The Packers haven't re-signed Tauscher yet and might not do so until next week. There's probably no reason to do it this week during the team's bye because they aren't scheduled to practice at all this week and players were excused for the week today.

Um, why? Don't we have a few issues to fix. Like, uh, giving up 20. Sacks. In. 4. Games?

Really? Seriously?

C'mon now, they've had training camp, oh the OTA's and practice each week. That shit hasn't helped, why continue it? Just WING IT BABY!!

Campen should let the O-linemen come in on their own. Show that you're taking some initiative to keep our QB safe. Not only will it get up PR, but it might actually help.

Just go over the things that should be standard by now. Footwork, kick slide. Just the basics. This'd be a great time to do that.

Another strike against McCarthy. Time off IMO is an award for playing good and winning. When they play as bad as they have been, they should be running two a days again.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

This is about as stupid as boys fans bitchin bout romo going to cancun. This is standard procedure for players to get a week off. If anything it help them focus by getting away.
Real question is what are the coaches and front office doing on this bye week hopefully they are hard at crunchiing tape and figuring out what the hell is up.

I am therefor I think.

It's not standard. Many teams are allowed one or two days off, that's it. Holmgren I remember if we lost we'd be practicing the whole week as if it was a normal game week. If we won and he was in a good mood, he'd let them have the week off.

They got cut loose today and would likely have to be back monday right for treatments so 4 days off

I am therefor I think.

They started watching film today so they're not just sitting around idly. It just means they have until next week for actual practice, which in my opinion is kind of wasting the extra time you're afforded but whatever.

This doesn't make sense to me either. A day or two off to heal any nagging injuries, sure.. but the entire week? We need to get some work in.

Martha Careful (2h) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.

Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : The method for measuring first downs in the NFL will switch from chain gangs to camera-based technology in 2025, the league announced.

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : A big step in the right direction. Just put in the college system is very very good.

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : NFL has passed a rule that allows both teams to possess the ball in OT during the regular season

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : Touchbacks on kickoffs will now bring the ball to the 35-yard line.

beast (31-Mar) : It might of gotten more popular recently, but braiding hair (even men) in certain cultures goes back for centuries.

Martha Careful (30-Mar) : Is men braiding their hair a new style thing? Watching the NCAA men's tournament many players have done

Zero2Cool (29-Mar) : Ha. Well, it'd be nice for folks to reset their own password. Via validated email 😏

beast (29-Mar) : Monopoly was supposed to be an educational game, that show how evil capitalism was and how we should avoid it

earthquake (27-Mar) : Nothing eventful happened, other than it being clear that he was a bengals fan

earthquake (27-Mar) : And we went and hung out with him one afternoon, I must have been 9 or so

earthquake (27-Mar) : That’s wild, when I was a kid my friend lived in the same apartment complex in De Pere
