I gotta give Colledge his due. I rag on him all the time, as I get tired of him playing too high and soft and getting shoved around. I really wish he'd get it together, because the guy is always stand up with the media, constantly giving interviews, is very articulate and seems really smart. And he's a big dude. Maybe he's like the nice guy in 'Dodgeball', and someone just has to punch him in the nuts to get him mean.

Underwood's oops resulted in 0 Philly points.
Jones's drop resulted in likely -6 Packers points, and yet he does not make the Bad.

Sorry Fitz. Jones is no "slouch". You can't say his drops are because he's lazy. According to records, he's a hard worker. He's a great guy, and he's the most upset with his drops.

But they are there. He's simply not reliable.

Could not care less about the guys feelings. If he catches the ball he will have nothing to be upset about.

I agree! Keep Underwood away from the ball! It still was a crappy call, but not as crappy as the refs allowing Philly to re-try the 2 point conversion. The play should have been over with the penalty on Celek.

Can't blame Underwood- if the NFL is going to let players drag and hold a guy on to the ball- so be it. Packers need to practice doing the same thing- that's all. It will certainly make punts more interesting.

While I didn't watch him the whole game, I will add in that on one particular run play, Colledge succeeding in doing something he is usually woefully poor at- he got into the second level and sustained a block 10 yards downfield.

That's only one play, but it spurred a comment from me at the time.

For those that are trying to critique Colledge on his not blocking anyone on Jackson's TD screen, I can only say that no one needed to be blocked. I can't fault the guy for keeping his position and not going after someone who's not going to make a play anyways. He played his part in that screen to a T.

As I've said in the past, if Brandon Jackson could only determine how to walk the fine line between patience and decisiveness, he could be very good in this scheme.

Unfortunately, he is far to indecisive much of the time.

Yep, Jarret is a liability in coverage. Who knew? Rodgers played within himself, I like to see that. If James "hands of shit" Jones catches that dimepiece A-rod softly dropped into his hands with pin-point accuracy #12 has 4 Td's in his first 2 playoff games and the game isn't in doubt with 45 seconds left. Bench the guy, give Swain his shot. Perhaps he isn't afraid of greatness.

he can't catch. not a good attribute for an NFL receiver.

Bush is more valuable than most dime backs, that's all that matters for his roster spot, you can't have unlimited shutdown corners. Do you see how many times CB's are schooled by our recievers? Bush contributes quite well in my opinion.

That said, to win when they play was really pretty ugly was awesome. Can't put the ball on the ground that many times and expect to win without another sterling effort from D. No stupid penalties...not a single PI call...when is the last time we saw that?
I like the discipline they are demonstrating.

Very happy to get the W, was getting a little nervous at the end thinking we may lose another heartbreaker. Tramon saved James jones today. I completely agree with those who say keep him off the field. Enough is enough, dropping sure td's repeatedly, taking plays off not fighting for the ball or finishing routes. Just can't have that happen anytime much less in the playoffs. swain and jordy are fully capable of producing. Jordy had a big catch at Atlanta last time let's see it again Saturday. GOPACKGO!!!!!!

I wasn't a big fan of McCarthys playcalling in the 4th quarter.Especially the third down play before the Eagles last possesion. It was third and 10(I think) MM should have known the Eagles were bringing the house and Rodgers wouldnt have much time to throw. And they didnt have one short crossing route that would probally have gotten a first down, it seamed that every rout was a long one. But we got luckey Tramon was able to pull off that int or the Eagle might have won.

I'm not saying MM deserves to be in the "bad" because besides his forth quarter play calling he had a solid game.

This is a fair point. Jennings had at least one drop that probably cost us points as well, as it was converting a 3rd down and pushing us into field goal range. Arguably, it was an easier catch too.

It is just hyperbole to say that you don't get an easier catch than Jones dropped today. He was sprinting downfield, with a man trailing closely, and it was a long throw. Not exactly a little floater wheel route to a wide open guy or something along those lines.

Jones HAS to make the catch as a professional WR. But so do Jennings on that out route. Jennings has had some of the worst drops on the whole team this year, but doesnt get scapegoated as bad as Jones.

