Looking back at last year, who would of thought our defense would turn out like this?

Never would have guessed we would be so banged up and such poor tacklers. Its very depressing. I love hard nosed defense.

Flowers was short, Merling had an injury concern.

If they wouldn't have started out good

Flowers = Carroll

Merling = Harrell (Two injury plagued DL in a row - I'm sure noone would have had a problem with that 🙂

Don't remember hearing this when we were 13-3 and deep in the playoffs.

Funny how that works.

Pat Lee looked good last week besides that BS pass interference call. I wanted Ted Thompson to trade down and nab Merling, but I can understand the injury concerns especially after Justin Harrell's struggles so far.

From what I can gather, and this is totally tentative because I don't think drafts ca be judged until two to three years later.

Good Picks

Jordy Nelson - contributes in return game and as 4th wide out

Pat Lee - could be a starter down the road

Josh Sitton - was starter in training camp and is working his way back

Matt Flynn - surpassed Brohm and is impressing everyone. great pick.

Bad Picks

Brian Brohm - looks lost and tenative, but hey so did Rodgers his first
season

Jermichael Finley - haven't seen alot but has had two very costly and
stupid penalties on special teams

Jeremy Thompson - no effort out there which disappoints me

Brett Swain - hes a late 7th rounder so cut Ted Thompson some slack

Not enough Info

Let me first say I don't think we've seen enough on any drafted player who's played less than three seasons, but... I think JerMichael Finley will be a decent TE in the future for us.

Zero2Cool (4h) : I'm not beating anyone. I stinks.

Mucky Tundra (5h) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (6h) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (8h) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (9h) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (9h) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (9h) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (20h) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Dan Campbell on onside kick with 12 minutes left: In hindsight, wish I didn’t do that

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : They have that whole 12th man thing so ...

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Of the times we've played there, I just can't recall hearing our fans.

wpr (16-Dec) : Well done jdlax. Well done.

wpr (16-Dec) : I think more likely to be Pack fans that live in the area.

wpr (16-Dec) : Pack fans represent. I pointed it out early in the game to my wife. Announcers said Packers travel well.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : That was crazy to hear go pack go in Seattle of all plays. That 12 man thing an all

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : jdlax, good man!

jdlax (16-Dec) : Mucky, there were too many of us there to credit any single one but for sure i was 60% responsible.
