Garcia will bide his time, unless maybe KC wants to sign him(Cassell still hurt?), Garcia has proven he can step into a system and win ball games, if Aaron Rodgers would go down and JG is still available, then sign him.

The Packers system is not that much different from TB or Philly, he did fine in both places.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Not bad for discussion but he won't come to Green Bay because he wants a chance at a starting job thus the reason he went to Oakland.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I would love to have him on the team. If Aaron Rodgers went down, he could still lead us to a possible playoff run.

I'd take Garcia over Flynn also. I would even cut Flynn to open a spot for Garcia. He gives us our best chance to win if Rogers had to leave the game.
Plus I have always liked Garcia.

Okay honestly.... I think your a little crazy.... or just had a crazy spell or huge man love for Garcia or something....

A 39 year old QB who hasn't been in the Packers system, plus he's injury prone and hasn't play 14 games since 2002

over

A 24 year old QB who has been in the Packers system and has a heck lot of upside and could be the #2 for years.

If your taking cutting Flynn for Garcia I hope your planing on drafting a QB in next year's draft. Because getting rid of Flynn could mess up the #2 for years and if Rodger goes down then (you know when Garcia is retired than the Packers are in huge trouble... can't just think about one year)

Flynn won't want to stay a back up forever. He didn't come into the NFL to back up. We aren't grooming Flynn to take Rodgers spot. We are grooming him as trade bait for the future. Rogers is our future. there is no point keeping 2 young QB's on the staff that have futures as starters.(If Flynn does have a future as a starter.) Garcia can be a reliable back up for a few years.

I would prefer to keep Flynn as our #3 and continue to develop him. Then we trade him.

Future potential/trade bait are second priority to what your #2 can do for you now.

If Aaron Rodgers broke his arm today, who would you feel more comfortable with guiding the packers for the next 8 weeks, Garcia or Flynn?

The national football post has a rumour that we might bring in Joey Harrington. If that's the case I'd definitely rather have Garcia:

GREEN BAY Im hearing the Packers might make a move for Joey Harrington now that the Brian Brohm era has ended in Green Bay. Brohm never looked quick-minded or in rhythm the past two summers. Matt Flynn clearly out-played Brohm and looked like he had a much better command of the offense.

I was a big fan on Harrington. Used to trade him onto my Madden franchise and groom him into a great QB.

Sadly, that's not how it works in the NFL. I would've loved for him to turn into a great QB, but the teams he has played with have never allowed him to show his skills. I think that they might have screwed him up by now.

That said, I think that he can be very solid with the supporting cast that we're offering him. He's only played in shitholes and when he played with a bit less horrible team, he's showed off why he was a high pick. (2007 Atlanta didn't even look like 2008 Atlanta).

I would be totally good with Garcia. I think he's a gamer. I think that those that think Garcia got cut because he wanted to start...I think you are wrong and find that to be goofy thinking.

Those that think Garcia got cut because he was a threat to Russell--I think that it is ok to think that...I think that is what happened also, as strange a concept as that might be...goofy, even.

I think that IF the Pack wants to acquire Garcia, and I think they do...They have a tough decision to make. If they make a move for him prior to the 1st game, they will have to guarantee his salary for the entire year. If they wait until after the beginning of the year, they don't have to guarantee anything.

Will he still be available then?

Tough decision, that's what I think, and I am done with the whole thinking thing and going back to my regularly scheduled not thinking.

Err.. considering what we have right now, I'd be happy with either Garcia or Harrington as a backup.

beast (3h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (3h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (3h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (4h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (4h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (4h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (5h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (5h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (5h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (5h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (5h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (5h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (5h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (5h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (5h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (5h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (5h) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (6h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (6h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (6h) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (6h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (6h) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (6h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (6h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (6h) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half

Mucky Tundra (6h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire

Martha Careful (6h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs

Mucky Tundra (6h) : this game is over

Mucky Tundra (6h) : This might be the kill shot here

Mucky Tundra (6h) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : Philly DL has come to play

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : Ceoper DeJean with the INT scored...bad memories of draft night

Mucky Tundra (7h) : ok scratch that

Mucky Tundra (7h) : Game feels like last years Super Bowl: 49ers started off in control, moved the ball well but didn't have much of a lead to show for it

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : KC jumped and they call it on Eagles. WTF refs

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : If he was offside why did you let him pop the QB?

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : I like that Eagles are controlling time of possession so far.

Mucky Tundra (7h) : If the Eagles are going to win, this is how they do it: jump all over the Chiefs and don't let it turn into a close one

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : Bad throw created that penalty.

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : Amazed Philly got that hit to the helmet call.
