This is one the most ignorant pieces I've read in long time. The Packers are notorious for promoting from within with their draft and develop approach. And there gonna try and twist this into their agenda?? BTW I loved how angry he got.

Packers coach Mike McCarthy grew visibly angry today when a reporter asked if Green Bay would consider signing free agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick. McCarthy said that with Aaron Rodgers injured, the Packers were confident in Brett Hundley as the new starter and Joe Callahan as the backup. When a reporter then asked, "Is there any [more]

i Don’t know if there is any history with the reporter but reading the article he appears to be a jag off. Trying to make this into the kneeling issue.

Will these reporters ever Get it into heir heads that Kaepernick was not that much of a QB he had some success with the Zone read but was an innacurate passer.

I’d not allow him in anymore.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Kap reminds me a bit of Kordell Stewart who flashed and was a challenge to stop because of his running ability for a period of time. Eventually the league caught on and he didn't have the accuracy to be a regular drop back qb.

Kap would be an option to run the pistol, but this team is nowhere near that desperate, yet.

Rodney of Packer Update suggested a trade for Tolzien if (when?) Hundley goes down, not sure when the trade deadline is tho.

Anyone talking about a trade for a QB is basically clueless. Now if we had a top 10 defense (in scoring, you know, the ranking that matters) that could get teams off the field on 3rd down ... THEN maybe ya got something.

I still think Hundley can get it done. It will take them a few games to get him calibrated within the offense, but I still like our chances... IF we can be consistent and not self-shit.

While I generally take the side of the players and believe Kaepernick is still talented enough to be a backup on alot of rosters, the Packers are not going to touch him. Hundley is their qb they'll either save the season with him or not at all.

What I don't get is the desire by people outside the organization to bring a QB in this far into the season. It's not like baseball or basketball where you can pick out a layer and more times than not he will fit into the team. The plays in football are a little more complicated. Communication is ore necessary. It's not that easy to walk in off the street and start the next game. And play well.

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (30-Apr) : The Packers re-signed three exclusive rights free agents WR Melton, P Whelan and RB Wilson.

Martha Careful (28-Apr) : RIP Packer Safety Tim Brown

beast (27-Apr) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.

beast (27-Apr) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot

beast (27-Apr) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : He's not that great, but final piece of the script.\
