Does Bigby suck?· Page 3

I like to look at the other side of the coin. Bigby has been making highlight reels with big hits and INTs. For him I say So What. He hasn't been part of a highlight reel of an opposing team burning him either. I am happy if he never gets shown in either aspect. As long as he is out their doing what he is suppose to do correctly. Bigby is not our all star, he is a role player safety.

But he 'created' a lot of hype afted his amazing games near the end of the 2007 seasons. People don't expect him to be a solid player, they expect him to be a ballhawk and hard hitter.

He has been much less of a liability in coverage than I thought he would be. I thought of him more like a 46 S/LB hybrid-like guy. Like said, he's just the weak link in a very strong chain, but that's really not saying much.

To me this seems like blaming him, for Hype, not created by him, but by us as fans. Bigby wasn't out saying anything about his performance or claiming what he is or isn't. He made plays when he had the chance, and since he was young and unproven, he had more chances. If he is doing his job, QBs are less likely to go after him now.

I for one can not think of a chance for him to lay somebody out. So I won't penalize him, saying he is bad, when I haven't seen him burnt or missing easy tackles.

Like I said, he has been really solid. He has just not been living up to the expectations people had of him after the 2007 season. It's not fair, and he didn't ask for it, but that's the way it is. Luckely, Ted Thompson doesn't care for that stuff (as any GM should).

To be honest with everyone i really only remember how many times i threw stuff at the tv because he was getting stupid late hit flags alot or PI flags more than anything. Oh of course i remember seeing his hair out of his helmet lol.

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

I've never been a Bigby fan, he seems to take far too many chances. He's also one of the slowest players - for his size - I've ever seen.

Everyone on The Packers pretty much sucks!!

I rmember in 2007 The pack got off to a 5-1 start and everyone was picking aprt the team as if they were1-5.

So untill everyone plays a perfect season, and The Packers go 19-0,
THEY ALL PRETTY MUCH SUCK!!!!

My new favoeite word.

SUCK SUCK SUCK

I've liked Bigby, but it's more so his approach to how he plays the game. All out.

Unfortunately that causes him some penalties and injures his teammates (see, Al Harris).

Most of Bigby's penalties and blown coverages occurred in the first half of the 2007 season. In the second half, he was outstanding. But the injury last year rendered him a non-factor. And so far this year, it's been more of the same.

Bigby may be one of those players who is not fast and/or talented enough to overcome a lingering injury. I remember how Antonio Freeman suddenly lost most of his effectiveness around the age of 30, not because of any particular injury, but because he lost a bit of his speed, and he didn't have a lot of speed to begin with.

Maybe that's what's happened with Bigby because of last year's injury. If that's the case, I hope he returns to full health soon. He should be there by now.

wpr (11h) : 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?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
