NFL.com (Carucci): #3 "Again: Brett who?"

ESPN.com: #4 "They've feasted on two winless teams. Now the Packers face the biggest game of the young season: A home matchup against Dallas that should establish early NFC supremacy."

CBS Sports: #4 "They're 2-0, but we'll know a lot more about them after next Sunday night's game with the Dallas Cowboys. This much we do know: Aaron Rodgers is for real."

Sports Central: #4 "I'm sure the Packers are a little resentful that the team is playing so well as a whole, and Aaron Rodgers is the only one getting any attention, but through two weeks, I'm not sure any NFL quarterback has been better."

Bleacher Report: #4 ""Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy smile big with Aaron Rodgers performances, but the defense needs to stop letting teams back into the game."

Wow... expectations are rising fast.

Well, that's consistency for you. A three and four fours. Thanks for passing those rankings along. I bet every one of those writers has the Cowboys ranked ahead of the Packers--as they should. They spanked the Browns and beat a very good Philly team.

Can't wait till Sunday night.

If we beat the Cows, expect to see us at #1 across the board.

At first I did not like Michael Silver, but now he is one of my favs. (and not merely because of that!)

Shocker.

With all due respect to the Packers, I can't imagine anyone actually having them ahead of the Cowboys. The Cowboys are loaded with talent that is proven.

The Packers may have talent, but it is not as proven, and I'd argue not as deep. The Cowboys are a scary team, if one of their players go down, they've got a back-up who'd be a starter on most other teams.

Actually, the only position I think the Packers clearly edge out Dallas is at WR. Even then, I'd question having the Pack as #1.

If the Packers play up to their potential (and get in a rhythm early and often) this will be one heck of a game.

I would put the Cowboys ahead of the Packers right now because they beat up on the Browns a lot more convincingly than the Packers beat up on the Lions, and I think the Eagles are better than the Vikings.

But it's close. I'll believe that the Cowboys' talent is "proven" when they actually win a playoff game.

wpr (10h) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (12h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (13h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
