All week I bought into it, that Norv was different, that he was gutsy, that the team just needed time to adjust, I started to believe and now all I can do is think about taking another shower because I feel dirty.
SD and sd, you both make valid points. The game would have been better and in fact they might have won with their stars in the game. LT and Gates are their redzone bread and butter and it would have been a different game. I think all of the trick plays involve LT because he can lull the db’s in when he touches the ball. They still did us proud with backups and after seeing New England Struggle against our pre-season line up I was rooting for Green Bay so we could have an epic, good vs evil superbowl. WTF, how did the pack fall apart in the second half offensively, last week they looked like the undoing of the patsies. Now I am going to have to hear about the greatest team of all time for the rest of my life.
The good thing is that they actually have more talent going into next year than they did coming into this year because cromartie, sproels, chambers and jackson all look better than they ever have.
But I goota agree with SD, after about the second or third time they got within ten yards of the end zone and the camera cut to Lt. on the sideline and then a shot of Norv, I threw up a little in my mouth.
Oh well, if you would have told me at the half way point in the season when they were at .500 that they would beat the colts with Billy Voleck and then lose a fairly close game to arguably the best team to ever take the field in the AFC championship, without LT or Gates, that they would go deeper into the post season than the Jags, I would have called you crazy. I hope I’m wrong about Norv, I really do, I don’t think I can do this for that many more years.
