Since he signed elsewhere, off topic comment coming.

Shawn, I think that's easily your best signature ever! I mean that too, it makes me want to fire up Photoshop and make a new one!

I'm pretty sure that Carr, Leonhard, Hester, Burleson, Bess, and Cotchery were all starters also.

Slocum...that is another story.

No, it's the same story. I'm convinced we could have the best returners in the league and it won't matter cuz of Slocum.

I REALLY like Mike McCarthy, but his allegiance to Slocum leaves me scratching my head.

"digsthepack" wrote:

Allegiance? Isn't this Slocum's 2nd year? Is that really allegiance? Don't get me wrong, I want the guy gone too but I don't think he's here due to allegiance. I think he's here to get a fair\last chance. I hope the shithead gets it done, but...yeah.

The returners last year would look a lot better if we didn't have so many penalties taking away returns. I think we even had a TD or 2 called back. They actually would have looked pretty good.

Since they are spending extra time working on cutting down penalties and making blocks for the returner, it may be the fix we actually need, if not what every body is looking for.

Mike Holmgren used lots of starters on ST in '96. Didn't seem to be a problem for them. Specially when they got Desmond a return for a TD. Doesn't happen without great blocking.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.

Really the dynamic returners are starters.. I grabbed 2009 stats.. anyone with more than 10 returns.. and colored the starters I could think of off the top of my head.. I may have missed one or so.. but the majority are non starters that have a returner primary role.. which is pretty standard.

I couldn't decide on Cribbs.. starter or no.. lol. But illustration is clear.. starters don't return punts on a normal basis.

I'd vote no. And I'd have voted no on Sproles as a starter. He's been a career backup to Ladainian Tomlinson and now to Ryan Mathews. It's like calling Brandon Jackson a starter.

Maybe 10 percent of a quality punt return is (i) catching the ball and securing it, (ii) the first two steps.

The rest is blocking.

Most of the explanation for the Packers' mediocre return team is performance of the other 10 guys.

Or, I suppose, if you are a member of the Jarrett Bush Fan Club (see McCarthy, Mike), other 9 guys.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Since this thread started or last post, however you wish to see it.
Clifton Smith was cut from Dolphins.
Clifton Smith signed with the Browns.

Edit, he was waived 9/21/2010 (or around that date)

Dolphins waived RB/KR Clifton Smith.
The coaching staff apparently decided they couldn't afford to carry a return specialist when he's averaging just 4.5 yards per punt return and 17.3 yards per kickoff return. Davone Bess will likely take over on punts with Patrick Cobbs and Nolan Carroll on kickoffs

I care less about who would replace him, but color still not happy we are gambling with Tramon returning punts.. is importance to this team has only elevated with his play this season.

buckeyepackfan (6h) : Packers @ Bears week 16(Saturday Game)

Zero2Cool (12h) : Clifford hasn't been the same since losing 8

dfosterf (14h) : Sean Clifford would probably disagree

dfosterf (14h) : Canuck Cannon. Got a very good feeling about this

Zero2Cool (14h) : Tom Pelissero also reports what bboy stated

bboystyle (15h) : The Green Bay Packers on Monday signed Taylor Elgersma, the Canadian-born quarterback who tried out at the team’s rookie camp last weekend

beast (15h) : There were reports four days ago that the Packers were signing QB Taylor Elgersma, but no official action since

Zero2Cool (17h) : And for Ian Rapoport to announce Saints send 1st and 2nd rounder to Packers for Malik Willis.

dfosterf (17h) : *Elgersma*

dfosterf (17h) : Today would be a good day to discover the Pack signed Taylor Engersma, the Canadian QB

Zero2Cool (11-May) : It wasn't. He simply wanted his money back. They refused. Cops came. They gave him his money in end.

dfosterf (11-May) : Fortunately it doesn't sound like a big deal

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Elgton Jenkins Involved In Strip Club Dispute ... Cops Called To Mitigate

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Derek Carr retires. Shoulder must be bad.

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Packers Pro Shop is not currently printing Golden #22 jerseys “until his number is confirmed after Training Camp.”

greengold (9-May) : My impression is he's a Peruvian soccer fan not a bares fan.

Martha Careful (9-May) : Favored Illinois Bishop?

beast (9-May) : Technically, the I in FIB stands for Italian now, Si?

dfosterf (8-May) : I never thought I'd live long enough to call a pope a FIB, but here we are

Martha Careful (8-May) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback

wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:

Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

beast (7-May) : My first name starts with R and my beer belly is quite voluptuous! Thank you for noticing 😏

Zero2Cool (7-May) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.

Zero2Cool (5-May) : Cardinals have signed TE Josiah Deguara.

Zero2Cool (5-May) : If I were to "Google" it, then I wouldn't read it in your words.

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.
