Tisker A Tasker Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 It looks like Scott Berchtold is giving Vince Lombardi's desk to the Hall of Fame. Does this somehow lift the curse and allow the Packers to win a game in Buffalo? https://www.facebook.com/groups/189544431377774/permalink/677157309283148/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last game here our D dominated and Rodgers had one of the worst games of his career which ended in a Mario Williams sack/fumble/safety inside the last 2 minutes of the game. It was the play where as soon as another Packer player picked up the ball in the endzone the play was blown dead and it was a safety and everyone was confused as to what happened because he had not been tackled. Then the next week the Bills went on the road to Oakland against a 2-12 Raider team and lost to get knocked out of the playoffs again...

That loss alone, at that stage of the season, kept the Pack from getting home field advantage all the way through the NFC playoffs, and maybe cost them a Super Bowl appearance. I would have loved to have seen that Packers team take on the Pats in the SB...and possible erase from history the interception at the goal line. 1 hour ago, ChasBB said: 11/18/1979 - Rich Stadium - Bills 19, Packers 12 10/30/1988 - Rich Stadium - Bills 28, Packers 0 11/20/1994 - Rich Stadium - Bills 29, Packers 20 9/10/2000 - Ralph Wilson Stadium - Bills 27, Packers 18 11/5/2006 - Ralph Wilson Stadium - Bills 24, Packers 10 12/14/2014 - Ralph Wilson Stadium - Bills 21, Packers 13 On top of that the Pack has also never won a game at Rich Stadium, The Ralph or New ERA Field.

Berchtold took the desk with him to Buffalo when he switched from working for Green Bay to his new job with the Bills. This would have angered the Football God known as Vince Lombardi that he would curse the Buffalo Bills for holding this desk. IE: Bills should lose to Packers every time they play in Buffalo where the desk is. This did not happen for reasons unknown as Bills beat Packers all the time in Buffalo. I can only surmise this desk is a fake and Vince never used it, or, alternately, Vince has no power from the grave/afterlife. If desk is authentic, why would Vince put a curse on Packers for a former employee taking his desk? Curse should be brought upon the team the employee brought it to.

FluffHead Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Doug Marrone has been trying to get Berchtold down to Jacksonville so he can read the injury report to the media at every press conference like old times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
