    I love the way Lambeau's Packer fans start calling for Kuhn as soon as the team gets within about 8 yards of the goal line. I hope that tradition continues for a few years, as it is very sweet to have a player as committed as he is to running, pushing, leaping, grinding, turning backwards, clawing for yards feet and inches and basically doing whatever it takes to get his team a first down or a TD.

    I know we are not supposed to make personal attacks but this guy is an idiot.

    Who doesn't like Kuhn? But let's not pretend he is not replaceable.

      Those occur simply because of the lyrical nature of his last name. His performance has been moderate, at best.

      Maybe someone can help here. A few years back there was another player who often received a last name or nickname cheer just as Kuhn does now. But, I can't remember who it was. I suspect a few years after he retires, the same will be said about Kuhn.

      Kuhn being a significant part of the culture and history of the Packers? I doubt it. An anecdote at best.
      It's ok, what you say isn't far fetched at all. I'm just a fan of the Brian Nobles', John Kuhns' and Edgar Bennetts' and I believe those players are cultural bearers as well, even though they're not super human, perfect sports performing athletes. It's not like John Kuhn will be remembered as a Jim Taylor but I became a Packers fan in 1989 & Majik was the QB. I wasn't spoiled with Bart Starr, Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers to begin with but simply with Don Majkowski...a Packers HOF'er and deservingly so.

      John Kuhn in the Packers HOF is not a given, nor should it be, but John Kuhn in the Packers HOF would be consistent with the culture and history of the Green Bay Packers and the Packers HOF pretty much backs that notion 100% - thank goodness for that.

          By a lot, in my opinion. For most of his career, Henderson was a pretty powerful blocker who could clear a hole that wasn't there initially. Much better in that area than Kuhn. He was also a pretty good receiver. Had a knack for hurdling DBs who tried to go low on tackles. Carried the ball a few times per game under Holmgren, but not under Sherman.
          Former Packer FB William Henderson was with the Packers from 1995 to 2006 or 12 seasons. He had 5 TD's rushing and 14 TD's receiving for a total of 19 TD's. He was elected to the Pro Bowl in 2004.

          FB John Kuhn has been with the Packers since 2007 or six seasons. In those six seasons he's scored 11 TD's rushing and 8 TD's receiving for a total of 19 TD's. He was elected to the Pro Bowl in 2011.

            I always thought the fans just like having an excuse to yell the word "coon" out loud.

                        I like him as a player; just stop running the FB dive that almost never works.
