I understood WHY we made the change because of Jon Ryan's inconsistency, but this is bull.

I was in Frost's court and supported the decision at the time. It's run its course with me.

I think I have been on record to say I wouldn't say this, but I'd rather Jon than Frost. Frost is not living up to his past. He was a consistently good hang time punter who suddenly is only consistently sucking.

That's right, I'd rather Jon back. At least you could get a helluva boom out of him now and then, albeit it'd get ran back 30 yards, but still at least it was fun to watch and I didn't have to close my eyes when our punter came on the field.

Cut Frost, bring in anyone. Even if its Paul McJulien and his large ass.

I'm stuck out in Redskin territory, and some of their fans I work with were chuckling after we picked up Frost, predicting that we'd soon be regreting the move--especially after the weather turned cold. They laughed about his 'consistency', saying that if he'd been consistent, the Redskins would never have drafted a punter to replace him. Keep in mind, he's been punting like this in good weather/indoor stadiums. Wait until he gets put into a situation like Jon was in the playoffs, and his leg isn't as strong as Jon's.

I'm down south in Hampton Roads, about 3 hours away. I grew up here and moved back here after retiring from the military. The Redskins are the reason I'm a Packers fan. :icon_smile: When I was growing up, the regional team was the Redskins and they SUCKED. Every week, I'd get to see them play either a good team, and get slaughtered, or a bad team, and then I was watching two bad teams play. brrrr--I still shudder to think of it--the Redskins scarred me for life. And it wasn't like they were a local team, close by or anything--they were 3 1/2 hours away. Anyway, this was back in the 60s, and the only other team I got to watch consistently on the national game was the Packers, so I grew up a Packers fan (and then suffered through the 70s and 80s...sigh).

I watched the Mike McCarthy Show tonight and he was asked if he was disappointed in Frosts performance.
He replied that Frost had a great week of preparation and a great pre-game, now all we have to do is get that to translate to game time.
My question is how many games do we have to wait for the translation?

Kind of reminds me of how they were bragging that Crosby was hitting FG's from 60 yards before the game.
Yeah.......that helped alot when the game was on the line, hey???

Zero2Cool (6h) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Thanks Mucky and whomever created topcos for each pick!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Putring it here so Mucky sees it. He was our guy!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

Mucky Tundra (28-Apr) : damn those vikings

beast (27-Apr) : OL – Donovan Jennings, USF OT – Trente Jones, Michigan

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score

dhazer (27-Apr) : Anyone know what went on with Kitchens from Florida? At 1 point he was to be the Packers 1st round and he is way down the board now

Martha Careful (27-Apr) : Z, could you please combine my thread with yours please. I obviously did not see it when I Created it
