I'm nervous about this game. The Falcons are built to play on turf. In Chicago, they had a difficult time utilizing their speed. It'll be different on their own turf.

I know it's early but my mind is on a couple of items.

First, who/how do you cover WR Julio Jones?

I take CB2 (or whomever is my best press coverage and physical CB) and lock him on Julio with my fastest Safety covering the top.

I take CB1 and lock him onto the biggest threat after Julio Jones.

I'm no more nervous about this game then I am about EVERY Packer game. On any given day, one team can beat another.
We got KILLED in the title game last year. But our team (defense especially) has changed a lot since then.
Had our D folded at the end of the Seattle game, like it seemed to do game after game last year, I'd be a lot more worried. But they held strong and didn't let Seattle get back into the game.

But I've suggested your same exact idea many times in the past.

Gunter was my 4th guess, after Pipkins, McCray and Patrick...

Well this is surprising DT Ricky Jean-Francois is released (my guess for WR Allison).

That leaves Dial, Hawkins, Pipkins

Quinton Dial DT Inactive I doubt it will be Dial. They just signed him and will want to give him 2-3 weeks minimum to see what they have. While it as been done before, it's pretty rare that you sign a player one week and release him the next. Even Knile Davis Stayed two weeks and had a conditional draft pick tied to him.
Josh Hawkins CB Inactive More than likely ranks higher than Pipkins.
Lenzy Pipkins CB Inactive Which leaves Pipkins as the most likely to be released.

Of course this is not a perfect way to decide. ... I can't say if they contributed on ST or not. I will stick with Pipkins.

Fan Shout

Zero2Cool (8h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (12h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (12h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (13h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (13h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (13h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (13h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (13h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (13h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (13h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (13h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (14h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (14h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (14h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (14h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (14h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16h) : 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?
