I am still a little baffled why my name is on this thread when it's nerdmann's post that headlines it. 🤦

If we're thinking about the same play, he just got up and pointed down field signifying that he picked up a first down.

I thought the same thing. Put in a few weeks of consistent good performance before you start celebrating like that over one decent play. Preferably be ahead on the scoreboard too.

Was less than a week ago when people were jumping all over me when I said that Finley looked like he wasn't giving it his all. Chalk it up to effort or concentration or whatever, he's not getting it done. No point in benching him yet but he's digging his own grave with his value on the free agent market. Hopefully he doesn't dig ours in the playoffs. I'd be angrier at Finley if Driver and Jones hadn't dropped one each as well, but Finley dropped three (or was it four).

Going 16-0 means nothing unless you win it all. I wouldn't say that going 16-0 would mean nothing to me but I'd rather have one more superbowl than three 16-0 seasons.

Finley is still the biggest play maker on offense outside of Greg Jennings. He and Jennings are the only players on the offense that can beat coverage on their own. Everyone else benefits from the system, including Nelson.

I’m also annoyed that he doesn’t’ catch more of those balls, but I think he is just pressing too hard to be an elite player. I hope the Packers hold on to him, because at some point the game is going to come to him and he’ll have some break own performances. A lot of fans are forgetting how utterly dominant he looked at the beginning of last season before getting hurt. I think that guy still exists, he’s just fighting to get out right now.

I disagree with this. No one on offense had shown any emotion up until Finley beat the coverage, made an all-star adjustment on the ball and came down with the catch. The only player on offense who had any spark up until this moment was Grant (who I wish MM and AR had ridden a bit more) and I was glad to see him celebrate. Unfortunately the rest of the team didn’t seem to be paying attention.

I see a silver helmet with a blue star on it for Finley's future to be perfectly honest with you go.pack.go. Look for another 6-6 athletic junior tight drafted in the fourth round of the draft.

I'm still pretty pissed about the Quarless injury on a play the refs fucked up on!

I don't know what the hell is wrong with the guy. Is he playing scared? He was obviously better as a rookie. Last year, when Rodgers was forcing him balls, Finley was catching them all. Rodgers was literally throwing him open, and Finley was just looking sexy. (for lack of a better term)

That rapport is gone. Honestly, I think Rodgers and Finley have to do some 1-on-1 work. Or at least have Finley be a focal point in practice. Because there's something wrong. We all know Finley doesn't REALLY suck.

It was a very good adjustment and catch, but yeah, string at least two quarters of no drops before celebrating. I was glad to see his emotion, just kind of felt like he should be doing more before celebrating.

I have no clue, other than your post was the first moved/split for some reason.

Anyone more familiar with a "broken leg" know if it will have any long-term implications career-wise for Sherrod? I sure hope not, but a nasty leg break seems like it could be potentially career threatening. Someone tell me otherwise!

No idea, however being a OL I think perhaps its less career changing than say a RB or WR. That's from the Mr Obvious book by the way.
