yooperfan;385821Hundley was 12 of 25 for 87 yards and a 39.9 want.
Not exactly awe inspiring.
I actually was not expecting anything substantial out of Hundley today. Nevertheless he failed to meet even my low expectations of completing 50% of his passes, getting a meager 125 yards and a rating of 50. There are 43 QBs with a rating higher than 50. It is a bar so low it is actually laying on the ground. All he had to do is step over it.
In the modern NFL with the rules so skewed towards the offense and passing game, how is it possible not to have 150 yards in a game? Hundley didn't even get 100 yards and with the prevent defense in the 4th quarter he should have had 80 yards on the last drive alone.
As far as the coaching staff and play calling letting him down. Nonsense. They started him off with kindergarten level plays. If he would have succeeded they would have moved on to better, more complex plays. He couldn't do it so they dropped down the preschool level plays and he still struggled.
I can not see why any fan ever thought GB could get a top draft pick from him. When his contract is over he will probably be released.

How many games before we flip flop Hundley and Callahan? MM play calling was pathetic...let the kid play football. The plan we had today made me scratch my head more than once. Also make Aaron Jones the featured back and leave Montgomery sit the pine.

They won't go to Callahan until they are mathematically eliminated. Hundley is their draft choice. Callahan is the lowly UDFA.

Hundley has a ceiling. Whether he will ever reach that remains to be seen. But he's gonna get his shot right now.

wpr;385827What do you expect the HC to say? That we are screwed now that Aaron is out of the game? It is mandatory that he say all these wonderful things about his backup QB. Mainly because he has no other choice. Excuse me for saying so but anyone other than a 10 yo should have realized what Mike said this past week was all talk.
I get having to “say all the right things” in the media. But either...
1. They think Huntley can throw the football and be effective-ish
2. They think Huntley can’t be effective-ish throwing the football
If 1, then let ‘er rip. Let him run the offense. If 2, start someone else. Because at the end of the day, you’re NOT going to win games if you don’t throw the football. So no matter who you start, you can’t just have kid gloves on.
Packers have shown they don’t trust Huntley and teams are going to sell out vs the run. Which is only going to make things worse.

Not sure how much I believe it myself but part of me thinks the Packers know Huntley won’t succeed in the NFL but are trying to avoid drama by giving him a couple starts. Then when he fails, they throw in Callahan, a more traditional passer. Who probably will also struggle but might have a better shot moving the ball through the air - and the coaches know it.

I'll continue to say it: Hundley sucks. He MAY get better, and he's capable of doing so, but I don't expect it to happen to any large degree.
As 95% of NFL already knew, the Green Bay Packers are Aaron Rodgers. Without him, they are a bottom quarter team. The definition of average, at best.

Callahan is a career scrub.

The Saints had their HOF QB on the field yesterday , The Packers did not
The Saints defense was intact,
The Packers were missing their most important cog in Morgan Burnett.
The Packers went toe to toe with The Saints for 3-1/2 quarters.
This game turned on ONE play.
Trevor Davis decides to return the kickoff, flag on the play.
Instead of 1st and 10 on the 25 it was 1sr and 10 at the nine.
Packers go 3 and out.
All the momentum swings to The Saints,
Breese knows how to put the nail in the coffin!
Game over!
Eagles are 5-1, every other NFC team has 2 or more losses and most of you are calling the season over!
The more things change the more they stay the same!
Basically it now comes down to a 9 game season.
I think I will wait till I see The Packers name on that list that scroles at the bottom of the tv screen announcing what teams have been Eliminated from the playoffs until I give up on the season.
