As personnel losses mount, Packers defensive coordinator Dom Capers might have to be even more creative with roles for players, situation substitution and his calls.

I'd like to know how often we ran it on 3rd and long because we have been awful at giving up the first down.

I am mostly concerned about the Packers defense when it goes up against a team with very good quarterbacks. So far the defense hasn't seen one, so we'll just wait and see how they do when it happens.

The closest I can think of is Matt Ryan, and that's a stretch.

Bridgewater is still and unproven rookie. Palmer is good but is not "very good", but he is close to edging it.

Romo is average, Luck isn't showing, Mariota is just starting. Right now there are two "very good" QBs in the league: Rodgers and Brady. If Rivers and Manning are very good then Wilson should be right there, and yes, we beat him.

There are a lot that are close to very good we have not beat, but I don't think the Packers will be seeing the dreaded "very good" qb this season... unless in the Super Bowl!

Also I'm not scared of Palmer, but there is something about the Cards and their new head coach, they don't get noticed (because they're the Cards) but they do seem to do a great job of maximizing the talents they do have and it's pretty impressive. They might not be the most talented but they get the most their jobs have to offer it seems.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
