Why Rodgers Will Fail and Why Favre Needs to Come Back

[Brando19]

Who cares about 40 times? Greg Jennings is one of the best WR's in the NFL and I don't think he had the best 40. Justin Gatlin can't make an NFL team and he's a world class sprinter. Combine times are thrown out the window when you get on that field with pads. Let's not debate Nelson until after the first couple games.

[cheesner]

Schroeder was 6'4" and ran the 40 in 4.3 seconds. Nelson is 6'3" and runs the 40 in 4.6 seconds.

By that logic we should be giving Jerry Rice's Hall of Fame slot to Willie Gault.

No one is saying Schroeder should be in the NFL HOF.

But you are assuming Shroeder is better than Nelson based on 2 of the most rudimentary combine numbers.

Schroeder is better than Nelson. Time will prove me right.

Time will tell - as you say.

What is your track record though? What other players did you support?
Harrington, Huff, and Schroeder? 2 failures and a marginal player. Who else?

[mraynrand]

Tank,

I think Bill Schroeder is a better pro WR than Jordy Nelson and you can't prove me wrong. Get the point?

Schroeder was 6'4" and ran the 40 in 4.3 seconds. Nelson is 6'3" and runs the 40 in 4.6 seconds. I'll take Schroeder in his prime over Nelson any day.

You didn't get the point. Oh, well. Now my depression has deepened. Perhaps another session with John Holmes, MD, PhD. will be necessary.

[Packerarcher]

It's ok Tank I agree with you,Hangnail Rodgers will lead the Packers right down the shitter. Actually we will not have to worry about Rodgers being the reason the Packers have a terrible season. I don't think he will make it past game 5 without getting hurt.

\I have never understood the sentiment about running your franchise QB out of town .......

Say what???? Favre wasn't run out of town.

I never said he was run out of town, and I don't agree with the idea that TT did such a thing. What I was referring to is the sentiment of many on this board and in the media. Even during last season a lot of people were saying that Favre's time had passed and its time to give A-Rod a shot. I happen to like the job TT has done so far, even though I think the loss of Favre will turn a 13-3 team into a 10-6 team because of what Brett brought to the position.

A-Rod will probably be good enough to run the offense, but I just don't see the durability it takes to survive the physical beating a QB has to endure nowadays. Even if Favre does return I feel it would be insane to trade A-Rod because unless Brohm has a kickass preseason Aaron would still the 2nd best QB on the roster. Who knows? Maybe Favre does return and gets injured and we end up with A-Rod anyway. Maybe a three QB rotation of A-Rod, Brohm and Flynn would work but I'd rather see the stability at the position we've had for the past 17 years.

I've been away for a while so I apologize if my musings seem a bit scrambled. I gotta get back up to speed.

Sorry - my mistake.

Can you honestly leave us alone here at Packerrats. We have kicked you out. It seems you are unwanted. Packerrats is like your father, we just want you to leave us alone.

My dad wants me to leave him alone? Lol. Father of mine:

Daddy gave me a name
My dad he gave me a name
Then he walked away
Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away

Relax fair nutz. I am leaving soon for a 3 weeks vacation in Europe (Friday), and then its back to school. Madtownpacker has my verizon ip banned, remember. I can probably post using GW's campus ip, but i wont. Forums are pretty addictive andi am not an undergrad anymore so I cannot waste time arguing with you on here while the semester's a rolling.

The reason i am posting right now is because i am high and I want to make sure my record for getting banned will never be broken.

That's quite a legacy.

Well, i guess its a good thing you dont go there then

[Tankduke]

I guess you've never been to college then. I don't live on campus anymore, bum. Those that live offcampus don't have access to their campus network unless they're on campus. Are you still in high school or something?

And until you attend grad school, you won't know how strict it is, especially if you're trying to get a master in economics. Undergrad, you party every night, cram the night before an exam and if you're smart like me, you can ace it. Grad school, if you wanna do well, you gotta have discipline. You gotta be prepared. Dont do well, they kick you out of program. Talk about wasted investment! The last thing I want to do is drop out after my folks have already invested so much money in me.

But if you miss me, you can always ask to madtown to unban the verizon ip that i use for my laptop. I might be able to find the time to drop by once in a blue moon. After all, as Eminem likes to say, it'll be so empty without me.

Most of just about everything you ever written is a lie, but you actually responded to my post with decent temperment. I respect that.

[Zool]

I used to think you didn't actually believe most of what you write, but I'm starting to change my mind. I think you might actually be this dumb. No one can be so consistently wrong in predicting things of which they claim to have a vast knowledge.

If you're just saying it for effect, please stop. I have to sift through all of these threads and seeing anything from you is like watching Battlefield Earth six consecutive times. Its just cruel and probably the worst thing to ever be published for public viewing/entertainment.

In summary, you=lacking actual football knowledge. I dont care which WR you blew in HS and changed the story to be sports related.

Is this a little like wanting to set a record for most interceptions thrown in a half?

Please don't quote Clayton. He is a dumbass. He thought Chicago's offense was going to be all-world last year because he saw Devin Hester in workouts.
