The little I did see in the second half seemed to be plays where they kept someone in to help Sherrod. I don't mind having a player in to help out on blocking but if a 1st round pick needs hep something is wrong.

He is still learning.

I guess that's why the kept Kuhn around one more year, he is till the best at protecting Rodgers.

IMO Sherrod played better this week, NFL schedulers didn't do The Packers running game any favors putting them against 2 of the best run defenses in the league to start the season.

Next up The Lions, doesn't get any easier.

I suspect Green Bay will run the ball better this week, and opening against the Seahawks and Jets only helps their preparation. I think it'll be important for McCarthy (and Rodgers at the line, who makes plenty of checks) not to abandon the run too early. Detroit's weakness is still its secondary -- which is really banged up -- but you can't expose it if you're getting sacked every play.

Need to keep running the ball even if the big gains aren't there. And I'm of the believe we have to get the other backs involved. We were at our best last year when we had a little flash (Starks) to our thunder (Lacy).

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

I had a lot of respect for the Jets this year going into this game and that didn't change. They look like a team that is ascending behind an improving and mobile 2nd year quarterback.

I won't go by record. I'll go by what I see. Geno Smith looks like the real deal and that defense is rounding into form very well. They need Decker to stay healthy on offense to stay competitive though. He went out in our game unfortunately for them. The AFC East could actually be fun to watch this year for a change!

Zero2Cool (15m) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (45m) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (58m) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (1h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (2h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (13h) : don't care

Zero2Cool (18h) : 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

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

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
