The Giants don't match up against the Packers, we just choked & they got the credit and the win unfortunantly. This team is hungrier then ever, 15-1 and 1 and out will give the whole team a grudge.

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

A two-year contract is very good for Finley. His agent did a marvelous job of setting him up for a huge payday in two years. I don’t see how he won’t live up to his potential. His impact in this offense is obviously huge. Aaron Rodgers had his two best statistical seasons with Finley playing a majority of snaps. Very few teams can matchup against the Packers with him in the lineup. Unfortunately, the Giants were one of those teams. Nonetheless, this is a good deal for the Pack, but an even better deal for Finley assuming he remains healthy.

thread woulda been boring had we all just said "yay jmike!"

in the words of @adbrandt "Reading Finley responses reminds me of time as NFL team negotiator. Most are asking "What about Flynn?" On to the next."

Thread reflects that.

Back topic. Porky & Dakota nailed it. This is good for AR so it is good for the team. In 2 years they will certainly know a lot more about the rest of the TEs.

Some are talking like Finley had a terrible season. Drops-wise, yeah, big problems, but he did have 55 receptions for 767 yards and 8 touchdowns. I'll take those digits from the TE position every year. Erase the drops and cha-ching!

Finley just has one of those flamboyant personalities and it is easy to dog his ass when he screws up. Go back and watch the Arizona playoff game from a few years ago and you'll quickly realize why we are forking over 15M. The next cotract will be huge.

I'm pretty sure Finley would have about 1200 yards playing with favre in that west coast styled offense. Favre LOVED the TE as his hot read.
