Nick looks better every game. Missing time with that injury seems to have made him realize how much he loves to play, and he is making the most of it.

I'd still take Hawk over Barnett. Call me crazy.

This season? I guess you could.

Over their careers? I don't see how. Maybe his rookie year, but I'm not even sure about that. Barnett has been such a solid player for so long, we're just being spoiled at the MLB position.

My opinion of Barnett has never deviated. He is a good solid linebacker, that's it. He is well compensated for his play and I find his samurai celebration after a routine tackle Mickey Mouse.

Barnett thinks he is superstar, yet when it comes time to make the All Pro tackle for loss on third down, he often whiffs on the play. If some of you want to make him into this superstar, that's fine, I'm just not buying it.

I am happy though and think the Packers are fortunate that his play is coming around as is the health of his knee.

Nick Barnett is better than AJ Hawk. If we had to trade one away, I'd much rather lose Hawk.

It is interesting to hear these comments from Woodson. After the cowboys game I was talking about Woodson being the leader of this team based on his performance but maybe it is Barnett based on his work ethic.

I think effective leadership on both sides of the ball by the players will go a long way to fixing our issue of inconsistency that we have seen over the past several weeks.

I know that I am not always rah rah Barnett.. but I have to give him props on his one stop for a loss.. he blew past the blocker and made a stick.. that is what I expect out of inside linebackers on a consistent basis.

But Hawk and he both got buried on Gore's on big run.. Barnett avoided contact and Hawk got handled by the fullback with ease... you get beat sometimes so I won't bang on their helmets too much. Solid players.

Gore is a dang good runner. Tough to bring down. I enjoy watching him.

I really enjoyed watching Barnett's solid tackling of Gore. I'm telling you Pack, he's underrated.

As far as comparing Hawk and Barnett, they both have their ups and downs and it showed in the San Fran game. Sometimes they were there and sometimes they weren't.

I think Barnett is becoming a better player coming off a bad injury. I was against him at the beginning of the year because he had lackluster play. He has been making some big plays here and there.

Just think, it could be worse. Packers fans are spoiled at the linebacker position so when one of them have a mediocre performance we get all pissy.

FYI - Nick Barnett is currently leading the Green Bay Packers with 62 total tackles. Hawk is in 2nd place with 50 and Woody is in 3rd.

Barnett is 4th on the team with 3 sacks. He's in 2nd place for LBs with 4 passes defensed (Matthews is leading our LB squad with 5).

He doesn't have an INT yet but that will hopefully change soon.
