    No, but his scapegoat just got 51 yards rushing and 3 catches on a team that knows how to use him.
    I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.

    Doubtful, but what an epic FU M3 that would be...especially if he became James White of the Frozen Tundra.

    Is the Shanny Jr. ZBS a fullback or one-back offense?
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    49ers had a FB who started 14 games. Rams do not have a FB listed on their roster. LaFleur in Tennessee started out with 2 TE sets this year, but ran a lot of 2 RB later, although neither was a FB.

    I'd be OK with a mix of 4-5 FB/TE. Need on FB at least though.

    Does he count?


    Alex Marvez @alexmarvez
    Sources tell me Dom Capers being courted to become a senior defensive assistant by the @jaguars and @MiamiDolphins. If he doesn't become @bengals defensive coordinator, I expect him to join the @MiamiDolphins but we'll see

    After watching Sean McVay get outcoached by Belichek, it reminded me that McCarthy, for all his faults, usually came up with some pretty good game plans against New England.

    He coached better scared. In almost all cases.

    The one real tragedy was the Seattle playoff fiasco. If he was slightly more confident, that game ends differently.

    Interesting that Jerel Worthy and Jayrone Elliot are still around and can't get a gig on an NFL roster somewhere.

    I guess this really is the end of the road for most of these players.

    I have to agree here completely. Just a little more blood flow to the scrotum from MM and the Packers would've been in two Super Bowls in that era, and the Wolf vs. Thompson and Holmgren vs. McCarthy debates could have raged on.

    I kinda enjoyed the AFLN or whatever it was called on CBS. Reasonable football product. Mike Martz still not a believer in protecting his QB.

    Second Tweet in that thread is a highlight of a TD throw. Isn't Pressley a former Packer?

    https://totalpackers.com/2016/09/jhu...-never-happen/ I'm not sure why he didn't really get a real chance other than it was early in the season and they likely needed a roster spot. If he was all that, though, you'd think he would have established himself with another team with three more seasons in the books since then.

    As I scanned the AAF rosters and coaches, I came across another blast from the past: Tim Lewis - head coach of Memphis. I had to check if he was really the guy, not just a similar name. He is. For those who don't remember, Tim Lewis was probably on the way to becoming the greatest Packer Corner in my lifetime, and I go back to Herb Adderly and before. He played about two years, injured his neck, and never played again. He was truly the shutdown Corner at the pro level that one poster in here dreams he was in high school hahahahaha.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    Had he stayed healthy, and had Eddie Lee Ivery not blown out his knee back in the day, that Packer era might have been so much less dismal.
