I'm definitely shocked!
Gettig rid of the punter and holder at this point in time is a curious move.
Now we have a new long snapper, punter and holder in a very crucial part of the game.
And I valued Hodge more than Giaccomoni. Ted Thompson knows best.

this is flat out weird. Ryans numbers were better last year, and has proven that he can punt in bad weather.

He did have his bad games last year, but i thought he was pretty consistent as a punter.

Wow......i wonder what caused all this? The Packers must have had their eye on "Jack" Frost, and hoped to get him. He must be special.
I hate to see Ryan gone......i liked him.

I wasn't expecting this at all. Not Jon Ryan or Abdul Hodge. Strange.

I wonder if that new punter will be given the same number he wore in Washington 😉

Well in the regular season stats for last season Jon Ryan was ranked 31st and Derrick Frost was ranked 21st. I don't know if playing devil's advocate helps in this situation though. A lot of us, including me, liked Jon Ryan. Frost's net yards were 2,730 while Ryan's were 2,331.

Wow cut a cold weather punter and a up and coming tough playing linebacker....and keep "BURN ME OFTEN BUSH"? I think Ted Thompson hit the communion cup a little hard this morning.

Hodge. F**k. I stood by Ted Thompson through the whole BF thing, but this is unacceptable.

J/K. I'm still pissed though.

This sounds like a bunch of crap to me. Why did we need to make this move?

Don't tell me you couldn't get anything for Hodge, or release Bush instead. This smells really bad if you ask me.

I'm with you on that. I've been supporting Bush, but when it comes down to Bush or Hodge... c'mon now.

I'd rather keep Hodge over White, but every time I've doubted TT, he's proved me wrong (jury is still out on Harrell).

The NFL is a game of field position. I'd rather have a consistently solid punter pinning the opposition inside the 10 than one who can dazzle you with a 70 yard punt that goes into the endzone for a touchback.

I will miss Ryan on trick punts. Maybe Ruvell Martin is the new holder?

beast (10h) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (11h) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (20h) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (20h) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (23h) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooo 8 point game with 4 minutes to go!

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooooooohhhhhh he missed!

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE

packerfanoutwest (21-Jan) : Zero, per your orders, check Bearshome, not packershome

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Then he'll land with another team and flourish.

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Ben going to Bears. He'll be out in 3 years.

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : what's so funny?
