Although he is a straight up man-coverage player, the Vikings will be too desperate to even realize this and will snatch him up by the end of today, furthermore extending Chilly's stay, only until Harris lets up the first TD from blown coverage, and the fans start throwing bricks.
Mark it, Dude.

I don't think Harris will get claimed off waivers, but he will sign somewhere once he clears them. I would love if he signed somewhere outside of the division, but it's hard to think if someone like Minnesota would come calling who badly needs the secondary help, that he wouldn't consider signing there.

Let's hope they'll sign him, so we can pick on him when we play the Vikes.

Harris will fit in just great in Minnesota's scheme.

Damn. Didn't see this coming. It can't be an injury thing - else they couldn't cut him, right?

I'm thinking the Packers told him he'd be the nickel (or dime) CB when he came back and Al decided he'd rather try for a starting job elsewhere.

I do agree that he'll be a Viking before the 21st...

Did Harris take a crap in your cereal bowl or something? Let's pick on him? He's not some douchebag that we never really liked and want to make him look bad. More than anything, we should just hope that he doesn't go to the Vikings. Not because we don't want to play against him, but because we don't EVER want our kind to become a Viking.

Shame on you.

Sam Shields' growth as a rookie CB probably has something to do with this. Shields is the season's biggest and best surprise for the Packers so far. He plays like a veteran.

Why am I the only one who's happy to see him go? I never thought he'd step foot on the field this year (do a search of my posts -- I've been saying this the entire offseason), and the last thing I wanted was for him to take up a valuable roster spot. Maybe the Packers can bring him in for a look next year, after he's a year and a half removed from one of the most severe injuries this league has ever seen. I see no way he would have made it through the entire season without reaggravating that knee.

I highly doubt any other team will pick him up, but if one does, I'm willing to bet a week's wages he never starts.

You're not alone NON, I'm a heartless prick just like you. This is a problem with Packer fans, always reaching for Nostalgia. Al's way to old to make a comeback from that injury. He made a great effort and we supported him end of story. Shields has made him expendable as Bulaga has made Tauscher expendable.

We have a place to honor Al and Tausch, it's called the Packer Hall of Fame.

agreed peterlan...why 'hate on' harris? He's been loyal to the team worked hard, and thus far has handled himself with dignity when if any of us were in his shoes, likely would have been inclined to take a cheap shot at the organization.

Sadly it appears that it was a move that had to be made, but there's no need for Schadenfreude

we should of kept him for loyalty reasons.

So let me get this straight. We should field a less-than-optimal team, risk losing games, out of a misguided sense of loyalty? That makes no sense to me.

Hmmmmmm. Hyperbole?

Not in the least. Do some reading on his injury. It was horrific.

Zero2Cool (2h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (2h) : HUMP DAY

beast (2h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (2h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (2h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (2h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (2h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (2h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (2h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (2h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (3h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (4h) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (4h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (4h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (4h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (5h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (5h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (18h) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats beast on 2024 !

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : I'm rooting for the Lions to lose.
