#Packers released RB Don Jackson this morning. Source close to the situation said Jackson expected the news after Packers drafted 3 RBs.
Isn't this the UDFA that the Pack reactivated from IR, only to see him go right back on it? I thought he must've shown promise for them to use that designation, but maybe it was as I suspected, they were just grasping at straws.Quote:

Damn!
I think Michael and Jackson were no better than the incoming rookies. Jackson for sure, Michael's ceiling was already reached. His vision (lack thereof) frustrated me to no end. Some people are projecting our first RB to have the best vision in the draft. What Michael was making was too much for a #3 RB. So...gone.Quote:

Weird, but true: Joe Philbin is the only coordinator in Packers history to become a head coach after leaving Green Bay.
He missed one, but other wise is correct. Can you name the non-coordinators who became head coaches after GB? Can you name the one he missed?
NFL head coach only? Sherman went on to coach Texas A&M. Jags coached in the NCAA as well.Quote:

Coordinator would be Ray Rhodes. Non-coordinators would be McAdoo as Guiness noted. Two more that immediately come to mind are Dick Jauron & Mike McCarthyQuote:

I thought I made it clear above that '99 was best left unmentioned?Quote:

Non-coordinators --> NFL coaches: Mariucci, Reid, Gruden, Morninghweg (sp?)
Yep, and that is just the Holmgren years.Quote:

Green Bay assistant coaches who became HCs, how have we so far forgotten Tom Coughlin? Dick LeBeau, too, one year HC in Buffalo.
