I like Hundley, and I HOPE they don't just let him languish inactive most of the season. I want to see him in some short yardage and goal line situations - MAYBE even occasionally a two-point try. I even want to see him tried as a TE with the capability for some kind of a trick play with him passing. However, I don't see him beating out Tolzien as the backup QB.

If the Packers are gonna go for two a lot, though - as I suspect a lot of teams will with the new rules, I'd rather they run their regular offense - Aaron Rodgers or maybe handing to Lacy, which stands a pretty good chance of picking up two yards (it is from the 2, right, for a two-pointer?)

They could even use Lacy as the FB and Starks/Montgomery as the HB. Except that Kuhn is just SO awesome as a FB, better keep him on the field!

Why not just use Aaron Rodgers? If anyones a specialist at getting the ball into the endzone it's him.

For instance, if you had him in place of Richard Rodgers, does the incremental benefit of having a better trick throw outweigh what you would lose from and ability to have Hundley block or be a receiving option instead of someone who is a dedicated tight end?
