---He turned a no name in Gary Barnidge to one of the top TE's in the game last season. This won't put us over any hump but I applaud the hire.

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."

Now if Ted can bring in a TE that has more speed than a Clydesdale in the Kentucky Derby this coach has a chance. Like the move but more coaching changes need to be done. Cough Cough {Tom Clements} Hack Hack {Winston Moss}

If Brian Angelichio is signed as the Packers new TE coach, the former Browns and Bucks coach will bring a track record of success with him. A change for the better, now a change at GM would truly be a blessing..

The fact that he didn't even get on the field, despite the obvious desperation in the passing game does not bode well. Then again, maybe they put that blame on the old TE coach.

Anyway, none of the rest of these guys can run.

Maybe we'll get Hunter Henry.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?
