[THOUGHTS] Aaron Rouse · PACKERSHOME

After watching him play and then re-watching the game last night. The guy worries me. I love his reckless abandon that he plays with, but man, he's gonna get hurt.

The guy just throws his body around like its made out of rubber. There were a few hits that I didn't think the guy he hit would get up, and also worried that he wouldn't get up either.

I'd also like it if he and the rest of our secondary would wrap up when they hit instead of just lowering a shoulder.

Rouse can rest his body after Bigby comes back because he'll be sitting on the bench :icon_smile:

As for Rouse hitting to hard, isn't that what he's suppose to do as the SS?

I also wish the DB would wrap up more and strip the ball...

I never said he shouldn't hit hard. I'm just saying he could be a little wiser about his angles. 🙂

Thoughts?

He's a hell of a football player.

He's a hitter, let him hit.

Who is telling him NOT to hit?

Jesus christ people... I never said for him to freaking talk people to a knee instead of him hitting them.

I jus say that he hes very reckless when he tries to blow people up. Its fun to watch, I just worry that he's going to hurt himself and be on the bench nursing an injury.

To be honest...no. I was always told to wrap up, put your helmet on the ball, and hit them as hard as you can. Then again I was a DT which I think might make a difference, because the DL doesn't usually pick how hard your hit'em you just hit'em and get them down.

I never said he shouldn't hit hard. I'm just saying he could be a little wiser about his angles. :)

I've been complaining about Rouse angles. Rouse problems seem to be mental mistakes and not physical problems. He needs to take better angles and wrap up and he would be a lot better.

But where is the line between hitting to hard and not hitting hard enough?

He does need to wrap up, he's not like Bigby where all of his blow up go to the ground.

All I am saying is the dude needs to be wiser when he hits people. I never said to hit less, hit softer or any of that garbage.

Hit the shit out of people has ALWAYS been my motto. Football is a game amongst men! Not kids. You hit as hard as you can.

What I am saying that ya'all seem to miss even tho I've said it more than once is to hit smarter. Use better angles and wrap up when you hit!

I don't know about him. He seems like a ballhawk, but at times he seems way out of position giving away huge plays (Lions game). He's still young, but he could definitely develop into a legit starter.

The Pack Will Be Back.

Yeah he does great things but he isn't Collins, not yet anyways. He doesn't start if Bigby is out and the reasons you stated are why. They are mistakes that your starters do not make as much if at all.

beast (2h) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (2h) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (7h) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (7h) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8h) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8h) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8h) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8h) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (12h) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

dfosterf (12h) : Zero- Did you see what I posted about Voice of Reason and his wife? She posted over at fleaflicker that they are both "In"

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Well, not crazy, it makes sense. Crazy I didn't notice/find it earlier

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : it's crazy how one stored procedure to get data bogged everything down for speed here

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Yesterday my wife and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront here in Alexandria, Va. A daycare company took about 15 three/four year olds

wpr (7-Aug) : seems faster. yay

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Update: Rock has tried a cheese curd, promises it's not his last

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Rock claims to have never eaten a cheese curd

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : We did not leave.

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin
