Packers Try Out Tony Moll

Acording to PFTalk.com the Packers tried out Tony Moll... color me curious as hell why they would entertain this thought.

One could take the tea leaves approach and start to wonder about the true severity of the Bulaga injury.

One could try an apply that maybe the Packers have concerns on the inside as far as depth goes.

But it is curious, passed his understanding of the Packers system, why they would consider a washout like Moll. Is there really not a better option on the market?

Hence the peaked interest in the minor news.

I think at my height and weight, I could be more effective at blocking the RT position than Tony Moll, and I'm better looking.

On that list Max Starks (Vikings) and Ray Willis (Patriots) are both former 16 games starters are worked out (for the team I put next to their name). Starks a big boy 6-8/345, has start 68 games for the Steelers over 7 years but I think he's been known to have injuries. Willis has started 26 games over 5 years for the Seahawks.

Lol. Jarret Bush must have shared his black mail nudy pics of Ted Thompson with Moll so he could get this tryout. (Now I'm glad Bush had those....And I never thought I'd say that).

And being a vet, they don't have to keep him on the roster for any certain length of time, like they would have to if they called up a practice squader.

I don't think this says anything other than that they are one man down on the OL.

If there's a former player available, and the intent is a backup role, you can see the appeal. Moll was pretty damn bad, but if I'm not mistaken he was thrust into the starting lineup in only his second year. He didn't play much, and he didn't play particularly well, but he's managed to hang around the NFL since then. Not exactly the warmest of words or a vote of confidence, but right now the nightmare scenario is if Clifton/Newhouse have any injury troubles. Hopefully Bulaga is healthy/back soon.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

Mucky Tundra (3h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.

buckeyepackfan (4h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me
