Good points also, Digga.

One more hit to AR (which we KNOW there will be LOTS more the one with the way the O-line is playing) and he could be gone for the year.

Hopefully not for the season but even if he has to leave the game a few times this year. MM will be less likely to put Flynn in there when Rodgers is hurting though he needs to sit because of the pain. Following Favre, you can bet that Rodgers will play with whatever pain he has to in order to show he is tough. I dont want to have Rodgers leave in a tie game in the 3rd quarter and get blown out because we have a rookie who is lost out there.

Let these rookies sit for a couple of years like Rodgers did. Have the balls to cut or trade Brohm if in fact Flynn is better. I just dont get the logic of having 2 rookie backup quarterbacks when you have a 1st year starter. Are we grooming rookies to replace Rodgers? Or are our backups in place to help us win a game or two(vet) if we need him to and (ONE) young guy to keep on the roster as an emergency qb who we are also trying to see if he can develop into a really good qb to replace the starter in case he doesnt pan out. Sorry for the run on sentence. Am I totally off base or what?

I agree with you completely. I can't remember a contending team ever going with a first year starter and rookie backups. That's typically something you see from a team rebuilding. In that regard, I don't think t.t. has positioned us well for the possibility of losing Rodgers to injury.

He rolled the dice. I think he's lucky Rodgers only has a sprain and might be able to play, but this should also be a wake up call. Hopefully someone gets in here sooner rather than later.

I think I start to believe that the Favregate is hunting Ted Thompson in unexpected ways.
Now everything he does seem to be wrong

- Trading Corey Williams
- Draftin Harrell
- Keeping only 4DTs in the roster
- Frost x Ryan swap

Powerful guy #4, powerful guy

The trade with Corey Williams was considered a smart move because everyone knew that Williams was going to command a LARGE salary that he did NOT deserve and he's proving that.

Harrell, I'm siding with BUST on this guy, but I say to give three years so I have to wait a third year on the bench before I can publicly say he's a bust.

Only four DTs? How many are normally kept? 4 DE and 5 DT?

I didn't quite get the move with Jon Ryan until I actually researched it and found out how NOT good he was doing, but its looking like Frost ... is NOT the answer.

WTH is the deal with all the injuries? The curse of Brett Favre?

"IronMan" wrote:



Actually, I think this might be the Madden curse. They tried to kill the curse by putting Brett on the cover after he retired...maybe the curse wasn't actually meant for the player but the team...or maybe because Brett was retired at the time, the curse transferred to the team uniform he was wearing.

Ya ya I know, sounds crazy as he*#,

I think it was Reggie who had the torn bicep in the playoff game when he said he was done, and then he said god healed him and he was in(played great too). I think Gilbert had a torn pectoral muscle that played with one year but i'm not sure.

dfosterf (2h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (2h) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (4h) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (4h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (4h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (4h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (4h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (4h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (4h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (4h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (4h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (4h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (4h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (4h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (5h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (6h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (6h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (6h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (22h) : 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.

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 (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.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
