No, the bottom line is this team with its current running game can put a shit ton of points on the board. Sure it could be better but it doesn't NEED to be.

Sticking with the OP it's cool and all to want someone better than Wells on the team but the simple fact is that there isn't anybody there currently. In my opinion it isn't really good business to try and replace somebody before you have their replacement.

Complaining about the running game is absurd. Last time I checked, we had the #19th ranked D and that's why we didn't go very far last year.

The year before when we won the SB, we had the #2 ranked D.

D wins championships. How many times do I have to prove this?

Our running game is fine. Despite what some people think, Wells is a decent run blocker. Genetics? Really? Yeah, the '97 Broncos' OL was too small to be any good and we wouldn't have to worry about them as our big DL will just run them right over.

I'd actually rate Wells pretty high. I want to keep him. The only arguments that I'd understand right now against Wells happen to do with $$$ but that's 🇹🇹's job. I have faith that 🇹🇹 can figure out how to make it work. He always has in the past. If anything, that's one of his top 3 strengths as a GM.

I want some extraordinarily big fat bastard for the position that is completely incapable of zone blocking, but so good at his job that the coaching staff is forced to abandon the ZBS.

I want a pony for my grand-daughter for Christmas, also.

I want the D fixed. I want to see 3 and outs. I want solid tackling. If we're in the top 5 in D next year, we'll get the 2nd title of this current dynasty and I'll consider getting your grand-daughter a pony for Christmas, depending on how my investments are doing.

The D isn't the biggest reason we lost 2 games. Dropped passes are. We led the league in dropped passes by a large margin.

We need to get our drops down from 8% to somewhere below average. 4% would be near average.

Our running backs are not the problem.

Only dropping an average number of passes would have given Rodgers 365 completions, 4843 yards, 47 TDs, and 4 INTs. Oh yeah, a higher rating and a couple more wins.

The Finley drop in the endzone during the KC game cost Rodgers a completion, a TD and a win.

The ball would sort of rise when it came to you and it was hard to see for the last 4 feet or so. Of course this was great if you were going for a strikeout, but it wasn't the easiest for me to catch.

Is Arodge throwing some sort of weird change up? I know receivers used to have problem with Favre at times, just as far as getting use to the "rocketball." But these guys have been with Arodge for awhile. They should be used to his velocity, if that's an issue. Hell, Cobb was probly the most sure handed one out there this year.

beast (21h) : Martha? 😋
Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.
dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.
beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you
wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

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