They both caught one pass for about the same distance. Sure one was a td, but the Jennings catch was far more difficult to make. They both had drops, but JJ's was for a ball that was as perfect as you could expect on that route. Jennings draws more attention in general, and who's to say which one performed their other assignments the best? In my mind, it's not obvious that JJ had a better game simply b/c he caught a td that he should have. I believe JJ had an additional drop as well.

Sorry dude. When comparing the 2 I have to look at their respective bodies of work. It's not close. Make sure you spend plenty of time watching JJ the rest of the season because he has a good chance at not being back. Where as #85 will be around for a long, long time. Due to his superior body of work and dedication to improve.

James Jones gets replaced by Jermichael Finley in these 4 and 5 player sets normally and next year.

Nice guy who annoyingly refers to himself in the 3rd person way too much.

Jones is a head case, seems like he could play for the Cowboys.

We need to draft a WR for sure. Driver is on the way out

Swain is a #3 at best in any scheme.

I have an issue with MM's clock management at the end of the first half. First of all, call a timeout when it's obvious you're going to get the ball back with under two minutes left (after Philly failed to get a first down and it was clear they were going to settle for a field goal and the Pack would get the ball back). They could have had 30 extra seconds to work with, plenty of time to get into position for a possible FG attempt. Then, after the effing JJ TD drop, MM pretty much packs it in for the half. WTF? Try another deep pass, maybe they catch it, or get a PI, or worst case it's picked off an equivalent to a punt. There was still plenty of time left and I believe they still had two time outs.

i'm not saying put him in the bad, but come on, don't be afraid to be aggressive and try to score!

BucksLYs....how can you say JJ is a head case???? NO way, he is far to good of talent that doesn't know how to hang onto or catch the ball. The last time I checked he wasn't making noise like TO or OChocino or a cocky Joe Horn. The guy has talent, and is a class act off the field and on, but just sucks at holding onto the ball. His days are numbered in GB, it's his own fault, but I don't think he's a head case. Saying that...let's ride JJ and ARod and company into Atlanta!!!

Yes! This playoff experience is incredible for a young team. Even a little success, get them hungry for more. Our great team of the 90's struggled for a few years in the playoffs, then became dominant. And just think, next year we get Morgan Burnett, Ryan Grant, Mike Neal, Brad Jones, JERMICHAEL freaking Finley back, and... hopefully.... another solid draft. These are the good old days.

Yep, the amount of experience that our young guys are getting this year is invaluable and can only help in the coming years. The future is indeed bright.

If Jason Avant does not drop those two passes, do you add Sam Shields to the bad list?

#1: Everyone can just get use to JJones and JBush. They're not going anywhere. We at cheese head nation have all come to know one thing: TT loves "his" guys. It doesnt matter how bad they play or how often they cost us, theres bound to always be some excuse to keep them around.

#2: Someone said JBush is a viable dime CB who's a better #4 CB than what most other teams have. Interesting. It's also interesting to notice how every team we play targets him knowing that the chances of him making a play are slim to none. I don't care how good of a special teamer he is, if you were to make a list of all the pros/cons from his career, I guarantee you it'll come away one sided! Guarantee it. Moving on...

#3. Packers drafting Dez Bryant this year. Solves the problem of DDriver getting old and JJones not being reliable. I'm sorry, but I'm not sold on BBulaga, not from what I've seen thus far. We past on Randy Moss in 1998, a top overall talent in the draft and look how that ended (apparently we didnt learn our lesson bc once again we passed on a top 5 talent). DBryant would have also given us a kick/punt returner with lighting in the bottle capability (the name Desmond Howard ring a bell?).

In short: JJones and JBush should be gone after this year, no more excuses, there's plenty of talent elsewhere. Secondly, the draft isn't the only way to build a team. Would someone please tell TT that. Had we gone out and either traded for or picked up a OT in free agency, then we could have grabbed Dez Bryant at #23, a top 3 talent that dropped to us, in the which case would have solved the issues we are currently having at the wr position.

GO PACK GO

Advancing to the 2nd round of the playoffs despite 206 missed starts from critical players. The top 5 payrolls are out of the playoffs (you know, the active FA teams).

I'm leaning towards trusting TT.

Ill timed, pointless rant.

i don't agree with you on bulaga. he's a rookie and is playing out of position. he's doing a good job this year. yeah, he's had his share of bad plays (especially last week against the bares) but the dude is gonna be a solid player for this team for many years. and randy moss??? the guy is a very good player but is a cancer in the locker room. i'm glad we passed on him.

