I didn't explain myself well enough :)

The current regime already made a big attempt to match the big punter bluff made by our previous regime (Bj shanker)

Now I guess they didn't want to match the Hillenmeyer bluff

I bet our spies got a report about a team that was going to sign Lansanah and they decided that they didn't want another Hunter Hillenmayer case on their profiles.

The Hunter Hillenmayer pickup was not on the current regime. I believe that was the Charmin Era.

White was tied for third this year with 6 ST tackles.... not a huge loss IMO.

Hopefully he clears Waiver's and we can get him back on our practice squad!

That would be sweet.

Yeah, you're wrong, but that's okay. It happens to everyone. Just because someone leads in tackling doesn't mean they are the best Special Teamer we have. That's like saying AJ Hawk is better than Charles Woodson cbecause he has more tackles, but in reality, I would have to believe Woodson is better.

The coaches are the ones who've has said the great things about Tracey White on Special Teams.

Why don't you compare apples to apples? AJ Hawk is better than Nick Barnett, even though Barnett makes more tackles.

Last time I checked tackles doesn't equate to being the best.. assignment and match up responsibilities are.

Apparently they felt that Lansanah could effectively replace White in special teams and offer more help on the defensive side of the ball. Hawk didn't look real fluid out there.. so I am guessing that they will try to nurse him along to get him healthy.. maybe even sit him.

White may have been a good to outstanding ST player... but he never in the years he has been here made a significant mark on the defensive side of the ball..

IMO.. bigger picture than just ST.

That comparison isn't as obvious as the one I made. My example also was not predicated upon position as we are discussing special teams.

It's my understanding that some players are asked to break the wedge for other defenders to make the stops. But hey, that's apples to oranges and bananas with pineapples.... 😉

Yeah, regardless of how well White was as a Special Teamer, I agree with you that its more about being on the defensive side instead of special teams.

I jus don't like seeing our special teams (which kind of sucks this year) take another blow. BUT who knows, maybe this new guy will be a tackling machine on BOTH special teams AND defense.

Lansanah was drawing interest from Miami and we didn't want to lose him. This move might have happened anyway because even though White was very good on special teams, he was kind of a no-show in the base defense. The team obviously feels that Lansanah has more upside there, and if so, they made the right decision.

And, who knows? We probably won't be able to keep Hawk and Barnett together forever. Thompson might be looking for a future starter and he already knew he didn't have one in White.

Zero2Cool (19h) : Malik to start. Love inactive. Per report. Let's go!!

buckeyepackfan (20h) : I think J-10VE will be inactive, a little twist that could be put in is run a wildcat with Wicks at qb. Have him as emergency qb if needed.

Zero2Cool (21-Sep) : I think that's how it works.

Zero2Cool (21-Sep) : I'd go 3 QB regardless this game.

Zero2Cool (21-Sep) : Clifford was elevated, not activated. He doesn't play, it doesn't count.

Zero2Cool (19-Sep) : Packers are in pads and so is Jordan Love. Second straight day of practice for QB1.

bboystyle (18-Sep) : If Love comes back, we win in a blow out

Zero2Cool (18-Sep) : Jordan Love just spoke with reporters and said he’s giving himself the week but hopeful to play Sunday against the Titans.

Zero2Cool (18-Sep) : Practicing is Jordan Love!

Zero2Cool (18-Sep) : Packers are signing WR Cornelius Johnson to the Practice Squad per sources. Johnson was a 7th round pick this year.

Zero2Cool (16-Sep) : Rams won’t have Cooper Kupp or Puka Nacua when they host the Packers in Week 5.

Mucky Tundra (16-Sep) : Or is that the Rusty Red Rifle because of his age?

Mucky Tundra (16-Sep) : The Red Rifle Returns!

Mucky Tundra (16-Sep) : bears still have slim chance here

Mucky Tundra (16-Sep) : and there's another one!

Mucky Tundra (16-Sep) : oh crap macbob has the Texans K and he keeps hitting these long FGs

Mucky Tundra (15-Sep) : Hope the Texans beat the brakes off the Bears

Zero2Cool (15-Sep) : LaFleur: “I asked Malik why he didn’t throw it on that third down and he told me Josh threw up on the ball.”

Mucky Tundra (15-Sep) : i was wondering why it was just you, me, beast and macbob by the end

Zero2Cool (15-Sep) : Yeah it was weird today for some reason

Mucky Tundra (15-Sep) : Oh my, marvin harrison jr might be as good as he was billed out to be

Mucky Tundra (15-Sep) : and none of the chats on my phone are showing up on the desktop chat

Mucky Tundra (15-Sep) : weird, i was on my phone for chat during the game but now on my desktop I look at chat and there's tons of chats i didn't see on my phone

Zero2Cool (15-Sep) : Oh yeah, for sure. That's just not fair thoguh.

Mucky Tundra (15-Sep) : Zero, what I meant was that surely a tech and IT genius such as yourself would find a way to change the pick

Zero2Cool (15-Sep) : Well, I mean, I know I did, but might not have waited for it to register and went into Chat. Oh well

Zero2Cool (15-Sep) : Or so I thought I did. lol

Zero2Cool (15-Sep) : I had Colts for few days to throw everyone off. At 11am or so, I changed it to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (15-Sep) : You know if you didn't say anything you probably could have changed it and no one would have noticed ;)
