So our dime package is going to be Burnett, Clinton-Dix, Shields, Williams, Hyde, and Hampton - with Davon House playing for whoever's injured that week. It gets a lot worse around the league.

Hopefully Dix is very intelligent - just wish he was faster. Nick Collins was sub 4.4 and Dix timed and 4.58 - that's a huge speed difference. I think a lot of Packers fans took Collins for granted - we've been very spoiled at that position.

My hope for Dix is that he is solid and doesn't give up bone-head plays.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

That's great, but he'll be defending guys like Megatron, Cordarrelle Patterson and Alshon Jeffery and Eric Ebron... all are a good deal faster... Ted got feisty with the charge that Dix ran a 4.62. All this talk pre draft how we needed speed to stop guys like Kaepernick and we take a turtle. I truly don't understand what Ted Thompson does in Round 1.

I am tired of giving up the big plays. hopefully he will help shut them down. TE coverage is a huge plus.

I think the most baffling thing to me is... FA was available to us to find a decent safety. Anything would've been an upgrade considering we had MD Jennings there. Instead of using FA to fill that need, we use our 1st rounder in a need pick.

He could be a fantastic pick...but this is one of the guys I just didn't want on this team.

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.

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

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

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell
packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies
Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!
Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.
Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.
