I hate injurys more than anyone, and Saine looked promising. But it could be worse. We should give Starks a chance as a 3rd down or sub back.

I think with this injury we'll see John Kuhn at Running back again. Which will help us on 3rd and short. In which we had some trouble coverting them this year.

edit: I think it's awesome that we keep getting guys with long hair and or dreads!😝

Hmm...:-k

I thought all our RBs were short yardage backs. We got Cedric Benson who gets 3.5 ypc, A Green who gets 3.8, Kuhn who gets 2.9, and Starks who gets 2.2.

That's pretty good for short-yardage. [sarcasm]

I'm just afraid that if Starks starts getting 10+ carries a game, he's going to get dinged up again. Yes, Green and white with Kuhn on third downs isn't the end of the world, but I sure miss Benson. Certainly glad that Green has exceeded my expectations, though.

If Starks can't handle 10+ carries a game we might as well find out now so he can be replaced. I think Green could do some damage if they could get him past the line of scrimmage. He showed some ability to make people miss along with some power.

But I just don't see it... other than the dreads by one side and short hair from the other...

Benson and Starks are physical runners who pound their way and grind it out... Green and Grant are the quick/speed backs that can try to grind but nether really have great power but can burn you if you give them too much room to work with.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:

Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

Zero2Cool (7-May) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.

Zero2Cool (7-May) : And now some Packers blogger is like Doubs to Steelers makes sense!!!!

Zero2Cool (7-May) : You saw me Tweet???

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (27-Apr) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something
