Good to hear that, Nerdman. I've always admired Lofton.

Seriously. My brother had a Terdell Middleton jersey. It was like a jinx. He had a Paul Coffman jersey. It's like every time he got a jersey, that dude would end up no longer on the team. LOL. So I gave him my James Lofton jersey. No WAY they get rid of Lofton, right?
Should have given him Lynn Dickey's jersey years before. LOL. Or an old Forrest Gregg jersey.

Hey, I liked Dickey. Give that guy an OL (his OL was way worse than our current one) and he would have been a good QB. Instead, he was getting thrashed around like David Carr.

Bummer about Lofton. I knew there had to be some strange magical reason Lofton left the Pack. Imagine if we had Brett Favre throwing to Sterling Sharpe and James Lofton (in Lofton's last 2 years, of which one he was in the Pro Bowl if I'm not mistaken).

My man Donald Driver

2010 will be seen as the beginning of the new Packers dynasty. 🇹🇹 🇲🇲 🇦🇷

I don't know. Sharpe had the record for single season receptions. I think he broke that record more than once. Dude was elite.

Yes he was elite. He may even get in. I still don't think he has enough to make the Hall. Only 1 player has made it with less than 10 seasons and that was TE Kellen Winslow.

But looking at his stats I am certain he will get votes.

Sterling is 50th in receptions (Only 14 are from his era or earlier have more. 9 of them are in the HOF.)
70th in yards. (32 are from his era or earlier. 13 in the Hall.)
40th in TD (23 from his era or earlier. 12 in the Hall.)

Here is the list for the other players who began their careers in the 80's.

Congrats to Driver. Truly the most underrated receiver of his era along with Derrick Mason.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
