Robert Tonyan has as many TDs (5) in this young season as Jimmie Graham had in 2 years with the Packers. Has to make you wonder what would have happened if Big Bob saw more playing time last year.

Nelson would pick the other side, and Rodgers would throw it to him... Touch Down... Gute gave that up for Graham...

Now only that, Gute then purposely low balled Nelson (Gute later said it was Adams time to be #1 WR, and Gute seemed to believe Nelson being around might hurt that, probably because the Rodgers/Nelson connection)... but then Nelson already having more money than he'll ever spend wanted to sign it (James Jones called him crazy), but then Gute sat down and nicely pushed him away... when we could of resigned him, and released Cobb to save money...

This was a lose-lose all around... well until you realize MM partly lost his job, because they couldn't convert red zone trips into TDs because we lost the Rodgers to Nelson... and so therefore, so the Packers head coach job became open, in part to releasing Nelson. So we sorta got LaFleur (at least the year we did) because we lost Nelson... but still losing Nelson in that way still really sucks to me...

Watching Rodgers to Graham in the red zone, really hurt too... especially when that could had been Nelson...

Sorry for the rant...

No need to apologize, I think similar thoughts are going through a lot of people's heads. What if GB kept Nelson rather than signed Graham?

But then, as you say, maybe MM would still be here, rather than MLF. In retrospect, I think it has worked out pretty well.
