#Packers punting:

JK Scott in '18
- 20th in yards per punt (45)
- 25th in net (39)
- T-23rd punts inside 20 (18)
- Most touchbacks in the NFL (8)

Justin Vogel in '17
- 23rd in yards per punt (44.4)
- 7th in net (41.6)
- T-29 punts inside 20 (19)
- Second-fewest touchbacks (2)

[pbmax]

I am going to setup a Google alert for McGinn and any mention of Bobby April.

[RashanGary]

I think Scott will get better. He has potential.

[pbmax]

The drop in net average might not be all him, though he does hit some line drives.

Bring Black Janis!

Vogel never was picked up. It makes you wonder what is up with him and why we let him go.

I would bet its leg strength. He was not a bomber. He could place them well and get some height. He also had an excellent coverage team. But its hard to imagine he won't get another shot.

[Freak Out]

Do they finally get a road win?

[call_me_ishmael]

I hope not but they probably will. The smart long term play here is to shut down ARod and tank it. They need talent. The difference between 5 wins and 7 wins is several picks that over an entire draft could easily result in having your choice of 50-70 more players.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Pretty sure I saw Vogel in a youtube punt-off. Dude certainly has the leg. His problem was consistency, the same shit Scott is having.

Shaking my head. Jon Ryan was cut, what, eons ago? And the goddamned Packers are still searching for a bona fide punter to replace Ryan. Thanks Todd.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

With nothing to lose but better draft positionings, I want to see the offense run a tons of trick plays Sunday. I want to see the Double Pass, the Flea Flicker, the Fake Flea Flicker, the Halfback Pass, the Hook'N'Ladder, the Statue of Liberty, the Swinging Gate, and the Pistol Force.

[mraynrand]

I think Scott will get better. He has potential.

As Casey Kasem would say: "Keep your left foot on the ground and keep reaching for the stars"

[mraynrand]

The smart long term play here is to shut down ARod and tank it.

And you really don't need the humiliation of having Darnold outplay Rodgers.

[gbgary]

it's a pick-'em right now...with Rodgers lol. whodathunkit?

[MadScientist]

Anyone who's watched this season.

Backup OL Alex Light suspended for this week:

[Teamcheez1]

My conspiracy theory is that Rodgers was never healthy going into the preseason, but he was in negotiation to become the highest paid QB in the league. Rather than jeopardize the payday, he went along knowing he wouldn't have to show anything until the regular season started. The injury in the Bears game only compounded his issues

[Smidgeon]

Aaron Jones to IR. WR Allen Lazard signed from the Jaguars practice squad.

[mraynrand]

Aaron Jones to IR.

Tanks for the memories!


WR Allen Lizard signed from the Jaguars practice squad.

He's a slippery guy!

[Smidgeon]

Tanks for the memories!



He's a slippery guy!

Any potential? He's tall (6'4") but runs a 4.55. Isn't that J'mon Moore territory?

[Teamcheez1]

Aaron Jones to IR. WR Allen Lazard signed from the Jaguars practice squad.

Jones 3rd MCL sprain in 2 seasons.

You realize they saw him ALL last year even when injured because he was in GB and at facility. Had a physical during offseason and before camp and participated in camp.

How was he hiding the injury?

[Bossman641]

Just lose baby!!

With that said, I fully expect the packers to win the last 2 and fuck up their draft position

[run pMc]

I thought he ended up -- of course -- with the Browns? Oh nevermind, I see he was waived. Thanks Google!

They'd be insane to play him, especially with Spriggs and Bulaga both likely out.

Bulaga practiced today. When did Spriggs suffer a concussion?

It's not about leadership Aaaron, it's about protecting my $180M investment when there is nothing to gain. Philbin needs to torch Aaron and sit his ass.

[pbmax]

Probably after watching the game film.

This was strictly meant as a paranoid delusion. Should be viewed in the same vein as NASA faking the moon landing.

[esoxx]

Sit him please

The Packers brain trust probably wants him to sit.

But he wants to play so...

