LATEST STORIES FROM TRIGGPACK
It Just Doesn’t Matter
That’s what I keep telling myself. I’ve been in an absolute funk since Sunday. Terse, short-fused, monotone, punching couch cushions and kicking misplaced stuffed animals as if they were somehow responsible for the Packers’ uninspired 37-20 loss to the Giants. In the context of the Philbin family’s tragedy last week, it should be easy to put this loss into perspective...

Hola, Los Gigantes. We meet again.
January 20, 2008: a play that will live in infamy.
Those of you who are long-time TriggPack fans may recall my past posts about Los Gigantes. But the rivalry goes back much further than the '07 Jersey Pipefitters convention I witnessed in Cancun during which Corey Webster stuck a dagger in the heart of every Packer fan, and stuck a fork in Brett Favre's career as a...

Flynn Is In
Matt Flynn's record-setting performance Sunday was a perfect showcase for the soon-to-be unrestricted free agent. Perfect for him at least. I was kind of holding out hope that he might slide under the radar of other NFL teams and stay on our roster next year in case Rodgers got hurt. But a 480-yard, 6 touchdown performance against an ostensibly playoff-caliber defense is hard...

The Part of the Season We've All Been Waiting For
The Christmas day victory over the Bears secured the third of McCarthy's big four goals for the season, which were (repeated multiple times and typically in this order): 1) win the division, 2) get a first-round bye, 3) secure home field advantage throughout the playoffs, and 4) win the Super Bowl. An unstated "nice-to-have" 5th goal may have been to go undefeated...

Packers + All Cylinders = Wood Chipper
The Raiders Team Bus
The Packers demonstrated just how dangerous they can be when all three phases are firing on all cylinders at the same time. The Raiders didn't stand a chance Sunday. The 46-16 drubbing could have been much worse. But for a rare Rodgers end zone interception and a few drives that ended in field goals instead of touch downs, the Pack easily could have...

Suh-icide
Our turkey doing a Lambeau Leap onto the bar.
It was a pretty typical Thanksgiving at the Trigg household -- a twenty-pound turkey, dinner for 14, and a Packer victory over the Lions. Like in past Thanksgivings, cooking such an ambitious meal while simultaneously watching the Packer game posed an added degree of difficulty. In fact, when Rodgers hit James Jones for a 65-yard...

Just How Hard Is a Perfect Season?
Another week, another win. Even though they kept it competitive, the Bucs never really felt that threatening today at Lambeau. Nobody picked them to win, and, in the end, you could sense they didn't expect to themselves. But underdogs do win sometimes. In the Packers perfect season, it's easy to lose sight of that fact.
Today marked an interesting milestone: the 16th...

Defense Finally Delivers in Viking Drubbing
That was the performance we've all been waiting for from the Packers' defense this year -- constant pressure, creative blitzes, three sacks (two by Matthews), an interception, forced fumble and multiple 3-and-outs. Woodson was a beast with 8 tackles, two blocked passes, and two near interceptions -- one of which he would have taken to the house. If not for Randall Cobb...

Packers’ Peprah Picks a Pack of Philip’s Passes
Unfortunately, he also got burned numerous times for touchdowns. While his prolific picks may have been prophesized by some, I doubt his poor pass protection was also part of that premonition. Midway through a still undefeated season, the Packers enigmatic defense continues to be… an enigma.
On the one hand, they’re really good. They are tough in the red zone. They lead...
