Are people going to cry if it ends up being Newhouse as our LT of the future? That is a big boy at 330lbs. Maybe we can actually gets some holes blown open on that side for a change.

I hope Sherrod wins the LG job, but I don't think he will beat out TJ. McDonald should concentrate on beating out Wells for the Center position. I've always said that Wells is too light in the ass for some of the DT's in the league. He gets by on playing with outstanding leverage, but his position could be upgraded.

Awesome notes. So far, I'm excited about Cobb, Newhouse, Lang, and our new TE's.

Ted Thompson is one hell of a general manager. Is he mentoring someone on our staff currently? I sure hope so, because he will be TOUGH to replace.

I am happy that Sherrod is getting some reps at LG, but with the way Lang and McDonald are sounding (and Lang with the game experience), I hope they get the nod over him...that is of course, if they earn it. Sherrod is still working on learning a new technique in blocking and said himself he doesn't remember the last time he has played the guard position. Makes me wonder if trying him out at left guard is a waste of time when you have guys like Lang and McDonald sitting there.

Glad to hear...
-Lang looks a lot better than last camp.
-Walden is bigger and badder.
-Raji already looks to be in mid-season form.
-Cobb is learning quick and showing it.
-Bulaga stonewalled Matthews once (just once).
-Rookie tight ends are playing well.

Anyone have anything to say about what Nagler had mentioned about our running backs? Starks being the best back on the team...

I absolutely hate not being in GB anymore for these couple weeks of the year.. nothing better than sitting back and seeing things with your own eyes. Miss that.

If Newhouse and Sherrod can both play LT, then Cliffy doesn't make the team. Lang starts at RG, McDonald backs up the interior.
And yeah, Starks and Walden are gonna light it UP.

It's like fans used to give Bigby credit for his hard hits and so many tackles. He was giving up plays with poor coverage that wrapping them up after wards... the other team still got the play and moved the yards well.

But I'm glad to hear that both Zombo and Walden look and/or seem to be playing stronger. Haven't heard it about Jones.

dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eeri

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?

beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Packers coach Matt LaFleur hires Luke Getsy as senior assistant, extends Rich Bisaccia's deal

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Exactly buck...Washington came up with the ball. It is just a shitty coincidence one week later

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : I think this games over

beast (26-Jan) : Eagles sure get a lot of fumbles on kickoffs

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : This game looks too big for Washington

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : that being said, The Ravens are the Browns

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : Browns, Dolphins have longest AFC Championship droughts

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : As of today, Cowboys have longest NFC Championship drought,

beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)

beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab

Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
