He’s been a huge upgrade over JK Scott as a punter but Scott was a magician as a holder.


Totally stupid idea here, but I watched a video earlier where Pat McAfee suggested there are three different jobs of kickers, FGs, kickoffs and punting, which are all completely different, and he stated he doesn't believe one guy could do all three for a full season as their leg would wear out from all the practice you need to put in to be NFL level quality.

As for the totally stupid idea... can we bring JK Scott back for kickoffs and holding on the FG unit? If we sign him to the PS then we can even get two games out of him without releasing anyone off the 53 man roster (though 1 less on GameDay roster).


As for long snapper, why did we ever move on from Brett Goode? I'm still shocked and amazed (unless he was lying/exaggerating) but Crosby once suggested he's never seen Goode have a bad snap, even in practice. Though he's probably retired, but even the CFL has.long snappers, we can't find anyone decent?

Also, Jake Hanson has been a 3rd string Center most of his time and might be again if Bakhtiari is back and Jenkins moves back inside, but they should at minimum test Hanson to see if he could potentially do it... hell test all the Centers, hell yes all the players and see if anyone is half decent or rises to the challenge (most likely they won't, but quickly test them), what could it hurt?

And on a random sidenote, I looked at LS whom will be FAs this coming offseason... looked like 15 or more LS.

Also named were J.J. Jansen, Rick Lovato and Clark Harris, which are all former Packers and currently starting LS.

We actually traded Jansen away, but we had Brett Goode for a long time after. For a 7th for him.

Packers actually drafted Clark Harris as a TE. He didn't make it as a TE, but he stuck around on STs and TE long enough to improve his LS skills which were known about before his draft.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...
beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
