The Offseason
David Akers has been named to the Pro-Bowl five times and a first team All-Pro four time. Let's compare: Overall: Akers - 294/359 81.9% Crosby - 107/137 78.1% 0-19 yards Akers - 5/5 100% Crosby - 4/4 100% 20-29 yards Akers - 95/96 99% Crosby - 36/37 97.3% 30-39 yards Akers - 96/109 88.1% Crosby - 31/38 81.6% 40-49 yards Akers - 83/117 70.9% Crosby - 26/37 70.3% 50+ Akers - 15/32 46.9% Crosby - 10/21 47.6% Two things jump out at me, looking at those stats: - The difference at 30-... -

The Packers can get along without the often injured Jenkins, they have plenty of depth along the defensive line, I would like them to resign Howard Green for a veterans min, so you have three large bodies in Raji, Pickett, and Green. Along youngsters at Defensive End in Wynn, Wilson, and Neal. Drafting a defensive end in the the early rounds of the 2011 draft wouldn't be a bad statedgy either. The Packers have a lot of linebackers under contract in 2010 but not many have a future cemented wi... -

The Question
We had two 4th quarter drives. On the first one, we got a first down by running the ball and then got into 3rd and 1 on our next set of downs. We ran the ball. It's really hard to fault a team for trying to run it on 3rd and 1. Sorry, I just don't see the big deal there. On the second one, we ran it twice like most teams and tried throwing on third down and got sacked. I could see throwing play action on 2nd down, but I just can't get that worked up about the play calling when I disagreed with one... -

McCarthy and "Close Games"
Harv answered about Tomlin so I will take Caldwell. He took over a Super Bowl caliber team (including Super Bowl caliber offensive assistants Moore and Howard Mudd) and took it to the Super Bowl. He went 14-2 (impressive under any condition) while playing in a bad AFC South Division. In three years, this might indicate that Caldwell is under-appreciated currently and is indeed a top ten coach. But right now, to me, he seems closer to Barry Switzer or Brian Billick. Judging the Colts this year i... -

I see the points the others are making. MM has done a great job working with the team. The players respect him. They talk to him. He's great at working with the super-ego's in the NFL. He's done an amazing job with Rodgers and it looks like Flynn too. He's incredibly flexible, creative and innovative. He'll find ways to attack defenses weaknesses that are just awesome. Overall, I like him in the top 6-10 range of coaches and I still think he has a chance to be a SB winner. He has enough strengths... -

James Jones!
James Jones right now is half the player he could be. He seems to be very good at getting the right position for the QB to get him the ball, but then doesn't have the soft hands that could make him REALLY good. I don't know if it's his focus, or what, but he is also insecure with the ball from time to time. Jordy had a lot of yards against NYG, but don't forget that 80 came on one play. On another play he was careless with the ball and allowed NY back into the game. I think both are good num... -

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH............................ ???
HESTER Do you even entertain kicking to him ? Do you pooch the kicks and boot the punts out of bounce ? Let's not forget key plays in how we lost to the Bears. Hester nearly took one to the house and he did take one to the house a second time. He's the best in the business......heck probably the best return man ever.....and to be nice we have a poor coach on ST and probably subpar talent. This guy is a touchdown time bomb who can change games. Perhaps we lose field position by not giving hi... -

Today, the most important position on the field is QB. It's hard to argue with the results MM has gotten from that position since being here. He appears to be one of the best teachers of QB's in the league. The offensive statistics speak for themselves since MM's arrival as well: 2010 - 8th in PPG 2009 - 3rd in PPG 2008 - 5th in PPG 2007 - 4th in PPG 2006 - 22nd in PPG I have my criticisms of him (abandons the run too easily, gets too cute with playcalls sometimes, clock management, sticks w... -

Here are guys off the top of my head I'd take over Stubby Some will be more proven and some less proven From the AFC Hoody Genius--Best of the Best Mike Tomlin-----No Brainer Jeff Fischer-----Perhaps I overrate this guy but I've always put him in the top tier of coaches Jim Caldwell----Gotta give him his due for keeping the truck rolling John Harbaugh--Excellent coach Rey Ryan----------------debateable whether I'd take him or MM From the NFC Sean Payton--No Brainer Mike Smith--No Bra... -

I'm watching pre game warm ups for the Falcons right now. What we'll see out of them tonight are plays that they do well consistently. We'll see 25 carries out of turner, most likely. We'll see a fair share of TE dumpoffs to Gonzalez, and we'll see some passes out there for Roddy White to take away from the defense. In short, we'll see a few creative plays, but the bulk will be "this is who we are, and this is what we do". It's been successful to the tune of 2 losses, vs our 6. (Yes, injuries explain... -
