San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Should be a good one. The spread is Packers minus 3 but I'm taking Seahawks to win outright. Seattle enjoys a good home field advantage and are a very talented and physical football team. I believe their strengths can negate the Packers strengths and that their physicality on offense will exploit the Packers questionable defense. As I've said before, I don't like Pete Carroll as a person but I think he's done a very good job in Seattle. Also, two of my favorite rookies, Russell Wilson and Bruce Irvin will be featured in this game. Packers sending extra rushers after the passer. Looks like the game plan is to really pressure Wilson. They'll have to contain his scrambling ability though or he'll really hurt them with his legs.
NoSaint Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Late to the predictions but ill take the pack and likely by more than 3.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 25, 2012 Author Posted September 25, 2012 Late to the predictions but ill take the pack and likely by more than 3. Good. I'll admit it feels very odd for me to be picking a Russell Wilson quarterbacked team over an Aaron Rodgers quarterbacked team. Bruce Irvin undresses Bryan Bulaga again.
TakeYouToTasker Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Brian Bulaga cannot handle Bruce Irvin at all.
NoSaint Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 I wasn't an Irvin fan, but I wasnt a bulaga fan either.... One certainly looks better than the other here though.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 25, 2012 Author Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) Brian Bulaga cannot handle Bruce Irvin at all. And many people here wanted us to take Bulaga in the first round instead of CJ Spiller… and virtually no one here even believed that Bruce Irvin would be taken in the first round... That's what happens when you trust implicitly the opinions of the so-called "draft experts." And btw, Bulaga is a real good, solid, right tackle, but not the kind of player you take at #9.

RJ (not THAT RJ) Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 ESPN just went to commercial rather than explain a penalty flag. Commercials come first!

San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 25, 2012 Author Posted September 25, 2012 I wonder if Seattle will continue to try to pound Lynch… body punching. It seems like the Green Bay defense can play close to the line and dare Wilson to throw the ball… at once playing the run and being in a position to send pressure from everywhere. Both teams have done a real nice job defensively.
RJ (not THAT RJ) Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 That remains to be seen. So far, R. Wilson is not showing much when he does try to throw.
BringBackFergy Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Gruden is such a tool...if I have to hear how great Marshawn Lynch is again I'm gonna wake the neighbors.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 25, 2012 Author Posted September 25, 2012 And BTW, the NFC West suddenly doesn't look like such a walk in the park… and that unfortunately impacts the Bills. We're at SF and Arizona on consecutive October weekends and I think we "host' Seattle in Toronto. The Packers rushed five guys again. Seattle has to start throwing on first down. Their run, run, pass approach looks too predictable. Gruden is such a tool...if I have to hear how great Marshawn Lynch is again I'm gonna wake the neighbors. Can't stand Gruden.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 25, 2012 Author Posted September 25, 2012 Good grief, Seattle can play some D! Especially at home. And the Cardinals defense looks very formidable too. The Bills are gonna have to master the art of physical play to do well against this division.
TakeYouToTasker Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 I don't remember seeing a worse bust at the left tackle position than Okung. He's slow, plodding, off balance, reaching, and can't seem to keep his hands inside the play. He also takes a ton of bad penalties.
KD in CA Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Oh yeah....regular refs never miss the first act only to penalize the retaliation foul. First time I've ever seen that!
