For Us, Every Packer’s Game is America’s Game of the Week
The Green Bay Packers are playing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and FOX is calling it America’s Game of the Week. You know, normally I don’t trust anything FOX has to say, but I do think they got this one right. The reason the rest of America cares about Wisconsin, besides being concerned about our health and safety when it comes to COVID-19? Because this match-up will give fans an insight into which team might make it to the NFC playoffs. *cough cough it’ll be the Packers*
This will be the third, and possibly last, time that the NFL’s hottest quarterbacks, both on and off the field, will face off. Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady, two future Hall of Famers, will be leading their teams into the 6th week of games, and Packers’ running back Jamaal Williams summed the match-up perfectly…
After the Buccaneers lost to the Chicago Bears last week because of a brain-fart made by Brady, Williams said, “Come on, man. I’m pretty sure my quarterback knows what fourth down is. Aaron Rodgers would never do that. Never. He’s too smart for that… we’d never be in that type of situation because A-Rod is always prepared… always looking at the clock… we’ve got too many people that are just too ready to go. We’ve been in those types of pressure situations before, and I feel like it’s just natural for us to be on top of everything and go ball. I would never expect that from my boy 12, ever.” And obviously, Brady isn’t as sharp as he once was, which is probably why he’s buying a retirement home in Florida as we speak. At least there he might have a chance to beat Rodgers on the golf course.
We’re not idiots; we wear a mask and know when it’s appropriate to talk trash. Like in this instance when the Packers are 4-0-0, ranked second by The Athletic’s Expected Power Rating, ranks first in the NFL in yards per play, ranks first in the NFL in DVOA, has the best Pass Block Win Rate in the NFL, is first in the NFL in giveaways with zero, and the list could go on and on. Even Brady will admit that Rodgers is one of the greatest players to ever play the game.
Watch the game on Sunday, October 18th, at 3:25 pm CT. And if we happen to lose, this article will be deleted and erased from your memory.
