by Tim 12/18/2016 8:15:00 PM
Yes, but not a ton.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:15:05 PM
Barkley a Cutler protege

by Jpack 12/18/2016 8:15:15 PM
Looks like his ball is sailing a lot in the wind.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:15:27 PM
Did that ball sail or did the receiver not react fast enough?

by TRock 12/18/2016 8:15:30 PM
The receiver wasn't really open. Datone Jones was running with him underneath and I think Barkley tried to lead his receiver too far because of it.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:16:07 PM
Packers are now plus-10 in turnover margin over the past two games.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:16:32 PM
Poor throw by Barkley but turnovers have driven this Packer revival these past several games

by Skip Thomas 26 12/18/2016 8:16:38 PM
Almost like woodson used to say about Cutler.....We know who he is.

by COFred 12/18/2016 8:16:41 PM
Tom, nice article on cold weather and throwing. Barkley's lack of fastball & tight spiral perhaps leading to INT against the wind?

by Sam 12/18/2016 8:16:44 PM
Lions playing for two wins today? Beat the Giants today and maybe Dallas takes next week off. Lose today and maybe get Dallas playing hard next week.

Very quick cut by Michael to put this game away. I thought it was Montgomery at first and I didn't think he was that quick.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:17:44 PM
Bears can't tackle today at all.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:17:56 PM
Great stiff-arm n De'von LeBlanc.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:18:16 PM
Packers have 20 carries for 219 yards and 3 TDs rushing today (10.9 average).

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:19:06 PM
Ty Montgomery and Christine Michael have combined for 18 carries for 202 yards and three touchdowns.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:20:18 PM
Dec football.....textbook

by Pete 12/18/2016 8:20:23 PM
I really like this guy's quickness and speed. Excellent pickup for GB and a dimension we have not seen in a Packer running back in some time.

by Skip Thomas 26 12/18/2016 8:20:25 PM
Is the the bears defense that bad against the run or are they just having bad day?

by Joe 12/18/2016 8:20:32 PM
They've been up and down, but the strength of their team has been defense this year.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:20:48 PM
Tom, when does MM replace Rodgers with Hundley? When would you?

by Mike 12/18/2016 8:20:50 PM
Pretty darn soon.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:20:54 PM
Maybe start of the fourth quarter, which would be the next series.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:21:08 PM
Tom, Could Michael be another AHman Green?

by Ron R 12/18/2016 8:21:13 PM
No, Montgomery could maybe.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:21:21 PM
if det loses this week and next and pack beat minn do the pack win the division and can rest in 17?

by bdub 12/18/2016 8:21:47 PM
No, they would be tied at 9-6.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:21:58 PM
Interesting they are trying to run since they have not had much success with that today - guess they don't want to see any more picks

by DLG 12/18/2016 8:22:09 PM
Expect zero passing yards for GB 4th quarter, all running plays

by Bamapack62 12/18/2016 8:22:12 PM
I sure like the combo of Montgomery Bd Michael in the backfield.

by Lincoln Packer 12/18/2016 8:22:24 PM
Take Rodgers out now? That's some early chicken countin'.

by Cy Clone 12/18/2016 8:22:37 PM
Pack must win out. Period.

by Joe 12/18/2016 8:22:43 PM
Please take out Clay, Monty, and Rodgers... thoughts Tom ?

by AZBadger 12/18/2016 8:22:48 PM
Matthews yes, Montgomery no, Rodgers yes.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:23:07 PM
More DET, MINN, updates please, just to enhance the blog experience

by Bamapack62 12/18/2016 8:23:12 PM
Have packers now doubled their rushing TDs for the year?

by Anon 12/18/2016 8:23:19 PM
For running backs.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:23:24 PM
Big first down for Giants!

by Ftundra 12/18/2016 8:23:33 PM
Window on Starks has closed?

by JS 12/18/2016 8:23:35 PM
Pretty much.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:23:41 PM
Giants driving, 8 minutes left, up 10-6.

by Hammer 12/18/2016 8:23:49 PM
10-6 Giants. 1st down at Lion 36 . less than 8 minutes to go

by Ron R 12/18/2016 8:23:56 PM
Start of the fourth quarter here.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:24:04 PM
HHCD was going for No. 3 there. But there's a flag down. Holding on Randall.

by Tom Silverstein 12/18/2016 8:24:26 PM
Starks doesn't return next year and Packers draft a RB? Good class available this year
