Hats off to Hawk.

That said, I like Barnett better. I don't think Nick gets the credit he deserves. But yes, Willits is better than Barnett. But then again, Willits is better than everyone, so that's not a dig on Barnett at all.

I bet you don't want Barnett being the guy taking on lead blocks. They may both be ILB now, but they are not the same type of player. 236 lbs vs 248. Which guy do you want doing the dirty work.

Given a little time, we may now have the best LBer corp for years to come. Barnett is just 28 and he is the old fart of the group (now that Kampy is gone)

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

I have a lot of trouble believing Barnett still weighs 236. He looks WAY bigger this year to me, like 245ish.

He plays waaaaay bigger than his size indicates.

Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar (and numbers are just numbers).

-off topic- but this reminds me of the whole draft BS; where sudden players are 2-3 inches taller and 20-30 pounds heavier. I remember everette browns stats seemed to differ everytime I looked at em.

glad we didnt grab him ...

Summary: We have 3 Pro-Bowl-quality LBs. That's an awesome problem to have.

The only thing I care about is performance. Barnett consistently gets 100+ tackles a year, except last year when he missed 7 games. This year, he has 4 sacks to go along with his tackles.

I actually prefer Nick's tackling, but Hawk is better in coverage. You'd think only if you saw their sizes that it would be the other way around.

Not me, Hawk looks bigger easily to me. He is much thicker in the lower body.

If Jones improves for the future, nobody will want to play our LBers.

He looked like a freigth train on that interception. Same horrible speed, as well.

I like Barnett more than Hawk. I know, Hawk is doing the dirty work etc., but when you see those two guys on that same blitz or see both of them pursuit a back, it's usually Barnett who's doing the better job.

And his stats tell that, as well.

dfosterf (10h) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (10h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (10h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (10h) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

dfosterf (11h) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (11h) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (11h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (12h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (12h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (14h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (14h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (15h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
