James had a great day! He also had a lot of bodies blocking for him, and rightfully acknowledged his success was do in part to ALL his teammates blocking for him.

Including two FB (Johnson and Kuhn).

I used to be a bjack lover - well this was when grant was taking 90% of the runs ... but after seeing bjack this year and now seeing starks in 2 solid games; I like what I see in starks - and like you guys said the whole falling forward thing.
Seems like even if he only gets 3 yards running he gets another yard or 2 just because he drives so much forward that he falls in that general direction

And like Rourke said, James Starks is pretty fresh for an NFL player health-wise. I hope that helps the Packers.

Jackson gets the same holes he just goes for the sideline to sideline juke way to much. Starks hits the holes and falls forward, i've had enough of Jackson's 1st and 10 one yard runs. He's built to be a blitz pickup/short pass 3rd down RB.
This will definitely put some more spark into an already good play action pass game Rodgers has.
A full healthy NFL offseason and TC could work wonders for this kid. That gives us 3 NFL proven RB's and maybe most of all, moves our best FB back to his natural position with a new FB run threat.
We are born naked, wet and hungry. Then things get worse.

And how does this belabor the point that it wasn't the first time the wishbone was used by us this season? I believe I heard we used it 6-8 times so 12 or some times during the regular season.

I like this comment. First time used, first time useful. I was hoping it was successful before being used. ;)



Possible, but I think it was used against the 49ers too. I'm not sure on that. Starks had something like 83 yards in that game. Doesn't mean he got those yards from the wishbone though.

Martha Careful (31-May) : I have never seen an OTA, but who is lining up at LT and RG with starters? or is it all individual drills?
Zero2Cool (30-May) : Bears are the first team to be selected for Hard Knocks
dfosterf (29-May) : Andy Herman and his Pack a day podcast put up GB strengths yesterday. This morning he did weaknesses. They are both very good.

Zero2Cool (22-May) : SISSIES!!!!
Mucky Tundra (22-May) : Sounds like both Kraft and Tom were injuried before OTAs began
buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Not serious but waiting for strength and conditioning coach referwnces.
buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Tom and Kraft both injured(pectoral muscle),
Zero2Cool (20-May) : I feel similar about person and product/service.
beast (17-May) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player
Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity
Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.
CanPackFan (16-May) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.
Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol
Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st
Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.
beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then