Really small TV audience for Sunday's game. Kenny Albert and Ronde Barber with the call. That could be painful.

MARCIA MURPHY, the self proclaimed wanna be owner...aka...in control....come on man !!!!!!!!!

DON"T BE A CLOWN
grow some stones and
SIT HIM DOWN !!!!!!!!!!

Doesn't matter what AROD says; you all those buzzers into your office, get their views, and then you either make the call immediately or if you want to be a Marcia note you are going to chat with Gooter about what is in the best interests of the Green Bay Packers and it will be your call

MAYBE THIS IS STILL TO COME; but IF IT DOES NOT

MARCIA MILLER will be his permanent name to me

[Pugger]

What is wrong with Spriggs? I pray AR doesn't get killed on Sunday in a meaningless game...

[Pugger]

Probably after watching the game film.

:lol:

Spriggs wasn't that bad however.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

What is wrong with Spriggs? I pray AR doesn't get killed on Sunday in a meaningless game...

Since this game is pretty much an exhibition, why not put the Great Arm of Butte in at WR? Would help Rodgers realize that not everyone runs routes like Greg Jennings used to.

Lol. I’d tune in to see it.

You can't because you are supposed to be boycotting the NFL.

He's doing a bank shot reference to Tank's boycott post you were replying to.

I like Kenny Albert but whooo boy do they need to reformat Daryl Johnston.

Jason Spriggs doubtful to play after being diagnosed with a concussion but starting RT Bryan Bulaga was removed from the injury report after being estimated as a full participant Friday #Packers

Holiday Offer!

I will buy a steak for the first three of you that show up on my doorstep Sunday after the game if Bulaga makes it all the way through.

[gbgary]

cobb doubtful. the Packers just might get a loss out of this after all...rodgers or not.

There may actually be a better chance of a loss if Rodgers plays.

The Packers chances of winning have increased

Haha! Hopefully we lose though! Hopefully young guys learn and grow. Hopefully all key players stay healthy. And hopefully we lose!

[texaspackerbacker]

I wouldn't stoop so low as to root for the Packers to lose ever. Hitting on draft picks or not is mostly luck anyway, and a few picks one way or the other won't make a helluva lot of difference.

[gbgary]

keep telling yourself that. the Packers need every edge they can get to actually do something in the small opening that's left in the rodgers window.

Packer brass disagree with you.

Packer brass disagree with you.

What evidence do you have of that? Or is this just your usual damn sarcasm?

[mraynrand]

What evidence do you have of that? Or is this just your usual damn sarcasm?

1) As I've pointed out numerous times, virtually very move this past year has been in the interest of turning over the roster, getting rid of Stubby and embarking on a new direction. Certainly, a lost season like this should at least net you a higher/better draft position. The Packers could field a reasonable team off their IR roster. So, yeah, they want losses, while still superficially looking like they're competing.
2) They don't believe for a second that draft pick success is based mostly on luck. Only a fool would believe such a thing.

[Pugger]

Haha! Hopefully we lose though! Hopefully young guys learn and grow. Hopefully all key players stay healthy. And hopefully we lose!

If you read Jets' forums those guys want to lose too! :lol:

[beveaux1]

If you read Jets' forums those guys want to lose too! :lol:

Most fans want them to lose, ownership is doing its best to put them in position to lose, but I think the players on the field and the coaches want to win. It’s a conundrum.

[texaspackerbacker]

2) They don't believe for a second that draft pick success is based mostly on luck. Only a fool would believe such a thing.

That would be labeling themselves as incompetent - based on the results of pretty much every draft since we got Aaron Rodgers. And it's hard to argue anything other than good luck in having Rodgers fall to us.

[mraynrand]

That would be labeling themselves as incompetent

if the shoe fits...


And it's hard to argue anything other than good luck in having Rodgers fall to us. The Packers still had to select him when they could have picked a ton of other need positions. It was smart drafting, and good GM work to bring in a coach who could re-mold the guy from a Tedford robot. Everyone passed on Randy Moss too.

You gotta make it to my door. And you'd better hurry, headed out of town soon.
