Hate to say it, but Rouse is playing better than Collins ever has. Rouse still goes for the big hit all the time, but he has been solid so far.

Defense has gone to sleep.

Nice play by Harris though.

This game is far from over. The Packers are dicking around, and not putting a far inferior team away.

i don't get the bench favre so early stuff. look now they are only up 2 scores and there are still nearly 5 minutes left. it would take a miracle for carolina to win but stranger things have happened.

Yeah, sure looks like we aren't closing the deal. Giants gave up a TD to Detroit, too...

I don't know...maybe at his age, the longer he has to rest will just make him stiffen up more! Keep him loose!

Dammit!!!
Hope Grant is okay.

MM is ticking me off. Four minutes to go and he RUNS the ball - like he thinks nobody would expect that. Go for it!

Unbelievable. McCarthy should have his nuts cut off. Grant is down and no way should he have been playing. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

What happened to Grant?

Good to see Grant walk off easily.
Bout time Crosby.

And that logic just got Grant hurt.

No, Grant absolutely should be playing. 11 points with 5 min to go is not a sure thing. You keep your best players out there until the game is in hand.

Not sure. He walked off looking good, but went down hard. Looks like they are checking out his right leg. Can't tell if they're looking at the knee, or ankle or what.

Logic? What's his number?

Perhaps you would rather we take our starters out, go 4 and out a few times, and let Carolina take the lead??

it is a 2 score game. no way should they be benching players with 5 minutes left in a 2 score game. guys get hurt, it happens. if they put a sub in there and he fumbles for a return td then people would blame mccarthy for that.

Dick Stockwell needs to expire.

Good thing we aren't over-reacting here....

Wonderful (that's sarcasm)! With only a super-short week before hitting the Lions on their favorite day to upset somebody and then Dallas to follow. If Grant's got anything more than a very, very minor injury, we're going to have to go back to the short passing game again like we opened the season. At this point in the year, nobody's going to be fooled by that at all. We've got no running game without Grant.

Absolutely, you have to have your starters out there now. However, I did think that it was a little questionable with 9 minutes to go, and a first and ten at midfield to attempt three straight passes. That said, if that's the only thing I'm complaining about, MM is doing a damn good job.

OMG, Grant might be hurt, season's over.
