A good read. I also think it is a good idea whenever someone is writing an article it should be proof read and spell checked.

While it seems petty, if one is to be taken with credibility, the written word should be correct gramatically.


regular posts, in my opinion, don't matter as much since we are usually typing fast and posting. However, when a post is riddled with errors it can become distracting.

Nice job on the article. keep it up!

Good article, Krazzy. My thoughts on Ted Thompson exactly. A great GM. I look foward to more articles, maybe a Jordy Nelson article 😃

First attempt. Pretty good job. I agree with your views on Thompson to this point. The big determining factor now for me is can he finish the job. Can he make the FA moves when needed and get the team to the SB.

While there are some mistakes writing, (rebuild vs rebuilt) all in all pretty good. I would suggest you elaborate a little more now and then. Ex. after your listing of moves for 2006,2007,2008 you could have added another sentence or two. The summary of the results was a little short.

Look forward to future writings.

Good article, but this I have a huge issue with:

Running game always is more important than a passing game due to the control of the clock and the game.



I'd take a good passing team over a good running team any day of the week. Quarterbacks are more important than RBs. If you look at this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Super_Bowl_champions 

And go down the list, you will see a lot of winners that won the SB without a dominant RB. You'll see a lot more teams with a dominant passing game but mediocre running game than vice versa. It's rare for a team to win it all with a lousy QB. The exception that immediately comes to mind of course is the Ravens in SB 35.

Let's look at the best RBs of recent days. Barry Sanders is in my opinion the best RB I've ever watched since I started following football in '76. As dominant as he was, he never saw the big game. Walter Payton is probably 2nd. Love the guy, but only saw the big game once and that's when they had the best D that I've ever seen. I've never seen such a dominant D. LT - great RB, HoF'er fo shizzle, but how many SBs? Emmitt Smith - excellent RB but he was on a dominating team.

Now top QBs - Montana, Young, Marino, Favre, Brady, and Manning. Marino never got that ring. He's the only one. Montana has 4. Young 1. Young would have had more had he played more years. Favre surprisingly only 1. Brady 3 and was VERY close to 4. Manning surprisingly only one considering he's been on such dominating teams.

Heck, the WCO has shown that you barely need a running game to have a dominant offense.

So I have to ask you a question - if you had the choice of Tom Brady or AP, which one do you choose (let's pretend Tom Brady is 100% healthy)? I'd take Brady. I love AP, but realistically, great QBs change games more than great RBs.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline
