I agree. I was screaming at the TV "Throw a friggin' PASS!" We weren't gaining anything on runs when deep in our own end, so why not open it up?

It all turned out well though. But if we do that crap against the Cows, they will eat us up alive.

The first half was everything you expect from an the NFC title runnerup. Rodgers was accurate and amazing, the receivers stepped up and the defense was dominant.

The team that showed up in the second half was not the same Green Bay Packers. Thankfully, the defense stepped up at key moments and pulled this one from the clutches of defeat.

MM and Co. are going to have to refocus on the basics if they want to beat Dallas. This was a good victory, but bittersweet in a way.

This team has some great potential, but what type of potential is it? Potential for greatness or potential for disaster? Hard to tell, but thankfully week two is in the books, Green Bay is 2-0 and the Lions, Bears and Vikings all lost.

That's a good weekend (especially since the Badgers won and Michigan and Ohio State lost), no matter how you slice it.

Yeah. You guys are right. MM needs to put teams away when we have the lead. Grant wasn't on and should have been pulled early. Jackson was looking much better, and Lumpkin should have had a few more carries.

But we got to throw on 1st down sometimes. I can't stand it when we get all conservative.

Anyone know what happened to Bigby? I didnt see him at all in the second half? Did he go out with an injury or because of the bicep injury from last week?

We need to run the ball better, and although it wasn't as bad as last week, we still had too many dumb penalties on the o-line.

The potential is definitely there, but MM needs to decide if he's going to go on the attack and play to win, or if once we're up he's going to be conservative and just play to not lose. Playing it conservative has blown up in our face two weeks in a row, and luckily the D bailed us out. Running on 2nd and long everytime isn't going to cut it.

I'm so tired of the whole 'run the ball with the guy into the opposing team and see what happens". Cripes.

And where the hell is Grant? Is his hammy that bad? Rusty from missing camp? Don't tell me he developed a case of the Shaun Alexander syndrome. Running backs usually get it once they get a big pay day. Symptoms include not running as hard as you used to when you were broke and just plain not showing up.

I say they should choose to attack Rodgers can handle it!

Martha Careful (43m) : RIP Junior Bridgeman. An excellent businessman and NBA er

Zero2Cool (2h) : It's better to have $17m to use on players who will be on the field. That's why trade/release is talked

Zero2Cool (2h) : post june is $7m cap hit with $17m saving

Zero2Cool (2h) : oops meant $10m cap hit

Zero2Cool (2h) : And pre june is $10m savings

Zero2Cool (2h) : Can't make him play.

dhazer (2h) : I am curious why the big need to release Jaire, we have 29 million cap space we arent spending and would only gain $6 million/ make him play

Zero2Cool (3h) : Joey Bosa signed with Bills?

dfosterf (4h) : What they are offering is a left over case of Leinies from the Chippewa Falls plant

Zero2Cool (4h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 gets you Jaire and our 3rd

Zero2Cool (4h) : they give us those five, or even first four, they can have Jaire.

Zero2Cool (4h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 and 136 are only ones worth having of theirs.

dfosterf (4h) : What they don't have is cap space, at least presently at 5.6 mil

dfosterf (4h) : Poor bastards only have 11

Zero2Cool (4h) : Ravens ain't got crap for picks.

Zero2Cool (4h) : Aaron Rodgers is choosing between Steelers and Giants. The Vikings are officially out on him, per RapSheet

dfosterf (5h) : Current cap space 29.6 million.

dfosterf (5h) : Hobbs 2025 cap hit just under 6 million. Banks 2025 cap hit just over 9 million

Mucky Tundra (11h) : beast, this is news to me! Tell me more about these, "draft picks." They seem mighty mysterious! 😉

beast (13h) : Yes, the Ravens have draft picks

dfosterf (14h) : Good luck to him.

Zero2Cool (15h) : Eric Stokes signs with Raiders

Martha Careful (16h) : Tyler Linderbaum C

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Cap space?

Zero2Cool (17h) : Do Ravens have anything we'd even entertain to have?

Mucky Tundra (19h) : I've seen trade ideas of Jaire going to the Ravens all offseason

beast (20h) : A probably false rumor is suggesting CB Jaire Alexander is being traded to the Ravens, again probably false

beast (20h) : Commanders might have a dominant offense the next 3 years at least

Zero2Cool (22h) : San Francisco 49ers announced they have released DL Leonard Floyd.

Mucky Tundra (23h) : Er getting traded twice like that

Mucky Tundra (23h) : Huh, LT Laremy Tunsil traded from Houston to Washington. Never heard of a top OT getting traded in his career like that

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Minnesota Vikings cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. is returning on a three-year, $66 million deal

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : Damn

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Saints are re-signing DE Chase Young to a three-year, $51 million deal worth up to $57 million.

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : 49ers releasing FB Juszcyk any interest?

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : digits of four

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : four digits

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Eh, don't think so. better to split

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : on new site, would Fan Shout and GameDay Chat show same messages?

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : The Hall of Fame stuff probably came from a scout as Zero said; at this point though it's hard to see them moving ZT from RT

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : Regarding ZT at C, Gute had said he felt C was ZTs best position after he was drafted.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Based on how it was worded at the time, probably scout.

beast (10-Mar) : I don't think the media person ever told the public the source, but Gute or LaFleur did say they thought Tom has earned his spot at OT

beast (10-Mar) : I think it was supposedly unnamed Packers source

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Was that Gute or Lefleur or someone else?

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Zach Tom could be a really good guard, an all pro tackle, but probably be a HOF Center. Who said that?

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : It's March 10th. I don't think anything is done.

Martha Careful (10-Mar) : if we think CB is done, we have a poor roster

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : CB and OG in FA, narrows down the top of the draft board a little
