Culpepper to Packers?

[ND72]

Sounds as if it's getting close...

Silly Vikings Fan...we have a resturant in our stadium.

[KYPack]

We must have a vet back-up. Rookies don't know how to fly the jet. Any back-up is a stop gap. Pepper? I have the same problems many on here have, but I think he'd be OK. He'll accept the role and the money. Time with MM and the coaching crew might put him back on track. A guy like DC might be able to keep the ship on course until AR gets back to normal.

All these rookies that eveybody wants to draft would be totally unable to play in year one. We need a guy with experience that can fill in when needed.

[Lurker64]

Personally, I think it would be hilarious if both Jim McMahon and Daunte Culpepper had Green Bay Packer Superbowl Rings.

i'm with bossman

yeah we need a vet backup to help a-rod if he needs help

but culpepper's a friken idiot

who the hell is he gonna help?

he's just going to sit there and bitch and moan because he's not starting

i promise you, the only rason he wants to come here is because he thinks a-rod will flop and he would be next in line to start again

i wouldn't put it past him to torpedo a-rod so he gets benched

On one hand he's probably the best out there

On the other hand we've sat on our asses while backups get signed and now we bring in this chump

Who cares; might as well go with rookies

Other than Garrard, what backup QB were you clamoring for? There wasn't much out there. Culpepper is as good as the rest, so big deal if Thompson sat on his hands. The two guys that we've shown the most interest in are the two guys I thought would be the best options. Who knows if Garrard even wanted to be in Green Bay. He didn't get much of an offer where he went. It could be that Green Bay did indeed offer more cash, but he wasn't that interested.

I need to get this negativity out of you. You used to be an optimistic realist, and now you find a pessimistic take on every story.


I'm not letting you beat me in Wii bowling this year. I'm serious. At least, not until you write a letter of apology to Ted Thompson.

i'd rather wait for june cuts to see what happens

Let's not get dramatic; I was not "clamoring" for anybody. But certainly I'd have preferred some of the others over Culpecker. Part of that is probably because I just can't stand the guy.

And isn't Gerrard Jacksonville's starter ? I'd take him in a second if we could get him. My guess is you mean Quinn Gray. I'd certainly prefer Gray and possibly even Cleo Lemon over Dante without looking back at the list.

And you are SO getting your ass kicked in wiii bowling. I think you've became softer in your critiquing ways and if that's an indicator you'll be lucky to beat me in tennis again

You heard it right, Ras.

For privacy, they booked the Longwell Room.

What June cuts? With the cap shooting up, there's not much need to wait till June and cut people for cap reasons.

Culpepper put up a QB rating of 78 last year at Oakland, as long as he's a good teammate, he's serviceable. If he were behind Brett, nobody would care because he wouldn't see the field.

[DannoMac21]

I'll get hated on because of this, but I'm giving my thumbs up to this potential deal.



Hopefully, he wouldn't have to play. Outside of David Garrard, I'd take this option over some of the other backup QBs that were out there.

Rodgers-Culpepper-Josh Johnson

I'd take that.

Quinn Gray?

[HarveyWallbangers]

Quinn Gray?

Indeed.

[Jimx29]

Our buddy Florio at it again......Mad would love this one...he can call him Culfumbler again!

I rather prefer "fumblina"

[Carolina_Packer]

It's easy to scoff at this potential signing, but it does make some sense. Culpepper has spent the last two years in NFL hell. Playing for a bad Dolphins team when his rehab was not complete and then playing for the Raiders...nuff said. If he's in decent shape, why not take a chance that he can be a serviceable backup? He certainly has good experience.

Look at Jeff Garcia. He spent one year with Cleveland on a laughable team and then went to Detroit (or was it the other way around?). Anyway, he freed himself from that hell and rebounded in his career. I know he didn't hurt his knee like Culpep did, but again, if his knee is rehabbed, why not him? He just might find it again in Green Bay in a pretty good team. Then you could look at more of a project at QB, like a Josh Johnson.

[BZnDallas]

i guess i'm a bit wishy-washy on this as well ... one part of me hates the idea of having the arm rolling celebrationer help this team get to the promise land... but then the other part of me thinks (if the unfortunate event of having arodg go down) that if this guy takes us and helps us win the super bowl, what would all the viqueen fans think?... it would be so sweet to be able to talk mad S*** to my viqueen fan friends!!... "he couldn't win one with ya'll, but was able to get it done in GB"... ahhh, i can see it already... they might even burn down that crap hole metrodome in angst... one could only hope... ... i'd say i'm 60-40 on bringing him in... just one mans opinion...
