i was at mini camp last Tuesday and I saw Montgomery struggle with the basic drills. He dropped a few passes and on the between the dummy drills he had to repeat it a few times.

I played Bill Billacheat and did a video lol

Yes I got yelled at for doing video 😝

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

This dude is cut from stone and has a Stanford education. I know he isn't going to break the rotation this year(barring injury), but I think he has something for the future.

Hopefully, he can improve his hands. That's not an easy task. A receiver without good hands isn't worth much, and one with bad hands is worthless.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Someone said he was muffing punts in OTAs, and that Abby had moved in front of him there.

Also in a college game against each other, I think CB Randall as a punt gunner stole a punt from Montgomery after Montgomery bobbled the catch and it hit the ground... Randall pushed Monty out of the way and got the ball.

KO returns is wide open!

Also I've read RB Neal has been worked on kick returns as well and have read he looks pretty good catching the ball as well.

We probably got a glimpse of the perceived depth chart by the order the WR went:
Cobb
Nelson
Adams
White
Janis
Abby
Pinkard
Coxsen
Hunt
Montgomery
Collins

Of course Monty got a late start.

I like Texas' idea of Monty playing 3rd down back; but it'll be too much for him to master as a rookie.

I really like White, he's shown a ton of effort and in past preseason games has made some great catches on questionable throws, I was slightly surprised no one claimed him on waivers last year. White probably isn't a special talent, but I think some teams out there might be worse #5 WR and maybe even #4 WRs than him.

I find Monty as a RB interesting idea ad they have used Cobb there and tried Dorsey there at least for a play, but I also sounds like RB Neal is looking much better and catches the ball extremely smoothly and I've heard some talks he might be used in a special packages like they wanted to use Franklin in a couple years ago.

I would find it hard to believe they would keep Myles over Abby or JJ.

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."

Zero2Cool (13h) : I guess 3 games. Whatever

Zero2Cool (13h) : Bleh, that only impacts two games.

Zero2Cool (13h) : Packers are gonna get 3rd place division schedule next year.

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Kanata, seek help! lol

beast (16h) : I was rooting for the Bears to win and hurt their draft pick status

Zero2Cool (16h) : Forgot there was even a game last night haha

TheKanataThrilla (17h) : That was terrible.

TheKanataThrilla (17h) : Watching that game in its entirety yesterday is proof positive that I am a football addict.

beast (17h) : And horrible time management multiple times... and not being able to score more than 3 points on a team with talent

beast (17h) : Realizing the Bears didn't fix it from the previous week and do the same thing, getting the game to overtime

beast (17h) : They probably are not tanking, but they've absolutely mismanagement some things, such as Vikings seeing the Packers blocked FG and realizing

Zero2Cool (18h) : Crazy of Bears to have that mindset that is

Zero2Cool (18h) : Hail Mary stop away from 5 - 2. Not sure how that flips to tanking. Crazy mindset if true

beast (19h) : I've quietly questioned if Bears are tanking on purpose... they suddenly got a lot worse with some simple concepts like 101 clock management

wpr (21h) : Watching bares fans melt down over how putrid their team is, so enjoyable. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Mucky Tundra (27-Dec) : The Seattle Seahawks defeat the Chicago Bears 6-3. Jason Myers had 6 RBIs for Seattle while Cairo Santos had 3 RBI for Chicago

beast (27-Dec) : Not nessarily, he might of been injured either way. He's playing about 50% of the games the last 4 years

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.

packerfanoutwest (26-Dec) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it

beast (26-Dec) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.

Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!

Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!

beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
