Probably a horrible idea... NT Alan Branch be an upgrade at back-up NT if Raji goes to the IR?

Sounds like the Bills cut him because he's getting drunk at horrible times and might struggle to control a drinking problem... but hey some drunks can play well...

Like I said probably a horrible idea...but the guy has been a starter for 44 of the last 48 games (two season on the Seahawks and one on the Bills).

Branch is a guy who can play. I'd trust him over Mike Pennel and Josh Boyd. The funny thing about hearing we don't want a slow slug like Pickett because we're trying to get smaller and faster on the DL just doesn't make much sense when I looked at the signing of Mike Pennel who may be thrust into a prominent role.

Pennel seems to pass rush better than Pickett.... though I think I could argue Jolly does better than Pennel... of course Jolly has an neck injury and might not ever play again. I think they're just going to play a lot more one gap defense than two gap defense.

Sounds like the Chargers now have two injuries at NT and might have a bigger need for a NT than the Packers... so if the Packers want to grab someone they might need to do it quickly.

Also if the tweeter thing on the bottom right side is correct, Adan Schefter reported that the Patriots released vet DT Tommie Kelly... of course Kelly never lived up to his physical potential, and is coming off an ACL injury so might below normal. Just looking at times... of course the Packers are probably looking at younger guys.

Probably the wrong time, but I wanted NT Daniel McCullers... of course no team must of loved him as he fell to the last pick of the 6th round... but he looks better than Bradford right now and could of been had instead of Goodson as well.

Tommy Kelly is not really a NT type and he also was cut in favor of Jerel Worthy so there's that. McCullers I don't know a lot about how he's looked this preseason but I doubt he's been any better than Pennell.

Its Boyd and Pennell from here. I believe they can hold down the position. This injury at center is a far more pressing and urgent need. The kid has 11 days to prepare for the Seahawks in their building.

packerfanoutwest (2h) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (15h) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

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

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

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) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

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

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

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.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : They have that whole 12th man thing so ...

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Of the times we've played there, I just can't recall hearing our fans.

wpr (16-Dec) : Well done jdlax. Well done.

wpr (16-Dec) : I think more likely to be Pack fans that live in the area.

wpr (16-Dec) : Pack fans represent. I pointed it out early in the game to my wife. Announcers said Packers travel well.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : That was crazy to hear go pack go in Seattle of all plays. That 12 man thing an all

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : jdlax, good man!

jdlax (16-Dec) : Mucky, there were too many of us there to credit any single one but for sure i was 60% responsible.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : jdlax, I assume you were among the Packer fans that got the "Go Pack Go!" chant going in the first quarter. Very appreciated!

jdlax (16-Dec) : We are doing the thing out west my friends

beast (16-Dec) : Damn, should have picked the Buccaneers over Chargers

beast (15-Dec) : Note: DuBose was just going all out for questionable location ball, probably never saw the defender. Bad idea to throw it there.

beast (15-Dec) : Yeah, DuBose head went down and he nailed the defender with the top of his helmet, full head, neck, spine potential injury there

Mucky Tundra (15-Dec) : Grant DuBose carted off after taking a hard hit

Mucky Tundra (15-Dec) : I believe Saleh is still helping out. Whether or not he's in GB or how active he is, I cannot say

Martha Careful (15-Dec) : Is Robert Saleh still helping out the Packers? Is he in GB?

buckeyepackfan (14-Dec) : SDSU Jackrabbits on now. Wonder if Tucker is watching?

beast (13-Dec) : It's going to be interesting to see if they do anything with Alexander, such as ask him to ask a pay cut

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : both Romeo Doubs and Evan Williams have cleared concussions protocol

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : LaFleur said Jaire Alexander will NOT play Sunday

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : LaFleur says he thinks LB Edgerrin Cooper will play this Sunday.

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : Made copy/paste super fun

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : CTRL and DEL weren't working consistently at all.

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : Amazon steps were annoying. I already tried it on multiple computers, did restart, updated G Hub, ...keys no work.

beast (13-Dec) : Turns out we simply needed to restart the computer, it had no physical keyboard issue

beast (13-Dec) : Demanding that I change the keyboard as they needed that key (h I think) and changed it out and the issue stayed.

beast (13-Dec) : I remember when I was the new hire and default tech guy for an office, one letter on a common use keyboard when out and the top person was

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : Thought I was going bonkers.

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : I got a new keyboard and damn thing wasn't working half the time.
