I am still a little baffled why my name is on this thread when it's nerdmann's post that headlines it. 🤦

If we're thinking about the same play, he just got up and pointed down field signifying that he picked up a first down.

I thought the same thing. Put in a few weeks of consistent good performance before you start celebrating like that over one decent play. Preferably be ahead on the scoreboard too.

Was less than a week ago when people were jumping all over me when I said that Finley looked like he wasn't giving it his all. Chalk it up to effort or concentration or whatever, he's not getting it done. No point in benching him yet but he's digging his own grave with his value on the free agent market. Hopefully he doesn't dig ours in the playoffs. I'd be angrier at Finley if Driver and Jones hadn't dropped one each as well, but Finley dropped three (or was it four).

Going 16-0 means nothing unless you win it all. I wouldn't say that going 16-0 would mean nothing to me but I'd rather have one more superbowl than three 16-0 seasons.

Finley is still the biggest play maker on offense outside of Greg Jennings. He and Jennings are the only players on the offense that can beat coverage on their own. Everyone else benefits from the system, including Nelson.

I’m also annoyed that he doesn’t’ catch more of those balls, but I think he is just pressing too hard to be an elite player. I hope the Packers hold on to him, because at some point the game is going to come to him and he’ll have some break own performances. A lot of fans are forgetting how utterly dominant he looked at the beginning of last season before getting hurt. I think that guy still exists, he’s just fighting to get out right now.

I disagree with this. No one on offense had shown any emotion up until Finley beat the coverage, made an all-star adjustment on the ball and came down with the catch. The only player on offense who had any spark up until this moment was Grant (who I wish MM and AR had ridden a bit more) and I was glad to see him celebrate. Unfortunately the rest of the team didn’t seem to be paying attention.

I see a silver helmet with a blue star on it for Finley's future to be perfectly honest with you go.pack.go. Look for another 6-6 athletic junior tight drafted in the fourth round of the draft.

I'm still pretty pissed about the Quarless injury on a play the refs fucked up on!

I don't know what the hell is wrong with the guy. Is he playing scared? He was obviously better as a rookie. Last year, when Rodgers was forcing him balls, Finley was catching them all. Rodgers was literally throwing him open, and Finley was just looking sexy. (for lack of a better term)

That rapport is gone. Honestly, I think Rodgers and Finley have to do some 1-on-1 work. Or at least have Finley be a focal point in practice. Because there's something wrong. We all know Finley doesn't REALLY suck.

I have no clue, other than your post was the first moved/split for some reason.

Anyone more familiar with a "broken leg" know if it will have any long-term implications career-wise for Sherrod? I sure hope not, but a nasty leg break seems like it could be potentially career threatening. Someone tell me otherwise!

wpr (4h) : 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.

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

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
