Ron was in back to backers in his 9 years. RW wins. It was much harder to turn a losing franchise into a winner like Wolf did. He changed the culture of this franchise from Cleveland to Pittsburgh.

I'd love to see him out of retirement at age 76. If he was into it, I'd take him over Ted Thompson in a heartbeat...he would recognize we have the best QB to ever play the game and actually build a defense to win multiples. Ted Thompson will keep shopping at the dollar store and counting on the 2nd year jump that every single franchise has going for it.

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."

He said he should have done more to take advantage of having Brett Favre.
Hopefully Ted Thompson doesn't have the same regrets when he retires.

Yup...because he was a perfectionist...NEVER good enough. NEVER. With TT, it's ALWAYS good enough, he has Aaron.

No. Ted Thompson has already surpassed 9 seasons and didn't make it to back to back bowls. RW wins.

So it's not about winning, it's about getting there. Well Bills fans will be happy to hear the good news.

Speaking of Jimmy Graham, one thing I never got about that guy is why he's so mediocre at getting YAC. The guy is an absolute elite freak athlete with a top level QB who is one of the most accurate in the history of the game yet he's essentially a catch and fall type of receiver.

Wolf was in back to back SB's and should've had a 3rd straight if not for the terrible non Rice fumble call that cost us that win in SF. TT's team hasn't been back to back or even close to it.

They had one thing in common: a coach's son commits suicide late in the season [though Philbin's boy was later judged accidental]. Practice the week before Giants game was a mess and many players attended the funeral on Fri B4 Sunday's game. A sociopath may not be capable of producing empathy to understand how this can mess up a football player from focusing; but most of us either know or can understand what occurred on that team when the son of a close friend/business associate dies. But for this tragedy, GB would have squashed Giants and 49ers in Lambeau.

Then we were one Bosticide away from going to another; that'd be 3 in 5 years!

Of course we were decimated by injuries in 2012-13. In 2013 we took SF to the brink w/ Palmer and Datone Jones paying OLB 'cause there was no more and a slew of other injuries.
Ted Thompson has built 5 consecutive rosters that were capable of winning the SB. There's only one other team that sits in this stellar class: NE.

If God was the Packer GM he would have to change his name to Wolf or certain people would still harshly bad mouth him.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him
dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is
beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
