From the article:

"The Lions linebacker seems to disappear into Johnson like a scene from Alien played backwards."

Wow what a awesome article on quinn's debut ... Here we have been talking about our crap Oline and green signing ... we forgot we had a rookie debut this past sunday.

Great picks and decriptions there ... Didnt even notice we ran a 2 fullback set and gave kuhn the ball.

Thanks for posting that, Trippster. Good stuff. Too bad the MJS and GBPG don't write positive stories about the Packers anymore, or that might not be the only one about Quinn's debut. Unfortunately, it's all the rage to just bitch about the Packers constantly these days.

Quinn is nasty. He turns into a freakish beast on Madden after a couple years.

Given Johnson's ability to block in the running game, I don't see it being a particularly hard translation into pass block.

He's got the strength to hold his ground, and he's improving with his hand placement. As a full back you can still move up to engage a defensive player in a block, unlike the constant backpeddling of an OL.

No, I don't think it will be particularly hard for him. I hope to see good things with Johnson as our FB into the future.

The challenge for a back to transition to pass blocking is to be alert and smart enough to pick up the blitzes. This is one area that the coaches have said they will miss dearly by not having Wynn. Apparently he was the best we had for that. Hopefully, Wuinn can make us forget about Wynn.

dfosterf (6h) : Just gotta figure out how.

dfosterf (6h) : Could have been a worse start, so there is that.

beast (6h) : Yeah, someone tell the Packers football season has started, seems like they weren't ready for it

Mucky Tundra (7h) : Sooooooo many penalties

Mucky Tundra (7h) : It may only be preseason, but this game is a trip to the dentist

Zero2Cool (14h) : Woo-hoo

TheKanataThrilla (15h) : NFL Network is broadcasting the game tonight, but not in Canada. Not sure why as no local television is showing the game.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

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

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 (7-Aug) : it's crazy how one stored procedure to get data bogged everything down for speed here

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Yesterday my wife and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront here in Alexandria, Va. A daycare company took about 15 three/four year olds

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Sure does feel like site is more snappy

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : I thought that was the Lions OL

Mucky Tundra (6-Aug) : Travis Glover placed on IR; seasons over for him

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

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 (4-Aug) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy
