Mike can point the finger at Ted all he wants, but it's his own inability to utilize his own players that continues to cost us.

How many teams get get down to their #5 and #6 WRs and still get it done in the playoffs? THANKS TED.

It's too bad this was sourced out by Bob Lies4Clicks McGinn.


Wait, the first FIVE selections of the draft provided help and that's viewed negatively here? You gotta be kidding? If you can get good help from any five draft picks each year, that is a helluva positive thing.

I want to read mike MCCarthy's comments where he says he is fed up with Ted Thompson's approach. Not some bitter hack's interpretation of a coaches frustrations on a frustrating season. Who are these sources Bob. If you don't want to name them I get that but what exactly did they say. How specifically did Mike tell them that he was fed up with Ted? That doesn't matter because sensational headlines are all that really matter in what passes for journalism now days.

If Mike really is talking shit about Ted behind Ted's back, he could be gone sooner than later. Let's not forget Aaron's antics this season either. He might be the source, trying to pit the two against each other. Hard to say.

MM isn't going to say this publicly so the best you're going to get is something like this...now, it is up to you whether you believe it or not. I believe it 100%. Anyone who actually wants to win would feel this way.

That is surface thinking. Big picture thinking considers more than base details that 5 guys helped. It considers the quality of the help given. When you only draft and develop that necessitates that the guys who are drafted have to play whether they should be playing or not but we've never seen that in Green Bay, have we? 😁

This organization has had 24 years of unprecedented QB play. 2 rings. SF had 20 years of Montana and Young and reeled in 5 rings.

I'm so tired of reading how people with expectations should just chill and realize how great we actually have it. We should be seeing greatness but all we get is good and people happy with that. Don't get it.

EDIT: Buck, I just got done reading from the search function. Use: AJ Hawk and Buckeyepackfan ...Oh,you're right...you never used the exact words of AJ Hawk being a great draft pick but boy oh boy did you say it without using those exact words. Also, I found it funny reading some of your other posts. Trying to stick it in my face that Davante was a good WR because he replaced Jarrett Boykin and how stupid I was for saying he was going to be a disappointment using passing Boykin for your reasoning. Surface, Buck. Surface. AJ Hawk played for x amount of years and had x amount of tackles therefore he was a great player. You did type that. You thought he was an excellent player for us for 8 years. I will say it again...IF he makes the Packers Hall of Fame there is no reason to ever visit the Packers Hall of Fame because putting a guy like Hawk in just trashes the quality of what it should represent. He was a TERRIBLE 5th overall pick for this franchise.

Here's my take on some of the points:

While FA isn't the way to build a team, it can be a tool to fill in some weak spots. If Ted Thompson has a fault, it's his almost religious aversion to FA. He needs to be more flexible.

The coaching shakeup seemed to be a mess this year. That needs to be resolved. I know they are grooming Edgar Bennet for a future head coaching job, but that shouldn't be done at the expense of having a position coach.

Personnel adjustments during the season were a mess as well. When Tretter was brought in as a draft pick it was because of his versatility. They should have given him a shot before Barclay or Sitton, as mentioned.

Unmentioned was the enormous number of drops by the receivers this year. That better get fixed pronto or some guys, including Cobb, need to be on the bus.

I forgot, this is the internet, One doesn't have to be responsible for anything that is said.

You called Hawk a slug, I say you are wrong.

I say he will be inducted into The Packer HOF, you say I am wrong.

Back up your words son!

How much?

We had a bad year. Its everyone's fault. We didn't win the division for the 5th straight year, that sucks. We didn't win the super bowl, that also sucks. Thompson probably could do a better job in free agency. I'm willing to bet money we win the division next season. After that, the playoffs are any given Sunday. I can't handle another off season of the same whiny pointless shit. Bitching for the sake of bitching. Never do I read solutions, only hollow complaints.

Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (11h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (15h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (15h) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16h) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (17h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (17h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (17h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (17h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (18h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (18h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (19h) : 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
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
