Great news. I just hope he picks the right guy for the next hire because it’s time to start thinking superbowl in Green Bay.

I’m not sure I want the Fangio style anymore, tired of the soft defense.

Maybe Wink Martindale?

Jim Leohnard?

Who knows.

I know this sounds like I'm talking out of both sides of my mouth, and maybe i am…

First, I'd like to thank Joe Berry for the effort. He did a hell of a job the last half of the year with poor safeties and backup cornerbacks... so let's give him a little credit at least.

Second, I am glad we're going in a different direction. I think that we are
- weak against the run
- soft
- our tackling is not very good, and
- we need to be more aggressive. I realize that sometimes that's tough with inferior cornerbacks but I think you need to give it a try.

Third, I would love to see Jim Leonard in the job. Wink Martindale is a very intriguing idea and I could live with that as well.

Go Packers!!!!

My issue with Barry is he only turned it on when his ass was against the wall. The late season push saved him in 2022 but same push didn't save him in 2023.

It's annoying. He CAN coach, but doesn't know how or seem willing to be aggressive unless his back against the wall.

Barry still could remain on the Packers' staff in some capacity -- a possibility that is being discussed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Umm what?!?

Which leads me to think maybe they're looking at someone that has coached with Barry before, such as Brandon Staley or Ejiro Evero, whom both worked on the Rams with Barry.

I wasnt high on Barry when hired at all and was only going to give him so much patience. To my my surprise the 2021 defense, while not world beaters, wasnt terrible. Then whatever good there was from the 2021 was immediately flushed down the drain and we got the defense we did the past two years.

This is a huge crossroads for MLF. As GPG stated above, this a move that could make or break winning a title. The playoff performance vs Dallas and San Fran raised the bar considerably. As fun as last season is, going forward we're back to thinking about deep playoff runs as being the norm.

The the rapid growth of the offense may have sown an important seed. Had the the team continued to flounder, MLF would have entered the offseason looking at a hot seat season. What DC would want to hitch their wagon to that? But now with an offense that looks to be one of the best in football going forward, some established pieces on D with some potential young studs and tons of draft capital that looks like it will tilt to the defense this year, the DC job should be an attractive. The best harvest from the late season offensive surge might be landing a DC that can take this unit over the top.

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.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

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.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

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 (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

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!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
