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???

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress
