Sure he's doing well now. Let's wait and see what happens in the playoffs when he tries running a KR from the back of the end zone or fumbles a punt inside his own 20 yard line.

Seems like it was a mistake getting rid of him. He looked great today and he burned us last week.it would be nice to have a good guy returning kicks for us.

Unfortunately, you never know what you're gonna get from young players. They could develop at any moment, or never work out at all. I went to high school with a kid named Stevie Brown who played Safety and got drafted by the Raiders. He struggled, was cut and signed by the Colts. He got more playing time, continued to struggle, was cut and was signed by the Giants. Suddenly last year he broke out, had a huge year, and was named starter. This year he is making $2 million dollars on IR after tearing his ACL. Football can be a guessing game sometimes.

Some guys need to hit bottom before things click. OT Breno Giacomini is another one, got better after being cut. He got better after being cut, the more power run game helped him fit in with the Seahawks, but also his pass blocking got better as well.

Though someone needs to look into why Ross couldn't figure it out while with the Packers and is with the Lions in the same season.

I'll question cutting him if and when this turns out to not be a flash in the pan. He hadn't done shit for them prior to last week

I don't think there is a Packer fan anywhere who wasn't relieved when we cut Ross. If you claim other wise I say you are full of shit. You wanted him gone and you know it. The only way you can say now that you didn't is because you know we are all too damned lazy to go back and look it up or you were smart enough not to put your relief on record. Now that the guy has had a few good games its safe for you to say we should have kept him. and you knew letting him go was a bad idea.

Problem is he was shaky. A head case. He could melt down at any time, and did so when the pressure was on.

Fan Shout

beast (10m) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (1h) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (1h) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (1h) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (1h) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (1h) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (1h) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (1h) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2h) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2h) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2h) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2h) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (3h) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (3h) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (7h) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (12h) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (12h) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (19h) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (19h) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (22h) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (23h) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over

packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor

Mucky Tundra (29-Dec) : Colts-Giants now a tight one
