So thankful that Ted and Mike and Dom are in charge than so many of the Posters here and voices you hear on the radio. I don't feel like going back to the Packers of the 70's I grew up with.

Brilliant. Reason is completely lost on you.

Since I highly doubt Teddy is going to stumble across a third straight Hall of Fame quarterback, he has the Packers on track to be a 70's team once again.
I'm fine with keeping Mike and Dom but Thompson really needs to go before it's too late for us to win another Lombardi
With Aaron Rodgers..

(1) Ted knows football, he understands what it takes to play an NFL position. (2) He can look at tape and relate it to a player's ability to play a position. (3) He can apply this knowledge to the fact that a team only has X dollars to spend and spending on one position or one year prevents the spending on other positions or other years.

Not knowing makes you a fan. But, your stone-cold refusal to even try to understand football makes you the dumbest self proclaimed expert loud mouth on the internet today in all of sports.

You cant understand football or recognizing talent, so all you have to base your opinions on is stats. EVERYTHING you know comes from stats. Adams is a perfect example: his height weight speed stats are pedestrian, his receiving stats horrible; ergo, you conclude he'll get cut. But, you had a chance to learn, you trashed one of his best days when he had 21 targets and 10 catches. So I broke down the 11 missed targets for you one by one. I educated you on his ability to separate, run routes and challenge for the ball, I educated you on the difficulty in GB's system for a 2nd yr WR to get on the same page as Rodgers; but you refused to learn...REFUSED.

Jordy! You said he's 31 and wont recover from ACL; obviously some stupid stat says so. This is not a 31 YO WR, it is JORDY EFFING NELSON! He not only was great this year, he played great two weeks removed from 2 broken ribs. Did you see Rodgers choke up in his PC about Jordy's performance? Rodgers saw 1st hand what a stud Jordy is; saw him work during the week, heard him gasping for air while wincing in pain the huddle. I wish someone would ask about that. If we won, Jordy's play would have gone down in Packer Lore. Now Jordy's heroism might be lost because the entire GB press corp is so negative and has no stomach for an important feel good story.

But, you fiercely disregarded good information on Jordy and Adams and ferociously clung to your ignorance while expressing idiotic worthless stats to support your fan-babble. Yet you arrogantly profess to be more expert than Ted. Surely, after looking like a total dipshit about cutting Jordy and Adams you'd try to learn what Ted does. No way, Smokey's is right!

Note: Unless you respond relevantly and honestly instead of with your typical obligatory troll replies, which will do everything but, and have you finagling argument through "moving the goalpost," ad hominems, strawmen, red hearings, etc, your reply will be ignored]

When you watch Adams tell me exactly what you are looking for? You say GMing is child's play, impress me! Better yet, take one play...any play and break down for me what Adams did right and/or wrong? Tell me where he is at tin the progression; etc. I know Ted would do this for me!

If Adams was too slow last year are you saying this year he got faster or that he should still be cut?

You concluded that Adams was the worst receiver in football. How did you learn this just by watching "this team"?

When you watch, how can you tell how fast a guy is playing? Do you have a stop watch and you time various players as to how fast they he exact same route if its 5 yard in or 10 yard out or a slant? You do know that when WRs run their routes they dont run full out all the time, they vary their speed to set up the DB, time their break for the progression, right? You understand the difference between straight line speed and quickness, how do you measure the two?

And if you see say Adams run down from behind by a DB and you think that means Adams is slow, isn't that dependent on who's chasing him? Getting chased down by Darrell Green is not the same as being chased down by Laderius, right? So how do you determine the speed of these DBs, do you watch hours of tape on each one to determine if they are fast or just go by some website that tells you what straight-line 40 they ran at a college pro day without pads or fighting through or avoiding blocks.

Again none of your blathering. I dont want your incessant psychobabble. Just talk football! Do an evaluation like you see on the different websites for drafted players. Show me you can evaluate Adams even as good as any draftnik would.
