from what I recall, he wasn't much into sports. he was more into... drinking. lol. Good guy though. I think he'd make a great special assistant to the traveling secretary.

I think it's more to do with Grant trying to stay low ... something he did not do too well last year. Staying low to the ground and getting his feet up to break tackles should help him improve on last year.


To be honest, it seems like MM is finally adjusting his running scheme to his players. McCarthy has stated publicly that he wants more runs up the middle (as opposed to outside runs) which should suit our current RB roster well. Grant has some size to him, Jackson has got that ability to fight for yardage, and Wynn looks like a powerful hitter.

I'm really excited about Wynn, and that's surprising because I've held Grant in high regard. I still think Grant can be a real good RB, but I would not be surprised if Wynn is getting extended playing time.


Oh, and I just hope MM soon settles on a starting 5, so that the backs and the starters can get some chemistry going. For the love of all that is right, get some consistency on the o-line!

Scary shit...just started seeing a gal who is a diehard Viking fan. Hey, she is so sweet otherwise, you just have to accept it!! LOL

First Vikesrule's son marries into the Packer nation.. and now we have to offset it with one of our own dating into the Viking pool...

What next.. a Packer Lions hookup. :lol:

BTW... just two years ago we had so many questions at RB.. this year it seems that we have such depth to choose from.. that is a telling sign of the growth of a team.. not just in the RB.. down the entire roster.

Did I tell you guys this news? I think I forgot. You all know Childress's daughter got married last month right? The dude she married lived directly across the hall from me in the dorm my freshman year. Justin Forbrook. weird.

Well hopefully he doesn't try and help up the father in law, unless he knows less about the game than Chilly does...

Want some humor.. they actually have a thread going on the PPO to re ink Chilly to a long term deal.. I hope Wilf is reading it and getting the checkbook out. :lol:

Only the homerist of homer Viking fans would want Chilly reupped. I am talking about guys who borrow their deep purple goggles from Ritchie Blackmore himself.

The funny thing about that is my step father who lives in Rodgers looks just like him, and really, really hates Chilly.

Love the Deep Purple reference, Dakota. The live version of "Child in Time" on made in Japan is guitar heaven.

Definitely an underrated band. Maybe because of all the lineup changes. I guess the really talented (Blackmore) are misunderstood and difficult to coexist with.

I've got my seven year old learning piano and guitar, and I hope for Christmas she can play me the "Smoke of the Water" riff.

    packerfanoutwest (7h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.
    Zero2Cool (7h) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

    wpr (7h) : now 3
    Zero2Cool (8h) : Who? What?
    beast (17h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
    Martha Careful (21h) : meh
    Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
    Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.
    Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast
    wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
    wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
    wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
    Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
    dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
    wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
    beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
    wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
    dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
    dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
    Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
