Sounds like the guy can play when his body lets him.

I have no doubt the dude could be a solid player for us and ensure our elite run D status. Obviously, this all depends on his health. Regardless, I'm routing for him.

People say how bad his Seattle game was, and while I did see him falling over a few times, I also saw him holding his point of attack very well. Maybe I'm just too easy on the guy, but he looked decent for someone who is still trying to get adjusted to playing in the NFL.

I didn't think he looked that bad either, especially since he didn't practice all week, and probably barely even slept with his wife having an emergency c-section. A lot of people just want him to go away because they are frustrated with his lack of availability.

The question is not if this kid can play or not, it's more if he can stay healthy or not.

You can have the best player but if his injured for the 3/4 season what's the point.

I'm sure this guy can play if his healthy and can be a monster it's really a shame tho his body is giving up on him. Waste of talent ...

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

:shock: :shock: :shock: Holy Long John Silvers, Batman! Green Bay writers wrote something positive about Justin Harrell, there much be evil mind control at work, behind this chaos, they much be stopped!

Seriously I happy Harrell is getting some good things said about him. I mean after the GB media calling him lazy for taking a knee and taking his helmet off (like the others have). Calling for him to be cut right away after he's been staying healthy and showed up well in preseason games, other than being knocked down some in one (but did other stuff well in that game) but possibly be thinking about his wife who could of been giving birth as she did a couple of days later.

If Harrell could stay healthy he locked up a shot on the roster as soon as it was known Jolly wasn't playing this season. And he's played pretty well just getting attacked because all of his injuries and his DL coach has good things to say about Harrell and he's work effort which is a lot more important the media opinion, IMO.

Wait.. so what he does it training camp and practice now counts?

Just last week.. it didn't matter.. as long as he played well in the game.

He got handled on Saturday.. you know the game day.

But now.. he won a couple of drill sessions.. and he has been legitimized because of practice.

Hmmmmm.. ;)

Seriously though.. since I am a Harrell hater, I hope the kid finally got his wake up call and becomes a player.

BTW.. us common people, whom go through the same thing don't get excuses after their child is born not to perform at work. With that.. I don't give him any excuses for his performance vs the Seachickens. But that just makes me a hater. 😉

Nope... it doesn't count, you misunderstanding what I'm saying. The GB media has been reporting every single thing Harrell has done that they didn't like. This is the first time I saw they have reported someone they did like. I'm happy for Harrell the GB media has finally written something good about him when there has been good all along about him this season they just refused to write about it. Not because he did good in practice.

He got handled on Saturday.. you know the game day.

According to the GB media he got handled. According to others Harrell got knocked down some and failed on some played but looked amazing on other plays but the GB media refused to talk about those. Harrell looked great on some plays and horrible on some other, but the GB media only write about the horrible ones...

Seriously though.. since I am a Harrell hater, I hope the kid finally got his wake up call and becomes a player.

I never said you were a hater. If you are that's you choice. But I dislike it when only one side of the story is reported.

That was sarcasm.. lol.

Seriously.. I want the kid to succeed.. but from what I hear this this is the first time the kid has stood out at camp.

Like I said.. maybe the light finally came on for the kid. I hope so.

I don't think the Green Bay media has been unfair to Harrell overall. I've read some positive comments about him. His work ethic has been called into question at times, but I can't recall any Green Bay journalist actually calling him lazy.

Let's face it, there just haven't been a lot of positives to report about Harrell. The writers have actually given him much more of a fair shake than most of the fans.

dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eeri

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?

beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Packers coach Matt LaFleur hires Luke Getsy as senior assistant, extends Rich Bisaccia's deal

Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Chiefs again huh? I guess another Super Bowl I'll be finding something else to do.

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Exactly buck...Washington came up with the ball. It is just a shitty coincidence one week later

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : I think this games over

beast (26-Jan) : Eagles sure get a lot of fumbles on kickoffs

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : This game looks too big for Washington

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : that being said, The Ravens are the Browns

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : Browns, Dolphins have longest AFC Championship droughts

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : As of today, Cowboys have longest NFC Championship drought,

beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)

beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab

Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
