Presumptive starter Sam Barrington has been ordinary, Nate Palmer has a club on his left hand and Carl Bradford is...

There will be alot to look for as the 2015 version of the Green Bay Packers takes shape.
I'll be paying special attention to Jake Ryan.
I hope he gets the chance to play against the Steeler's ones and does well.

Others I'll be paying special attention to will be Barclay and Pennell.
Hopefully Barclay doesn't get Aaron Rodgers killed.

Only 6.5 hours to kick off. It seems like it's been an eternity since the Hew England game.
GO PACK GO!!!!!!!

Hoping the young Db's also get to go against the Steelers first team.

Will be interesting to see how long each team plays it's ones.

Pittsburgh has the advantage of one more game.

Will be a good game to evaluate players .

Barclay damn well better play good ..... or hold or something to keep pass rushers off you-know-who.

I would LOVE for Pennell to make Raji expendable when Guion comes back.

I'll be watching those ILBs too but more so the OLBs - my new favorite Packer on D - Jayrone Elliot, along with Mulumba, Hubbard, and Vaughters. Getting to Roethlisberger usually ain't too tough, but putting him on the ground is.

Also, I want to see Damarious Randall who I expect to beat out Hayward and start at Corner - today is a good day to take a step toward earning that job against those hotshot Steeler WRs. Rollins too and Gunter and I'd like to see some quality play from Goodson.

Starks made a believer outta me last week; I hope to see at least one of the three young RBs really step up and stand out this week.

edit: I just now read the article - after I wrote the post. Pennell at 3-4 DE huh? THAT ought to be interesting. I have kinda a positive feeling about the move.

That first team D vs. 1st team Pitts O is what I want to see.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

I am truly excited about watching all position groups so it will be hard to pick one when a play is going down. I'll probably end up watching the ball as usual haha. But I am interested to see Gaston, Ringo, all DBs, and Ryan on Defense and looking for someone to step up as a red zone threat on offense.

Janis v Pinkard for that last WR spot, with White on the outside looking in.

Zero2Cool (26m) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (26m) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.

Zero2Cool (26m) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

Mucky Tundra (42m) : 4th

Zero2Cool (56m) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (2h) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (3h) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (7h) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (7h) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (23h) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : 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 (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

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!
