I admire Matt's loyalty, but when you keep a guy who is consistently this bad, you make him go stand on the side, while someone else does his job for him. Maybe he'll learn something.

Then you shitcan him in the offseason. You don't actually allow him to continue embarrassing not only you, but the entire franchise.

This maybe where the youth of MLF works against him: since he's so young and relatively new in the league, he doesn't know enough people around the league so when he needs someone he can go get them. Even with that caveat, simply bumping up Drayton was always going to blow up in his face.

This was a front office deal.

The blocked kicks were "something we saw on film. We knew we could do that."

How about self scouting? Especially when you have such a joke of a unit.

Article on passing up on a real ST coach .

Given the chance to hire a high-end special teams coordinator, the Packers underpaid and paid the price.

Drayton is 1 of the lead coaches along with HC, OC and DC. I'm sure the NFL tracks that too. Other organizations watch this kind of thing. They even have Ruvall Martin as a Coaching Assistant (Minority Fellowship).

Martha Careful (8-May) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback

wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:

Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

beast (7-May) : My first name starts with R and my beer belly is quite voluptuous! Thank you for noticing 😏

Zero2Cool (7-May) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.

Zero2Cool (7-May) : And now some Packers blogger is like Doubs to Steelers makes sense!!!!

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans
