Taking a look at our season...One thing I remember from early on in the season and much of the last part of last year is that when we had Clifton healthy as well as with all the other starters, Rodgers was sitting in the pocket with no worries. The Saints actually had to get out of their blitz packages cause Rodgers was burning the single coverage due to the blitzes not hitting home.

After Clifton went down Newhouse has been up down. He had 2 very bad games against Allen that Rodgers nullified by getting the ball out quick and with bootlegs. He's also had countless bad games other than playing the likes of Allen. Losing Sitton is obviously bad as well as Bulaga.

I will say this, playing at home on the slower turf with Clifton, Bulaga and Sitton will make a world of difference.

Goal right now should be dominating the Bears and getting the hell out of the regular season and by the time we play our first game we'll have all our weapons, aside from collins obviously. But I think the biggest thing is getting that offensive line back to health.

Thank you Rios.

I said in the offseason that we were one TE too many and one OL not enough. I love 🇹🇹 & 🇲🇲, but I think that was a mistake.

In the future, keep drafting 2 OL every year. Protect 🇦🇷.

That's true. We could have the starting offensive line for the playoffs that we had to begin the season. Then with Jennings and Starks back we'd be back to having all of our horses on offense. Hope they can all get healed up.

Technically, that should be "no fewer than" 2 OL.[boxing]

More worried about Cliffy than I am about Bulaga. If Cliffy comes back, Newhouse can be the swing tackle, backing up both sides.

Yep, getting that OL healthy is definitely the biggest concern right now for the pack. Rest up and get healed because we will need all the protection we can get in the playoffs.

The OL has been problematic for a while now. They were in the Super Bowl. Pittsburgh hit Rodgers several times in that game. He's just an amazing QB at thinking quickly. That's what teams do when they blitz him. They get him playing faster, which elevates his play. As a result, the OL looks better. With that said, I would agree that Chad Clifton makes a difference if they get him back. Marshall Newhouse has regressed to the point that I think they would’ve benched him for Derek Sherrod in the postseason. That’s why I think they gave Sherrod several reps in the Oakland game. I believe they were preparing him in case Clifton can't return. That's just speculation on my part, though.

beast (18h) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
