We played Man coverage far more than Zone. Gunter was pretty much in Man coverage against OBJ in the Giants game, Dez in the Dallas Game and Julio in the Atlanta game. Ha-Ha and Burnett as well as LBers were usually in zones, nickel and dime backs varied between playing zone and man when they were on the field.

I find it funny that when our WR get open it is because of how good they are, when other WR do it against us it is because how bad our guys are.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

We need some veteran help on defense. And not some "over the hill" guys. Some REAL playmakers. The draft gets you unproven youngsters, that usually take at least a few years to develope. We need proven leadership NOW.
Our O can score points, but our D can't stop any really good teams.
Ted needs to "get er done" RIGHT NOW, or we will just see more of the "same old same old" garbage.
Brady had been to SEVEN Super Bowls since he came into the league in 2001.
We have had 25 years of HOF QB's, and have only 3 SB apperances. That's wasted talent. And it has to be on the heads of the GM and hos underlings.

The positive side - he is familiar with Dom's defense. Also might consider a smaller contract after being cut (from Cleveland of all places.) He was a solid corner when he played in GB, maybe he has a few good years left in him. I can't imagine him being any worse than the rest of our corners not named Shields.

He might of been able to complete with Randall for a starting spot at the end of the season, even if he has declined.

Theres a reason we let Tramon walk away in the first place. Him getting two years older makes him even less appealing. If you are looking for a free agent corner, go for someone like Gilmore or Logan Ryan.

The Packers should do whatever they can to draft Dalvin Cook this year. If we have to give up picks to trade up, I'm all for it. He can step in day one and be the game changer that this team has been missing for years. I'm tired of accumulating all these picks that turn out to be projects.

My first thought on Tramon when I saw this was no way, Ted released him for a reason.

Cost might have been the main reason.

Tramon switched to safety this past season, missed quite a few games due to injury.

Wouldn't hurt to invite him to camp.
Get him in at Vet minimum, you never know he might surprise everyone and still have something left.

Sounds like Shields will be gone, Tramon could be that veteran leader to help all these young guys out.

Never say Never....Right James Jones?

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

But if Shileds is gone, then the Packers could use another good vet CB in case Randall and Rollins aren't able to have a bounce back year like Nelson and Adams did at WR.

Hey all
I dont think the packers are that far off to be honest.

We neex areas in which to retool (cb's, pass rushers) but i think the outlook looks positive for next year.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
