    I dont blame you! I respect Cheat's football skills but that's about it.

    Hard to find stud edge rushers. A bad season might be just what we need to make a super bowl run next year.

    Packers currently have the 18th pick. Only time they picked 18th (1990), they drafted Tony Bennett.

    TT would probably draft Lady Gaga with #18.

    Meh, I am not overly hopeful that a bad season would help. People said the same about the bad playoff losses...

    Our first priority has to be to fire Capers... until that's done, it doesn't matter where we draft, or who we draft.

    yup...cause it's 100% impossible to win a Super Bowl with Capers as the DC.....wait...we already did that
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    I do not understand how a team with so many first round picks spent on defense can seem so inept. Let's say you bust on 2/3 of the picks, well they would still have 1/3 that are solid players. In general, it does seem scheme and teaching related. I don't see too many players making the leap on defense to go from rookie, to solid, to star.

    I think their philosophy on defense is fundamentally flawed. We run 2,3-4, but the organization doesn't value LB's highly enough - specifically inside linebackers. Add to that their inexplicable attraction to soft, poor tackling corners, and dunderdummies addiction to abandoning the middle of the field, and you have the mess that is our defense for years running now.

    I think those deficiencies are glaring and obvious, but TT and co. don't seem to get it. So floundering along we go - year after disappointing year.

    A great start of that and any real reality would have been to see Ted Thompson make some kind of a significant move before the end of the Trading Deadline this (2017-18) Season.

    What did Packer GM Ted Thompson do?

    NOTHING ! ... ZERO ... Diddley Squat ... Natta !! ... Sweet 'F' All

    He has again decided to play his Marble Game with chipped marbles.


    As usual he was in his latest Episode of:

    Nice. One of my kids was really sick on New Year's Eve a few years ago. We stayed home that night and I ended up watching Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga sing jazz standards. She really is a phenomenal talent.

    She would be a game-changing pick at #18.

    Packers have the 16th pick. Last time they had the 16th pick, they took Justin Harrell.

    I'm an Irish Canadian.

    I'm glad we are not picking 16th so far.

    We'll go lower. Pick higher.

    I think it is time for Capers to go, but for this game, the defense actually played well enough to win, especially given the three turnovers to start the game. It's the offense that is stinking up the joint, and to that end, I am profoundly disappointed in Hundley. He seems absolutely averse to stepping up into the pocket, and he just does not seem to be able to find the open guy when guys are actually open. I thought he would be much better than he has been so far.

    Looks like ol' Fritzy was wrong on this one.

    Well?
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
