I didn't love what they did with line either. I have also come to realize the team was going to utilize Neal, Peppers, and Perry in a d - line -like role so any commentary on TT's handling of the d line needs to consider their impact.

IMO, Ted Thompson and his piss poor planning are to blame, and now we (the Packers) have to just live with it. Maybe, just maybe, Pennell will step up and fill the defensive hole in the middle. He has the size, I don't know if he has strength and skill though. 🙏

We should have promoted Jon Schneider, and let Ted out to pasture.

Can you imagine a team with Terence Murphy, Nick Collins, Johnathan Franklin, Jermicheal Finley, those are just the top four off the top of my head. Nick Collins, imo was a once a generation type talent at his position. How many GMs even come up with ONE of those guys?

Ted has to come up with TWO superstars, for every ONE that he gets to keep. Nab both Lacy and Franklin, get to keep Lacy. Nick Collins? BAM! Maybe Burnett and Dix can replace him. Raji's just the latest to be lost due to this injury bug. I don't mention Justin Harrell, because that was a calculated gamble with an injury history. (Although breaking his leg had nothing to do with the history.)

The LT position is another example. Ted drafted Bulaga, Sherrod and Bahktiari. Two of them have had significant setbacks with injuries.

If Mike ever actually figures this situation out as far as injuries, this team is gonna be INSANELY talented.

What some of you fans need is Ted Thompson gone, along with Mike McCarthy and the rest of his coaching staff.

4 or 5 years of revisiting the 4-12, 6-10, (hey but we beat The Bears), then you would be posting about the good old days when The Ted Thompson led Packers were always in contention to make the playoffs and were always in the "Super Bowl team" talks.

The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

I really hope it happens, would be fun to watch.

The same goes for TT...he's just wonderful because Rodgers keeps his regular season winning percentage way up there. When Ted Thompson is gone, perhaps, someone like you will open your eyes and see clearly as you did with Sherman.

I really hope it happens, would be fun to watch.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Mike Sherman was a good HC, he was a victim of The Packers upper management terrible and stupid decision to make him GM/HC.

They had no exit plan when Ron Wolf decided to leave.

Long before you ever graced this forum, my opinion was well known.

Bellicheck is the only guy in todays game that has been able to keep a competitive team together year after year with that dual role(Patriots might have a GM, but Bellicheck has complete control) and how many Super Bowls has he won since being caught cheating?

I hope it happens, I hope Ted decides to retire.

Unlike you, I don't think I know more than GM's and coaches.

Unlike you, I do know that a regular season is 16 games over 17 weeks and I'm not going to panic when the season doesn't start out great.

You just keep posting your bullshit and I will just keep.

😆 😆 😆 😆 😆

You know NOTHING about football, other than what you read, you don't have an opinion, other than quoting some source.

You are joke that keeps me laughing through the season.

PLEASE DON'T STOP!!!!!

4th and 26 and its aftermath told us all we needed to know about Mike Sherman. His teams could beat up the weak sisters but buckled every time we faced physical teamms. It is a lot like what we have going on now. Also, Mike Sherman drafted like he was one player away from the Super Bowl every years. When he was finally relieved of the GM duties, our roster was eerily as weak as what we see in Minnesota every year.

That's all he is fishing for.

Another thread for him to post his 100's of "Ted Thompson should be fired" posts.

Let the re-hashing begin.
