They’re Here To Stay

From beginning to end this wasn’t the greatest game of the week. If you watched it you would know that. The referees had no control. It wasn’t that the players were fighting constantly. The refs just couldn’t get a grip on the calls they were making. Too many times they went under the hood to review plays that seemed to take forever. They made football boring.

No Longer Perfect

This stat line for Packers QB Aaron Rodgers is telling; 14-22, 77 yards, 0 TD, sacked 3 times. It pretty much tells me that the Denver Broncos have a legitimate defense. Continue reading
