Let's get Tony Gonzalez so Aaron can throw to him

Let's get Tony Gonzalez in here.

He's still effective, he would make a match up nightmare given
the receivers we have as well. Aaron can rely on Tony as his
failsafe down the middle of the field.

We could trade Brohm, and a conditional pick and the Chiefs would
jump at it. Heck..they might even want to throw in Brody Croyle
or Thigpen back at us

I don't think we can get anything for Brohm. Let's not forget, he's officially our #3.

I still think Donald Lee is underrated by us Packers fans and Finley's developing fast. I don't think TE is a need. If anything, we need to utilize our TEs more like we did in '07. We ought to take our '08 playbook and throw it out the window, then go back to our '07 playbook, a playbook that kept our O on the field and let our D rest. It was also more aggressive, which I liked way more.

I agree. I hope McCarthy is going to use the 07 playbook more and
loosen the reins on Aaron and let him be aggressive.

I think the 08 playbook was to help a young QB, but they should be okay now to really challenge defense..

Ted Thompson would never trade for Tony Gonzales.

That is correct, since the Chiefs owner stated Tony isn't going anywhere...

But I would love to trade for Brian Waters off that line.. he wants out as well and Hunt basically hinted that they would move him..

Ted Thompson will not trade for any current NFL Player. He is going to go with the players he has selected in the draft. Finley will have a chance to showcase his talents this season.

Except for that one time that an offer was on the table that nearly went through.

Whoops.

I agree about Finley. He has tons of potential and I think he'll be a pretty good TE in a year or two. Donald Lee will suffice till that point. I guess I'm one of the guys who underrates him.

Tony would make our passing game pretty feared, but still, he is 33 year olds. You have to be sure you can make a run at a championship if you give up something for a guy like that.

Brohm going there, I wouldn't mind that much. Thigpen deserves to start somewhere and Croyle would hardly be an upgrade over Flynn, I think.

The deal was done and KC's GM came back at the last minute and upted the price (draft pick) AFTER he had already agreed to the deal.

It's not TT's doing that this guys not already a Packer.

Martha Careful (20h) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (20h) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (23h) : Rude!

beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh
