    I'm interested to know the team's end-game for the RB's this season. Last year, they cast their lot with inexperienced depth at DB, and the results were not encouraging. I hope they are not about to do the same thing at RB this year. If Monty gets hurt and misses any amount of time, right now the depth would be all rookies and Rip. Do you suppose there is still a chance they add a veteran free agent RB, like Blount?

    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    Except the RB position is nowhere near as crucial to a team's success as a DB. Except for two years of Lacy, the Packers haven't had a consistent RB since Ahman (with honorable mention to Ryan Grant). They can get by with "meh", but that's worst case scenario.
    No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.

    Except for pass blocking (and Ripper can do that) RB is the position most amenable to being played well while very young.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
