Story of the night for me was Hawkins stepping up at CB.

In just the first half, Hawkins had a team-high five tackles and three pass break-ups, two of them on fades into the end zone. The coaches wanted to take a good look at the speedy Hawkins this week and after a really lousy practice on Wednesday, he got his act together.

I think he got lucky in the end zone with the QB Kirk Cousins pass to TE Vernon Davis being in the perfect spot for him to knock away after Davis beat him deep... but Davis has done that to a lot of people. Other than that a great night by him

Shields used to bait QBs like that, learned it from Woody. Got an INT doing that against the Cowboys in that Matt Flynn game the year Aaron broke his collarbone.

I was impressed with Hawkins last night.
I think if he continues on that trajectory I think he has a big future for the Green Bay Packers.
The only thing that caused me to be uneasy last night was the horrendous play of Spriggs.

jdlax (11h) : I can't believe one of my teams went out and wablammo just up and acquired one of the best players in the world overnight

dfosterf (15h) : I do very much appreciate when Beast and others pick up my slack 😊

dfosterf (15h) : I accept Beast's admonishment regarding my failure to link stuff I reference. I simply never learned to link from my cell phone.

beast (16h) : That's not what your she said 😌, she said keep going 😏

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Anything over 4 hours means he needs to get to the hospital

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (21h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (21h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

wpr (28-Aug) : Me do-ed it gooderly,

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Bahah, I was like WTF why isn't anyone posting on PP.com ... oops no one has permissions

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

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.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

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

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

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

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
