Happy Thanksgiving RP but I want to know how he is classified a great talent evaluator when you look at this team. How many draft picks has he wasted on the offensive line? How many defensive players has not worked out that he has drafted. He gets lucky with the WRs and thats about it. He had Rodgers fall to him and besides that how many qbs has he drafted that flopped?

I am not about assigning blame because it is non productive. With that said, I am all about moving forward. Next year there are several players that need replacing on our current team, because there is a lot of heartless suckage out there combined with mediocrity making way too much money. First of all, Raji and Pickett have got to go. If we want to continue a 3-4, you have to have an anchor nose tackle. Pickett is too old for that now, and Raji is just plain and simple too fucking lazy to get it done. Next up is AJ Hawk, who can't cover so he lost weight to be faster, and now he can't tackle a fullback without getting pancaked. Those three guys make way too much money to play like ass week in and week out.

On offense we need an infusion of talent on the line. Not one of those guys is even close to being an All Pro, and I don't know if you want to blame the coaching or talent evaluator. We are going to need a tight end, and a competent fullback.

Oh if the world was truly as simple and narrow-minded as it is through Texas' eyes. I'm certainly thankful it's not, though.

See Texas, I'm not the only one that thinks you're a Dumbass! But you keep up your opinions. Boomers know everything after all.

How many losing seasons has Ted had in the last 7-8 years? 2? Stop this nonsense. If I had to put anything on Teds head this year it has to be not sticking with one backup Quarterback. Unacceptable playing with 3 Quarterbacks since losing Arod to injury. Albeit Wallace was injured but still, even before the season we couldn't find one.

and thanks to a Jackson punt return we got into the dance.

In week 1, if Calvin Johnson isn't robbed out of a touchdown against the Bears by incompetent officiating the Packers win the North and and get the 2nd seed in the NFC.

But hey, we weren't a good team that year, despite never trailing by more than a touchdown and, you know, winning the Super Bowl. As the most injured team that season.

Spastics.

As for QB, that is at least partly on Mike for not developing either of the two guys we had. I do think, especially in hindsight, that they should have picked Flynn up when he first became available. But he didn't do much today anyway.

As for S, well McMillian never became a player. Neither did Jennings. Banjo looks like he might be competent. Now we've also got Richardson and Hyde. Be nice to see what they've got.

The problem on D is that guys continue to not know who to cover and continue to not maintain their gaps in the trenches.

Also, there are some right spoiled, insufferable twats in Packer land. Today sucked. Move on. The constant bitching and moaning about everyone and everything sucking from some of you is nauseating. There are some serious things this team needs to fix. Some have called out those weaknesses in level-headed, reasonable ways. There's a ton more (both on this site and otherwise) who have pissed and moaned like a spoiled brat with a skinned knee. Revisionist history and excessive hyperbole. Fucking gag me.

So he got fired after 1 losing season and this will be MM's 2nd so why is he still here?

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

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

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Zero- Did you see what I posted about Voice of Reason and his wife? She posted over at fleaflicker that they are both "In"

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Well, not crazy, it makes sense. Crazy I didn't notice/find it earlier

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?
