tannehill since the running back runs a route instead of staying back to help in protection.

The result, a sack and loss of 11 yards

The article has pictures and highlights different presnap schemes that Coach Austin uses. On my phone so I can't post the pics.

Also no work today. Job wasn't quite ready to go and we can't work in 20 degree weather with wind chill. Holy fuck is it cold.

Great minds think alike because that's exactly what I was thinking.

You can tell its a Bucks game by the confusion and despair on the faces in the crowd.

Carolina is somewhat delusional for sure. However they do have probably the best wide receiver since Dez Bryant.

All I see is a picture of Rodgers being polite to the league's only female quarterback. He doesn't want to be labeled a bigot after all!

Man I am looking at the All-22s for the Eagles 9 sacks and wow. They had a lot of them on cover-1 or cover-2 and didn't even need to blitz. The play from the DE/DTs is unreal. Cox is such a beast.

Ehhh...I'm all for confidence, but KB's incredibly inconsistent right now.

Too many lapses of concentration, easy drops, dogging it (or completely quitting) on plays after he completes his routes, sometimes not even completing his route (see first pick on Monday night).

He manages to pack that all between incredible superhuman catches and miraculous highlight plays though, and the stats are all good so it appears that he's been playing better than he actually has.

For my money, I'm taking Watkins and Odell "Ol Dirty Bastard" Beckham Jr. over him.

I agree with all this, but I still like Kelvin and think he'll be a great one in due time.

This rookie WR class all around is amazing - Watkins, Beckham, Benjamin, Matthews, Hurns, John Brown...lotta good ones.

It's early with this draft class so my comments on Kelvin Benjamin are probably just as valid as anyone else's opinion.

It was definitely a good year for WRs though.

the amount of people that actually care or would be offended by something like that is miniscule and they know it.

Per tweet by Mike Jurecki: #Cardinals have won five in a row vs. Lions, and 10 of the last 13 meetings, including last year in week two 25-21 @UOPXStadium. #DETvsAZ

Let's make it 6 in a row! #HOStanton! The nice thing about Detroit having such a high rated defense this year is that it will be a decent test to get an idea of how Stanton will measure up going forward. Granted, he hasn't played since week 5 so I'm not going to jump on him if he doesn't come out blazing. That Smokey Brown TD last week instilled some confidence. Go Cards!

Also, we apparently have the second most difficult remaining schedule in the NFC, yikes! Looks like Seattle has the most difficult so at least there's that as consolation. Hope Wussel and the Chickens continue to play like shit when we play next week! Lynch won't be running all over this run D to bail little wussel! That's next week though, for now, the Lions.
