TT Supporters

[PaCkFan_n_MD]

I’m still new to this forum and still don’t know many posters. But in an effort to spark conversation and to get a feel for what peoples views are on this forum, I would like to know who do or does not support TT and why.

[jack's smirking revenge]

I'm not for or against TT. I believe this is his first true, full year as the Packer GM and I believe he deserves our patience. He's made some moves that Packer fans question, by all accounts had a great draft and is choosing his battles wisely. I personally think he is/going to be a great GM, but I think its too early to tell.

(Essentially, I weigh on the side of supporting him.)

Smirkie has it right. There has been many lengthy threads in the past discussing this very issue, of coarse you have no way of knowing that. I think most people are taking the wait and see approach. Meanwhile some are taking the "Let's lynch the bastard" approach because of his handlings with Wahle and Rivera, Walker, etc etc. You gotta break a few eggs to make an omelete. If TT can turn this team into a Contender omelete smothered in beer and cheese, I'll eat that bad boy up without silverware. If not, well then we lynch the bastard. He's got 3 years, maybe four depending on year to year improvement. Good to have ya here "PackFan N MD"

I still don't know what to think yet. He has done some great things and also some things that I don't agree with.

It's still too early to judge his drafts.

I don't really care that he isn't into signing top $$$ FA's, but I think he waited on things a bit too long this year, especially seeing FA was limited.

M3 is a big, big question mark and will he be THAT much of an improvement over Sherman.

TT did nothing to help the team last year at all. Also let the precious small amount of cap space that we did have, slip through the cracks.

I like how he handled the JW situation before it became a distraction.

Glad he made signing Kamp a priority

Don't like how he seems to have the mentality that guards are easily dispensible.

So, yeah - the jury is still out on what my personal thoughts are on TT. He has a higher approval rating from me than our own President does though, I guess that's positive, right?

TT's biggest move was hiring M3. And we have no way of knowing yet how M3's going to be as an HC. Lots of reasons to question that decision, but I think most folks are willing to see how it pans out.

Things like the Nick Collins pick are enough to give TT the benefit of the doubt at this point on his drafting. Very few people thought that was a good pick at the time (especially me).

I think TT has not been particularly good at the PR/player relations part of the job, but he seems to be capable of learning from past mistakes, like getting Driver taken care of after botching the Walker gig.

But in the end, TT will be judged on M3. I'm staying tuned.

Im for him. Get rid of the punks, build defense and win championships!!!

ok so he has to win the championships but I like the players he has here.

[MadtownPacker]

TT is a draft pimp. He is building depth and setting the team up with a well structured roster for the years to come. Good things will happen with TT at the wheel. Just dont get bored when he doesnt drive the team 100MPH.

I guess at this point in time, I'd have to say 60 / 40 in favor..

Thought he could've done something to keep ONE of the guards (pref Wahle) and make one more serious run at SB w/Favre, maybe do something more to de-fuse the Walker situation..

Agree he's doing a good job of stockpiling young talent (football players), I kind've like the M3 hire (has QB coaching experience.. read Favre and now a young Rogers) just not from a winning program ala Holmgren.

[SD GB fan]

i love his overall approach toward building a team like drafting and FAs. but i think he shud be more careful with the Oline.

the only thing i fear for TT is that, despite doing the right things, his team might still fail. some things are out of his control like the development of his players, coaching and luck. will he get the right bounce? shud be interesting to discuss after 3 years.

cOUNT ME IN tt'S CORNER ALTHOUGH HE HAS MADE SOME MISTAKES. Personally I would have rather paid $$ to a younger corner with less of an injury history than Woodson. Harv, not all UM players are great!

[RashanGary]

I might be TT's biggest fan. I believe in what he says. He doens't give direct insight into what he is going to do, but his phylosophy is known at this point. His goal is to be a better talent evaluator than the competition and focus on value in all his decisions.

I've written a thousand times why I like the guy, so I'm just going to make it quick.

[GBRulz]

you've posted a bunch of OT polls, too and that doesn't seem to stop you from being repetitive!

LOL
