1. Will scrimmage another team in camp, in Green Bay

2. Friday practices are back on (change from the sports science M3 imported in roughly 2014 or 15)

3. Will be using STAA and GPS data to monitor player's workload (keeps some of the sports science around)

4. Has watched 2 years (1500 snaps) of Rodgers film from 17-18. Going back to 2011 next.

5. Supports Sky Judge, Expanded Replay, Both Teams Possess Ball in OT and Judge Dredd.

#5 was actually that he is excited about coaching on national TV for his debut. I don't care.

“It’s what we call our no-flinch. There was a free runner, I think it was Bart Scott came running in there free and just how he stood in the pocket and delivered an accurate ball and took (a hit), really he got folded in half like a suitcase. But that’s one of my all-time clips of him, one of my favorite clips of him.”


I get it. You need to get players ready to lay it on the line each week. But he isn't going to survive this attitude for long. You should have a no-flinch reel, where no one needs to flinch, because everyone does their job.

Schedule Browns to scrimmage in Green Bay. Everybody knows everybody anyway.

Kidnap J.C. Tretter.

Gutey can give Eliot Wolf a tour of the General Manager's office.

See how long it takes Mike Pettine to say, "If I had Baker Mayfield instead of Johnny Manziel..."

Just don't accept any discount coupons for truck stop gas.

Glad Frog Matt has put an end to that milksop Friday day off. Packers were often underprepared during McCarthy waning years, and not practicing on Fridays did little to prevent injuries.

Put J-Alex on an island against OBJ, and let’s see if the cocky corner is the real deal. If J-Alex struggles, don’t be surprised to see the guy fake an injury, and then sit out the rest of the practices. Took himself out of a game last season when some no name wideout was eating him out alive.

They practiced on Saturday under McCarthy for the last few years.

Those were a walk-through, not really a practice.

It was full speed practice. Friday's aren't the heaviest day for any team, but it was full speed out of pads, which is like all other teams Friday practice. La Fleur isn't moving it back to get more practice reps. He's moving it back so he can tinker with the game plan.


PHOENIX – Mike McCarthy was the second coach to break with decades of NFL tradition when he changed the Green Bay Packers’ regular-season practice week in 2014.

He still conducted the usual Wednesday and Thursday practices but then flip-flopped Fridays and Saturdays. A year after Chip Kelly challenged NFL norms with Philadelphia in 2013, McCarthy turned Friday into a rest-and-recovery day for his players, and then held a short but full-speed practice on Saturday.

Uh oh. If I were Aaron Rodgers, I'd be worried a little bit. Is LeFleur trying to prep Rodgers to get the living hell beat out of him this year? I would feel much better if LeFleur's favorite clip was of Rodgers, untouched in the pocket, throwing a long touchdown pass over the middle to a tight end.

He looks like the kind of All-American kid who'd be your best friend but fucking your sister behind your back.

How this relates to football I have no idea.

Hence, “frog” Matt.

Damn Tex. Introduced me to the word “frog.” He was like, fuck the Krauts, the Japs, the dessert n-word, the frogs...i was like, wtf is a frog. So I googled the word.

Uh ..... that was my father - except he was with the Waps and Dagos, not the Frogs.

APB, you never watched reruns of Archie Bunker?

Sorry, Tex. The only 70's flicks I watch are the Golden Age stuff. John Holmes was awesome.

Wiki says that Archie Bunker was a "lovable bigot." No such thing. You're either a lover or a bigot.
