    and thats a fair assessment, but like I said, I sweat I have seen more than my fair share of Bishop and Chillar on the field together. I'm sure we'd have seen even more if Barnett was around.

    Bottom line, the inside positions are a lot more similar than what you're making them out to be. Capers isn't some JAG who isn't going to find a way to maximize talent.

    Case in point: He played Jenkins at ROLB in the first pre-season game, with Poppinga at RDE the entire time the first team D was on the field.
    When? I have every PS game on tape and have watched them a few times. I never saw it. Against who and what point in the game?

    He never played Jenkins at OLB. He may have lined him up like a OLB for a wacky play (that is normal, he has done that with Raji and Jolly too, with Kamp at 3 tech in a 2 pt), but Pops has never played hands down 5 tech, and he has not run that for any more than a single play, definitely not multiples in a row. (Maybe Pops was hands down in GL vs Cle, I saw Jones there with the 2's at GL end on the Wells GL run vs Ari).

    Are you actually watching the Packers, or just making this stuff up?

    If Chillar was playing so great, why did Barnett immediately get his job back with the 1's?
    Like I saiad, I'm not positive I've seen them play together but I'm pretty sure I have.

    I'm watching Pack, reading articles, etc. Bedard even made reference to Jenkins lining up at ROLB.

    Barnett: $$$. Why have they not committed to starting him on opening week if he's good to go?
    P,

    Stop digging. This is going to end badly for you.

    1. I don't know, but i believe waldo is the kind of freak that is actually watching game tape multiple times..so i think you are mistaken. Feel good about your life that you aren't watching game tape and can rely on uber football nerd waldo to do it for you. It is like being a manager!
    2. Jenkins. Waldo..well, not he is right, but Jenkins hasn't "played" that position. And not the entire time. That is just wrong.
    3. Chillar just ain't that good, my opinion.Neither is Bish. But, to each his own.
    4. Barnett. $s are a weak excuse. The pack is gonna play the best player. As for why?....who knows. Maybe they want to be sure he is healthy and ready for the rigors...whatever, just because they haven't said doesn't mean he won't or that your scenario is right. Just basic logic.

    But, i will agree with you that Dom will work to get talent on the field and maximize diff players skills.

      Bishop has not taken one snap at buck in a game, and he hasn't been playing there in camp. By the time Barnett was cleared, shaking up the depth chart, competitive practices were over.

      You guys are kidding yourself if you think that Chillar has been our best LB. Maybe in practice, but all I know is what his game tape looks like (I've watched every play many times, over and over in slow mo), and his game tape ain't pretty.
      Yet the coaches disagree with you. No offense Waldo, you're an alright guy, but I'm going to trust MM over you on this one.
      If Chillar doesn't get touched he can make the play outside on the edge, but he gets chipped, just a little bit forget it. I watch the two inside backers and although Chillar can blitz a little, and play in coverage, to me he is just a guy.

      Bishop, I think he is a pre season pro bowler. I mean I hope they find a place for him, a package or something where they can use him on occasion, but he can't play a whole series. He will get eaten alive in coverage, and even in the running game, he still doesn't pick up his responsibilities.

      Hawk, really needs to stop think and start reacting, too fucking robotic.

      Barnett, there is the big "?". Nobody knows how he is going to play
