I think I messed up his name, but after watching this, I kinda like him. Good first impression. Let's see it translate it on the field.

I found his comment "if they know what you are in pre-snap, you are in trouble..." to be exceptionally welcome and spot on. Last year is was very very easy to read what we were in pre-snap...and the results showed it.

I am very optimistic about his approach.

So I'm now trying to re-train myself since I have been pronouncing it Pet-teen.😲

Playing devil's advocate-- I also hate it. I hate it because some of the players that are already on the roster have shown the inability to run any type of complex scheme. Honestly, if you cannot grasp an NFL playbook, you shouldn't be on a 53.

This sounds complex. Pettine assured everyone it is not.

Excited to see what he can do with this defense and whatever Gutey adds. He wants to have a great defense and he is determined to win. Breath of fresh air compared to hearing Dom talk in his later years with the Packers...

True, Yerko. These guys are college graduates. If they don't have the smarts to pick up the defense, then how did they graduate from college?
If you want the big bucks, you have to earn them on the field.
Hopefully our new D leader can get the most out of the players.

thats why they give the wonderlic. you cant hide stupid.
NE likes veterans as generally they have the brains to ACT vs REACT.
We need to measure and judge quick adaptive thinking ability, in addition to 40 yard dash and underwear drill time. Dumb players just kill you.
I fear we have quite a few.

dfosterf (1h) : Feelin' pfowish can't find the sun. No big deal, will drag a laptop out when the time comes
Zero2Cool (2h) : if you're on mobile, open the menu and its the "sun" icon
dfosterf (2h) : Can't find the toggle, lol
dfosterf (2h) : I can find that the Microsoft lady rep for Titletown Tech is the philanthropy boss for the entire Microsoft corporation, but. .
Zero2Cool (2h) : There's a toggle for light/dark theme. Super easy.
dfosterf (2h) : The white background beta was hard to read, especially the quotes
dfosterf (2h) : Hopefully the color scheme remains the same
dfosterf (3h) : *Friday*
dfosterf (3h) : 100 million would be 539 million as of Fridsy
dfosterf (3h) : Heck, they could have taken a hundred milliion and invested in DAVE inc. last year (semi random, humor, but real)
dfosterf (3h) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from
dfosterf (3h) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy
Zero2Cool (3h) : New site coming along nicely. The editor is better than what we have here. Oh yeah!
dfosterf (3h) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40
dfosterf (3h) : The woke reference has to do with the makeup and oftentimes objectives of the companies they invested in
packerfanoutwest (3h) : beer and brats woke? say whom?
beast (3h) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...
beast (3h) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based
beast (3h) : And if everyone has heard of them, then it it probably has less growth potential and less community based
beast (3h) : Well isn't the investing person supposed to invest the money?
dfosterf (4h) : I swear if I were to discover that one of them has invented a virtue signalling transmitter I will not be surprised, lol

dfosterf (4h) : -Not saying woke, but should- borderline philanthopist venture capital excercise
dfosterf (4h) : Well for one, they are pouring resources into Title Town Tech. Investing beer, brat, hot dog, ticket money into what is pretty much...
beast (10h) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...
dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.
packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off
