If we're going to fault Ted Thompson for filling the roster with "just another guy" after "just another guy", how can we say the team is underachieving? Know what I mean?

The only fault I saw with Aaron was on the last throw, he should have thrown it low instead of high.
Much better chance at a completion or a PI call.
But any way you look at it, our WRs run their routes, then when they arnt open they just stand around. They don't try to get open. So Rodgers just runs around like a chicken with his head cut off.
NOT Rodgers fault.
And lol at the win over the Vikings. Even that win...our offense sucked. Without Mason Crosby's 5 FGs over 40 yards each, we could have lost that game too.
Our defense has done enough to win, but our O is letting us down.
I don't see us beating the Lions next week.
Or any other game with the way our offense is playing.

Martha Careful (2h) : *game plan

Martha Careful (3h) : IMHO, not even close. He is not a guy you game play around.

Mucky Tundra (6h) : is Aiyuk worth a 1st rounder?

Zero2Cool (6h) : 49ers are seeking a 1st round pick in exchange for WR Brandon Aiyuk

Mucky Tundra (22-Apr) : Based on Gutes comments, now I don't feel as silly having 13 picks in my mock the other day

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Zach Wilson to Broncos.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Gutekunst says he'd love to have 13 or 14 picks. He's trading back huh lol

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.

Zero2Cool (18-Apr) : Packers sign T Andre Dillard.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : Adds most of the information this time of year comes from agents.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : @RealAlexBarth Bill Belichick says accurate draft information doesn't leak from teams until about 12 hours before the draft. Adds most of th

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : I am very happy that for moment, Jordan Love seems like a normal human being

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : Saints have agreed to terms on a contract with former Packers wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown.

beast (12-Apr) : No, but of it's for legislation, then half of the country will find it evil, not good, whatever it says....

dfosterf (8-Apr) : Question of the week for me: Has anyone besides me done any deep dive into the potential of Alex McGough, our 3rd string qb?
