Happy Thanksgiving RP but I want to know how he is classified a great talent evaluator when you look at this team. How many draft picks has he wasted on the offensive line? How many defensive players has not worked out that he has drafted. He gets lucky with the WRs and thats about it. He had Rodgers fall to him and besides that how many qbs has he drafted that flopped?

I am not about assigning blame because it is non productive. With that said, I am all about moving forward. Next year there are several players that need replacing on our current team, because there is a lot of heartless suckage out there combined with mediocrity making way too much money. First of all, Raji and Pickett have got to go. If we want to continue a 3-4, you have to have an anchor nose tackle. Pickett is too old for that now, and Raji is just plain and simple too fucking lazy to get it done. Next up is AJ Hawk, who can't cover so he lost weight to be faster, and now he can't tackle a fullback without getting pancaked. Those three guys make way too much money to play like ass week in and week out.

On offense we need an infusion of talent on the line. Not one of those guys is even close to being an All Pro, and I don't know if you want to blame the coaching or talent evaluator. We are going to need a tight end, and a competent fullback.

Oh if the world was truly as simple and narrow-minded as it is through Texas' eyes. I'm certainly thankful it's not, though.

See Texas, I'm not the only one that thinks you're a Dumbass! But you keep up your opinions. Boomers know everything after all.

How many losing seasons has Ted had in the last 7-8 years? 2? Stop this nonsense. If I had to put anything on Teds head this year it has to be not sticking with one backup Quarterback. Unacceptable playing with 3 Quarterbacks since losing Arod to injury. Albeit Wallace was injured but still, even before the season we couldn't find one.

and thanks to a Jackson punt return we got into the dance.

In week 1, if Calvin Johnson isn't robbed out of a touchdown against the Bears by incompetent officiating the Packers win the North and and get the 2nd seed in the NFC.

But hey, we weren't a good team that year, despite never trailing by more than a touchdown and, you know, winning the Super Bowl. As the most injured team that season.

Spastics.

As for QB, that is at least partly on Mike for not developing either of the two guys we had. I do think, especially in hindsight, that they should have picked Flynn up when he first became available. But he didn't do much today anyway.

As for S, well McMillian never became a player. Neither did Jennings. Banjo looks like he might be competent. Now we've also got Richardson and Hyde. Be nice to see what they've got.

The problem on D is that guys continue to not know who to cover and continue to not maintain their gaps in the trenches.

Also, there are some right spoiled, insufferable twats in Packer land. Today sucked. Move on. The constant bitching and moaning about everyone and everything sucking from some of you is nauseating. There are some serious things this team needs to fix. Some have called out those weaknesses in level-headed, reasonable ways. There's a ton more (both on this site and otherwise) who have pissed and moaned like a spoiled brat with a skinned knee. Revisionist history and excessive hyperbole. Fucking gag me.

So he got fired after 1 losing season and this will be MM's 2nd so why is he still here?

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : on new site, would Fan Shout and GameDay Chat show same messages?

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : The Hall of Fame stuff probably came from a scout as Zero said; at this point though it's hard to see them moving ZT from RT

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : Regarding ZT at C, Gute had said he felt C was ZTs best position after he was drafted.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Based on how it was worded at the time, probably scout.
