well we knew Coleman wasn't going to be the answer. We just didn't know who they would pick up for the back up job.

Also, Wallace's familiarity with Holmgren's WCO is so completely removed from McCarthy's WCO. Two completely different coaching trees and philosophies. One is Walsh/Homlgren. The other Coryell/Schottenheimer.

All I do know is Thompson always liked Wallace since his U-Washington days, where there was a lot to like.

Bring back Favre. I'd rather have him backing up Rodgers.

    Packers had to release B.J. Coleman because Seneca Wallace needed his number. But I don't know why all the fuss about the backup QB. Other than the Rams over a decade ago, when has a backup QB really been important?

    I think LT is more of an issue.

    The ineffectiveness of Coleman in preseason is mostly attributable to playing with backups. I do not see Wallace as an improvement at all over either Coleman or Young - Harrell? 50/50 on that one.

    As I and others have said, the Packers O and D without Aaron Rodgers ain't gonna threaten anybody. Thus, short of getting Peyton or Brady or Brees for a backup, the season would be down the toilet if Rodgers went down - no more so with Coleman than with anybody else.

    At least Vince Young could have run for his life and gained some that way. I don't know, is Seneca Wallace a decent runner? I've never heard that he is.

    Anyway, the season ain't down the drain just because we got a different clipboard holder.

    why not bring back Favre, he can git-r-done as backup!

    I really wish Ted Thompson would try to get Matt Flynn back from Oakland to backup Rodgers...

    I don't really care much about who the back is but I knew it would not be Coleman.

    It's not too late to tell Vince Young we made a mistake.

    I don't see why people are making a big deal out of this..

    Only thing I wish is that they stick with one QB. I would of been fine with Young. I said that Harrell should hit the road, and that Coleman should hit the PS. Seems like that's the way it's going.

    Were we freaking out last year when Graham Harrell was backing up Rodgers? I didn't see this kind of commotion last year this time.. I don't see the hoopla now that we have a better QB in Wallace than Harrell.

    I'll say it again, it won't matter who backs up Aaron Rodgers. It doesn't matter who backs up the best QBs in the league. If their star QB goes down it will be over.

    I wish people would just move on till we draft a worthy QB to replace Rodgers and that won't be for a while.

    Seneca Wallace was originally drafted by Ted Thompson in Seattle

    dfosterf (36m) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo
    Zero2Cool (2h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha
    wpr (2h) : Tomorrow is almost here.
    packerfanoutwest (2h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?
    packerfanoutwest (2h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him
    Zero2Cool (4h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.
    packerfanoutwest (15h) : don't care
    Zero2Cool (20h) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?
    packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.
    Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat
    wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.
    wpr (22-Apr) : now 3
    Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?
    beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
    Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh
    Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
    Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.
    Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast
    wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
    wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
    wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
    Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
    dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
    wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
    beast (18-Apr) : 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
