Bush is coming on. This is a great time for a practice game. LeRoy Butler said Bush should follow Woody around and try to pick up tips on playing the ball. Well, seems like he might actually doing that. Who's to say? He made a pretty good play on that interception.
I look forward to this game as a test for Bush.
And btw, I put our top 4 WRs up against the Cards' top 3 any day. Throw in Finley too.

Bush tries hard, and I don't hate on him, but he's been in the league a few years now, and it is apparent that he is very limited as a player. He doesn't have good ball skills. He's not able to turn around and find the ball fast enough with his eyes and then react to it when it's coming at him. This is still as much of a problem as it was in 2007 during his brief stint as our nickel back.

Capers will need to move him around and hide him as best he can so that he is not exploited too much. I've been saying for a few weeks now that they should keep him near the line of scrimmage in zone coverage or have him cover a tight end. When he is in man coverage on wide receivers downfield, bad things will continue to happen.

Oooh. Great idea! Let them try to pick on #24 then. I wonder what kind of penalty the NFL would give for that?

As a Bush critic, I really hope he plays well. Its been 3 years with us, so I am not buying the idea that finally know he gets it. BUT, I do like Capers a lot and I do believe that Capers can put him in situations where he is most likely to succeed. I also understand that there aren't many options on the bench, so we will have to go forward with him. If I were the cardinals, I would not attack him on Sunday unless i needed the win. BTW, with Winfield being hurt in Minny, that will be an interesting situation for them. He looked bad a against the Bears......yes the Bears. After that game I would have taken Bush over Winfield. His ankle must really be bad but they have no other alternatives, and really, no ther good d-backs. They could be one and done in the playoffs.

beast (8h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (12h) : meh

Zero2Cool (16h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (16h) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (16h) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (20h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (20h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (22h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (23h) : 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

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

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.
