Although I don't like his comments sometimes, I can live with that. The 13 drops really bothers me more than anything. I'm not hating on him when I mentioned the trade, it just a player of high value where a defensive player of the same talent at those positions would help us more and there wouldn't be a huge dropoff from our replacements. Hell, if they would do it I would trade Finley, Jones and a 1st for JJ Watt!!! Too bad the Texans don't have that need.

Maybe it's not normal for him but it still begs the question: What the fuck, dude? Thirteen fucking drops?!?

I was pleased to hear Finley say he was going to "freestyle" this season, and by his definition that is "Just go out and let loose. Don't worry about anything." I think we'll see an improved Finley this season. I wouldn't be surprised if he tops 65 receptions, 900 yards and 10 TD'S.

The 13 drops hurt for sure when a guy acts like he should be the go to receiver on the team. It wasn't just the 13 drops that hurt but if my memory serves me correctly...many of them were drive ending drops in pressure situations. 55 receptions is awesome for any TE...but 55 receptions to 13 drop ratio is unacceptable at a professional level.

Nah, actually I expected most people to get it.

Now, people might not know who the Purple People Eaters were....but those were Vikings, after all, so who cares.

Finely made a nice grab on a high throw to keep the drive alive for their first TD. That was a game changer.

It felt great. Not extra work at all. It was much-needed. It was great to get reps from both quarterbacks. I know we talk about ‘12’ all the time but Graham did an awesome job today.

It’s beneficial, for sure. It was good to get my feet back under me overall and get the conditioning up. I’m just excited for next week, man.

beast (13h) : 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.

buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4

Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills

Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Lions are signing QB Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

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.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

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

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

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

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
