I've always liked Collinsworth. I like the sound of his voice (no homo).

But anyway, I'm glad he has confidence in the Pack.

Chris has gotten better...I used fo change channels whenever I saw him! He was way opinionated to the point he knew it all and nobody else knew anything. Not so bad now.

3) We have 4 tackles for 2 tackle positions with Bulaga and Lang.

I noticed that too. We have FOUR tackles, plus Newhouse is a guy who could potentially play the position.

I think Collinsworth is far and away the best TV analyst out there. He used to be annoying, with all of his big opinions, but he really grew into his role.

He makes some good points in the article. Can't wait for the season to start.

I like Harlan, he is very knowledgeable, gives good info and is to the point. I hate listening to Lerivee(sp) he really grates on me. He is very hard to follow. His annoucing is very misleading as to the action. His interviewing and commenting outside the actual game is fine. Man, I miss Jim Irwin and Max.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Really? I love listening to Wayne Larivee. His voice just adds to the game IMO. I love when he says "And THERE, IS, YOUR, DAGGER!!". haha.

I think that's him that I'm thinking about. Maybe I've got the two announcers backwards. Actually I think I do.

But anyway, I like both of them.

I gave you a plus one. I kind of feel this way. He (Larivee) Doesn't give a good description to what's going on, in my view. The "dagger" comment is ok. But overall, he doean't really sound like he cares. Irwin and Mcgee NEVER made you wonder "Is this GOOD or BAD for the Packers?" You KNEW in their voices which way it was.
Larivee was an announcer for the Bears. I don't think he has the connection with "our" team that Irwin and McGee had, and it shows in his game calling.

I believe he has always been a Packer fan, but announcing for the Bulls (and a little bit the bears) in the 80's / early 90's was the only avenue he was able to take at the time. But that is from what I remember.

I think his announcing for the Big Ten Network has caused him to become more objective in his play calling for the Packers. I kind of wish he would quite that gig and go Packers full time.

I can agree with that. But he's announcing for US. What's wrong with being a "homer" when you are the announcer for the home team on the home network?
I EXPECT a "homer" in that position.

Mucky Tundra (5m) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (1h) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (6h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (6h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (6h) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (6h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (6h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (6h) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (16h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (16h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (16h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (17h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (17h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (17h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (18h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (18h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (18h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (18h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (18h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (18h) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (18h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (18h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (18h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (18h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (19h) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (19h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (19h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (19h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (19h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (19h) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (19h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (19h) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (19h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (19h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (19h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (19h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (19h) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (19h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half

Mucky Tundra (19h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire

Martha Careful (19h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs

Mucky Tundra (19h) : this game is over

Mucky Tundra (19h) : This might be the kill shot here

Mucky Tundra (20h) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Philly DL has come to play

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Ceoper DeJean with the INT scored...bad memories of draft night
