Nice write up on Peprah's season so far.

I must admit I'm feeling pretty good about this group.

Collins is pro bowl.
Burnett is ascending and should be better in 2011.
Peprah has shown his worth filling in as a starting job this year.
Bigby has starting experience. Ted Thompson traded a precious pick for Anthony Smith who started for the Jags this year.

And all these guys can and do play on special teams.

If we keep them all I don't see it being a need area come next year and the draft.

Safeties are solid, and if Tramon and Woodson can stay healthy next year, and Bush continues to grow into the player we want him to be, we're sitting good.

I wonder if Woodson will move to safety at some point in the future. He seems to be doing just fine at the moment in his current role. He's part corner, part linebacker. He can cover the sideline, track tight ends over the middle, blitz and is probably our best tackler.

It must be great for Dom to have a guy like him.

Overall I like the group too. I think they are young and improving except for maybe Collins and Woodson who are experienced and have already arrived.

The only one I really don't expect anything out of is Bigby. I think he was impressive for a run of late season and playoff games in 2007 but has shown nothing since. What have you done for me lately I guess.

I'm guessing no... the Packers already have two FS in Collins and Burnett.

And honestly I think the defense has gotten better since Barnett and Burnett went down... as their replacements Bishop and Peprah added more physical play which this defensive needed.

Don't get me wrong I want the healthy players back and healthy but this team needs to be more physical than it was.

Honestly is Barnett physical enough for the 3-4 defense? I'm not sure...

And Burnett looked more like a FS than a SS.

Good points, beast. Bishop and Peprah have both been upgrades. Tramon Williams has also been an upgrade over Al Harris. The Packers' secondary is one of the best in the league, and I never thought I would say that because I'm a big Al Harris fan. Sam Shields has been big-time as well.

The depth of the secondary has been unexpected after what happened at the end of last year. It would be a real plus for either Lee or Underwood to step up now, so we will truly have solid depth at CB.

beast (8h) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (8h) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (18h) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (18h) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (20h) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (21h) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22h) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
Zero2Cool (22h) : Thank you
wpr (22h) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
wpr (22h) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
Zero2Cool (22h) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22h) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22h) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (23h) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
Zero2Cool (23h) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.
Martha Careful (23h) : just kidding...it was down
Martha Careful (23h) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...
beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.
