You have to have faith.

In faith, I do not mean the Lord. I mean in following the plan with faith that it will work.

I truly believe the Packers organization has faith in the road they have chosen to take, so this does not surprise me.

One thing I will add, and do not ask me why I feel this way, I just do. I think Harrell is going to have a great year.

Yes, there HAS to be SOMETHING in Harrell, he was a 16th overall draft pick for pete's sake!

I just keep wondering......with Kampman as a LB, who will we have at DE?

Jenkins... and... (brace yourself)... HARRELL.

Yes. That Harrell.

I wouldn't rule out Johnny Jolly either. I think he can play some end. I also think Thompson could look a Chris Canty whom is a free agent.

Cheesey you need to remember that DE is not a flashy position in the 3-4. Those guys aren't going to be getting the double digit sacks in this defense. It's the outside backers that should.

Yeah I really don't understand why everyone is saying Harrell with start.

3-4 DE is usually like a small 4-3 UT. They can also be normal and big size 4-3 UT and Jolly has been starting at UT for a while not.

IMO Jolly and Jenkins are going to be the starters unless harrell shows a lot in camp or Jolly's legal trouble.

OMG! What does he know?! None of our guys can play in a 3-4! We're doomed!

</fan over-reaction>

I think he's being coy, or more to the point, I don't think he's dumb enough to telegraph his plans and screw any leverage the organization might have.

I now cede the floor to the anti-Thompson brigade.

I was bout to say the same thing. This will twist the nipples of many Ted Thompson haters.

Anyways, if he WAS going to dip into free agency why would he just come out and say it? I agree with you.

What I foresee is that the DE's and NT will be one group and still be in a rotation like the DTs did. Pickett, Jolly, Jenkins, Harrell and hopefully a FA or early draft pick. Still using the rotation to keep them as fresh as possible and mixing up where they line up. Sometimes moving the NT to the outside, hopefully forcing the double to be from the guard/Tackle allowing the OLB to match up against a TE/FB/RB.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?

beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL

beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)

beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab

Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