Brett Favre, Reggie White, Santana Dotson, Sean Jones, Eugene Robinson, Andre Rison, Don Beebe, Keith Jackson, Frank Winters, Desmond Howard.

= List of players either traded for or picked up in free agency that helped contribute to the last time the Green Bay Packers were Super Bowl Champions. (Proof to TT that building thru the draft isn't the only route).

Woodson, Picket, Williams, Peprah, traded draft picks to get Matthews.

I'm leaving out several...

Not saying I dont trust TT...Just going with what history shows. Don't quite see how it was "ill timed or pointless rant" to go into further depth on what EVERYONE else in this convo has been briefly talking about.

Is it preseason? Did I miss something...

Bulaga is solid, receiver core is fine, team advanced. Do I trust Jones, no. He is what he is, hot and cold.

P.S. Totally agree with Nagler that JJones should be automatically assumed to be in either the bad/ugly week in and week out, hence no reason to take the time to put his name in there. Classic A.N.

Mark me down as wanting Jones to be permanently on the Ugly list. Hope they let him walk at the end of the season. Talent does not outweigh his pea brain.

That said, I heart Tramon Williams!

If the Vikings can teach Peterson to not fumble the ball, then the Packers can teach JJ how to catch. The guy can get open and he has the potential to be really really good. Just needs to hold on to the ball. I personally would like to see him next year - but catching the ball instead of dropping it.

I would like to nominate Giants fans. Feeling pretty happy about the win last night I figured I would throw on the Packer sweatshirt and hit the town and gauge the feel of the day seeing the town I live in is a mixed batch of Giants, Eagles and Jets fans.
As I expected, I got some dirty looks from a few Eagles fans(screw em) but what I did not expect was having Giants fans come up and congratulate me on the Packers beating the Eagles.
So while I was driving home, I was thinking even when the Packers beat the Giants and basically helped ruin their entire season. They still are happy as heck we beat the Eagles.
You know sometimes living in New Jersey ain't half bad.

Just when you thought JJ was going to have a good game.

Is it me or is Hawk frustrating? Yes he got the late sack but he blew a few coverages early and seemed to be playing a little flat.

Can't compare him to Matthews either cause that boys just a beast. 110% and the motor goes all game.

All I’m gonna say is…that the Pack was LUCKY…

The Eagles should have won that game…

Two missed FG’s by Lowry..c’mon, wtf is up with that? A cheap shot by Hawk that rolled Vick’s ankle. Rodgers really didn’t do sh*t in the 2nd half. The eagles kept shooting themselves in the foot, and Andy Reid coached a terrible game.

No way does the Pack get past Atlanta next week!

What does that give us?

1 playoff win without Favre for Thompson with Favre in 6 years? Big deal…

http://www.firetedthompsonnow.com

This just in, Green BAy has a running game...????

Big deal.

What, was this the first over 100 yard game for a GB runner all year…???

hahaha…way to go TT…(It won't happen in Atlanta).

1 playoff win in 6 years? hahahaha…you’re never getting out of Atlanta…stop deluding yourselves..

Who is this Lowry that missed two FG's? Is that in addition to the two that Akers missed?

The statistic that made the difference in this game is red zone efficiency; The Packers were perfect and the Eagles not so much. Normally losing the turnover battle 2 to 1 on the road when total yards and TOP are pretty equal spells defeat. But in this case the Packers converted red zone trips to touchdowns, and the Eagles didn't. Simple as that. Comes down to play calling and execution, and the Eagles have been terrible most of the year in red zone efficiency.

And a playoff win short, he's forgetting the team TT built in 07 only to have another Favre pick end the season. That's two playoff wins under TT and still playing...that's twice as many playoff wins as the Vikings in the last 6 years

It is worth watching that Maclin cross that he caught while Tramon was covering him. Tramon gets beat, which is rare, but his catchup speed and angle are a thing of beauty. Hard to credit him on such a big gain, but his tackle saved a touchdown and is testament to what a great corner he is.

Yeah, James Jones please catch the ball when it hits your hands. BUT.......He does get open, and catch about every other ball, you can't tell me Brett Swain OR Jordy has better ability at getting open. Jump on the JJ bandwagon for the rest of this year, don't look for reasons to hate him... Come on!
