That's Uffda and Nerdmann's MO's. I have much to teach my grasshoppers.

A team that has SB aspirations doesn't release it's best OL on the cut to 53 with NOBODY behind him. Who was it exactly that stood out to you that made you say...Hey, we're good...we don't even need Sitton anymore? Who was THAT guy?

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."

If they sign Sitton to a lower contract, then your comments will look foolish.

Let's just let this next week play out before getting hysterical. It is 53 players, this and future cap space and budgets.

Playing chicken or poker, don't overreact.

Finally, and again for emphasis...WHO is taking his spot? There is no Rodgers behind Favre here. There's GARBAGE behind him. Barclay has been floated. Don Barclay? That's like saying we covered for releasing Rodgers by trading for Joel Stave. C'mon, man. This is ridiculous.

Barclay, according to Bob McGinn (who is the best Packers' beat writer IMO) played his best as a Packer at C this off-season. Maybe Barclay starts and Tretter is shifted to G?

Lane Taylor was paid $4+ million this summer - you assume it was for something other than just sitting around.

Most of last season Sitton wasn't practicing. If McCarthy's constant harping on availability is to be taken seriously, maybe that struck a chord with Mike / Ted? You have to think if chemistry is important on o-line, practicing together through the week has to mean a good deal.

Not going to lie, though: in no one's wildest dream would Josh Sitton have been released.

Plenty of teams will gladly pay Josh Sitton what he is fairly due .

Where can TAR and FEATHERS be purchased in Green Bay, Wis. ?

What is surprising is TeddyT is usually willing to keep the player and turn it into a draft pick when the player signs elsewhere next year. $6 mil for an extra 4th round pick ain't bad.

If we couldn't get anything for him now, then how would we get anything for him later? Am I missing something there? Feels like I am.

Had we kept him we could've traded him tonight after he made the team.

That's based on the premise that the news wouldn't have come out later, but I'm not sure I can get with that premise, especially with all the "insiders" on twitter these days, you know?

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (9h) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (9h) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (9h) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (9h) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (9h) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (9h) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (10h) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (10h) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (10h) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (10h) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol

Mucky Tundra (10h) : I'm rooting for the Lions to lose.

Mucky Tundra (10h) : God help me but I'm rooting for the Vikings to...Vikings to...Christ I can't say it

Zero2Cool (13h) : Owner ... love it

Zero2Cool (13h) : Mayo was the guy they groomed for HC and one of the reasons they let Bill go.

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Pats have the #4 pick, lots of cap space and Maye at QB; should fetch some attention

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Well that didn't take long; Jerod Mayo out as Patriots HC

Zero2Cool (14h) : I would expect it to be higher in favor of Eagles

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Thst line seems...generous

Zero2Cool (14h) : Eagles -3.5 over Packers in Wildcard Round

Mucky Tundra (15h) : Did it though? Pokes beat the Commanders on the road with Cooper Rush previously

Zero2Cool (21h) : That gives them their best chance

Mucky Tundra (5-Jan) : Cowboys starting Trey Lance at QB vs Commanders; GB vs Philly in the Wild Card incoming!

Mucky Tundra (4-Jan) : Stinks for Lloyd. Hoping he comes back strong for next year

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Packers placed Marshawn Lloyd on reserve non-football illness list

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
