The last two games of 2011 regular season Greg Jennings was not on the field at all and the Packers scored 35 and 45 points, with the latter being without Aaron Rodgers! Clearly, the offense can survive without Greg Jennings.

With the facts now laid out, I'd still rather keep Jennings over... (oops dropped my keyboard) ... I'd rather keep Jennings over ... (fuck, dropped it again!) ... one more time ... I'd rather keep Jennings over Finley if it came down to one or the other.

Yesterday, I thought and posted under the Jennings thread after McGinn had wrote an article about trading him. The offense clearly sputters or fails without Jennings on the field. At this point, if anyone should be traded on the offense, it is Finley. It just might be too late to get anything of value for him because he can't catch, can't make the big play, and has a big mouth at some times. He demonstrates all three of those traits constantly.

Over him.

Okay, true. I guess I just think of the KC game last year where the offense looked just as bad as the defense that game and I become overly bitter about it because I drove all the way there for the game. I'll take back that comment, sort of. I do think the Packers offense fairs better without Finley rather than without Jennings...fair to say?

I just don't understand how Finley cannot catch the ball. Really looking back at all my excitement when his contract was extended. [palm]

For all you guys who want to get rid of Finley, who would you replace him with? I'd rather have Finley than some backup who can't even get open. Besides, he's a legitimate threat and takes coverage away from the WRs creating more options. Crabtree won't do that.
