I think Francois got a lot of playing time in the preseason and looked decent. He's the guy who creamed Joseph Addai and gave him a concussion on that fumble return (it was a clean hit).

Too bad these new guys both got crummy numbers in the 40s. Unfortunately, the Packers have been through so many linebackers this year that they've run out of numbers in the 50s. We've got another linebacker who is number 93, which is a good number overall, but weird for a linebacker.

I love numbers in the 90s... for OLBs. Walden's 93 looks pretty good. Jeremy Thompson's 99 looked pretty good on him, as well. 74 on Kampman, not so much, but numbers in the 70s are real O-line and D-line numbers.

You make a good point about Jeremy Thompson's 99. It did look pretty cool. I'm not even a fan of 99 on defensive linemen (it seems silly, like they're saying "I'm the biggest guy!"), but it worked for Thompson as an LB. Then there was Bryce Paup, of course--number 95. He single-handedly made numbers in the 90s safe for LBs. The difference with Walden is that he's an unknown player and he probably had to take the number just because they ran out of 50s. If he starts playing well, the 93 will look a lot better on him.

I remember a Middle Linebacker that filled out 91 very well.

Don't have a clue, either.

I do know that Hunter Hillenmeyer's number 92 looks very much out of place when he's subbing in as a MLB. 90s just don't look good on inside guys.

Once again I'm chuckling at all the people who were so distraught that the Packers cut Havner this preseason.

This 91 wasn't too bad either

Thanks. I thought of it as soon as I got to work. I didn't see the Packers play much in the late 80s and early 90s, as I was living far from home and did not know about sports bars.

I can understand why people questioned the move, and it's not like Donald Lee and Tom Crabtree have been tearing up the league this year. So I don't know what there is to chuckle about.

...Recently added players Robert Francois and Josh Gordy are two who could see action Sunday. Francois, as you probably remember, made the fateful formation error on a punt that gave Miami new life and allowed them to score a touchdown instead of giving up the ball.

French, you say? :tongue3: :signeek:

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

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

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