Thanks for setting this up, Brian. Any chance we might see a live blog or chat in the future? I love this site!

I think it comes down to them not wanting to commit the time and resources to a preseason game. They've had live blogs all training camp. They'll be back next week.
August 29, 2013 at 08:16 pm
Very cool! I've enjoyed the live blogs during training camp.

Crosby splits the uprights! Give that man $10.
August 29, 2013 at 07:20 pm
Ha, he's got too much money already.
August 29, 2013 at 07:24 pm
Micah Hyde is a football player. Love that guy. Looked comfortable with that punt.
August 29, 2013 at 07:28 pm
Yeah, he looks legit.
August 29, 2013 at 07:28 pm
What happened to bahktiari?
August 29, 2013 at 07:29 pm
According to twitter, he was just taken out. Trainers weren't looking at him or anything. Odd.
August 29, 2013 at 07:33 pm
Tom silverstein said he might have got a cut.
August 29, 2013 at 07:34 pm
Ah...okay.
August 29, 2013 at 07:33 pm
Tom Crab tree carted off with leg injury. Sucks. Wish him the best great guy
August 29, 2013 at 07:34 pm
ZOMBO!!!!! YOU SON OF A!
And, wow, Coleman...wow

And these are our two backups, Rodgers throw it fast please do not get hurt.
August 29, 2013 at 07:42 pm
Jolly makes this team. He has shown what he has left and would be a welcomed addition to the defense
August 29, 2013 at 07:46 pm
No doubt. He's a lock. What a great job by him.
August 29, 2013 at 07:48 pm
Lattimore has been all over the field so far.
August 29, 2013 at 07:52 pm
Way too many blown coverages by our secondary. I realize that they aren't starters but they easily could be.

As of this moment, the Packers have given up 27 yards passing. Rather harsh.
August 29, 2013 at 08:06 pm
I think that number has more to do with the pass pressure than the coverage. Of course, as I say that we get a nice coverage sack.
August 29, 2013 at 08:31 pm
So on this 2 minute drill we are seeing the coverage break down.
August 29, 2013 at 08:33 pm
Keep in mind: literally not a single one of these DBs playing right now will be on the roster in a couple days.
August 29, 2013 at 08:40 pm
Evan, I do get that but I have been seeing this sort of thing all preseason, and not just from the 'cut list' guys.
August 29, 2013 at 08:05 pm
Get up Banjo!
August 29, 2013 at 08:10 pm
any word yet?
August 29, 2013 at 08:14 pm
His knee went Kazooie?
August 29, 2013 at 08:10 pm
There ya go, Ross!
August 29, 2013 at 08:14 pm
Well, if the kicker competition and contract restructuring was meant to motivate Crosby it looks like it worked.
August 29, 2013 at 08:26 pm
Man, these QBs aren't making it easy for these bubble receivers to make plays.
August 29, 2013 at 08:28 pm
Jolly just got flagged for what every Seattle and San Fran DB does all the time.
August 29, 2013 at 08:32 pm
Also, someone switched Jolly's jersey with a medium.
August 29, 2013 at 08:45 pm
That's exactly what I was thinking...though would actually give Jolly a little more credit. It was a bang bang play, and he actually let up a bit as soon as he hit the guy.
SEA and SF are intentionally looking to hurt somebody.
August 29, 2013 at 08:46 pm
True, true...
August 29, 2013 at 08:46 pm
I think the jersey restricted his movement; he went to just touch the guy down and fell over doing so.
August 29, 2013 at 08:59 pm
I'll tell ya...this game sucks and is boring as hell. But I love seeing the vets cheering for the young guys when they make a play.
August 29, 2013 at 09:09 pm
When I played in high school I speared on 90% of the tackles I made. And I made a lot of them. Got warned a few times, never penalized.
August 29, 2013 at 09:12 pm
59 yard punt.
How much can a punter at the top of his game earn?
August 30, 2013 at 06:19 pm
I think both of the Colquitts are making almost $4 mil. Per year on average. Not too bad for kicking the ball as hard as you can 90 times a year. I picked the wrong profession.
August 29, 2013 at 09:26 pm
Young is terrible btw, forget whether he "knows the playbook" or not.
Maybe we can trade a TE for Matt Flynn.
August 29, 2013 at 09:44 pm
Miss harrell yet?
August 29, 2013 at 09:44 pm
Maybe Randall Cobb can be the backup qb?
August 29, 2013 at 09:52 pm
I have to admit, I was really expecting VY to toss a few int's- guess it was a success all things considered.
August 29, 2013 at 09:53 pm
Hard to throw picks when you're throwing the ball into the dirt.
August 29, 2013 at 10:06 pm
He's just a little rusty! I'm sure he could step in and do what it takes in a real game. BJ seems to really have taken that step as well - just in the wrong direction. At this point I don't know that anyone could honestly argue that neither of these guys should be on the field. More worries here than with harrell.
August 29, 2013 at 10:13 pm
9 of 23 - seems like a great step in the right direction. Must be due to that winning history and extreme athleticism mm and tt keep talking about.
August 29, 2013 at 10:48 pm
Looks like Vince Young has been given strict instructions to not throw any risky throws due to the risk of an interception. This seems to be MM's approach with all his new QBs - including Rodgers when he was a rookie. I suppose VY has to wait for the time when they give him more freedom to sling those instinct throws.
August 29, 2013 at 09:55 pm
Dear Ted,
Ted you have one of coolest jobs. Fire all those bums. Can you make a trade for a gem? Running backs, Starks and Green showed me nothing. They need a change of pace too!
Back ups should be better than that. If any starter gets hurt this season it will get very interesting.
thanks
August 29, 2013 at 10:08 pm
I know we say pre season doesnt count but this may mean something - our backups are terrible - especially on offense WOW!!
I am officially a little worried about the quality of our 53 man roster
August 29, 2013 at 10:20 pm
Banjo? Update?
August 29, 2013 at 11:24 pm
He went back in, so it appears he's OK.
August 30, 2013 at 12:18 am
Thanks!
