There are aspects of Woodson's career off the field that is just as admirable as his play upon the field. Yes.. color me a Charles Woodson fan, regardless of the hue of his jersey.

I understand the business side of things, but this just plain sucks! He is my all time favorite. Time to go buy a "21" jersey.

That leaves Tramon Williams as the "old man" of the DB's,.

I'm not gonna count Jarret Bush, he has become the Special Teams Vet.

I'm just wondering who is going to step up and become a "leader" on and off the field for The Packers on the Defensive side.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

j/k Williams is.

Overall CM3 for all the defense.

In order to be a leader you have to be on the field. With all the sub packages and shifting around Matthews is one of the few who is out there for the majority of the snaps.

When healthy I would think Bishop shares the load for overall field leadership.

An all time great.

Hope he gets that all time pick six record.

As I said in another thread, I really have mixed feelings on this one.

Never was a fan of Woodson until he came to GB. But I really liked him, especially over the last few years. Epitomized class, thoughtfulness. I'm not much for player interviews, but Woodson was always worth listening to.

Two broken collarbones scared me more than anything. There was a play, I think in the SF playoff game this year, where he stayed down after a hit for awhile, and I thought, OMG, not the collarbone again!

Age part didn't though. I'd rather have his savvy back there for a couple years. It's not like his projected replacements really outplayed him. Hayward did, perhaps, but he wasn't playing CW's position, was he?

Gonna miss you, Sir Charles.

Your wine is still too expensive, though.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

I bet he signs with the Raiders.

Former team, former Packer as GM, they need a S, do they not?

I think it goes back to this old adage.. release them one year early instead of one year late.

Charles is right about up against the break point of being an impact player yet.... might be beyond it.. or just in front of it.

Packers statement on his release:

“We are grateful for all that Charles has given to the Green Bay Packers over the past seven years,” General Manager Ted Thompson said. “He has been an integral part of the Packers’ success and our Super Bowl title in 2010 would not have been possible without his contributions. A once-in-a-generation talent as a player, he is also a great leader and ambassador for the organization off the field. Charles will always be a member of the Packers family and we look forward to his eventual induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. We wish him and his family all the best.”

packerfanoutwest (2h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (2h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (3h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (5h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (5h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (5h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (5h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (5h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (5h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (5h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (5h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (6h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (7h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (7h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (7h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (7h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (7h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (8h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (8h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (8h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (9h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (9h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (9h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (9h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (10h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (10h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (11h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (11h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (12h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (12h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (12h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (12h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (12h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (12h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (12h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (12h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (12h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (12h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (12h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (12h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (12h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (12h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (12h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (12h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us
