Best Thing I Have Read In A Month

Without calling anyone does anyone else have more legit posts. Majority are great.

I think they are waiting for you to tell us why 2 NFL playoff teams refused to take your advice and focus 3 guys on the give and instead sent someone running at CK to force the give? They seemed to decide that they would much rather have Gore with the ball than Kapernick.

Would be nice if TWill was actually attempting to take ball carriers down too instead of practicing his matador skills. House seems to seek out contact, put him on the outside against the pistol. Sheilds at least tries to get in the way. The DL last year was....adequate? Nothing special. Walden is terrible and Jones is out of place quite often. Other than Matthews, the LB's were less than stellar as well. Perry sets a strong edge so getting him back should be a huge boost. If Datone can penetrate and disrupt that would help as well. If nothing else, having 3 DL eat up at least 4+ OL would be a boon to the entire D. Here's to hoping Datone is good in run as well as pass so they can have him out there with Raji and Pickett eating up blockers.

DJ from the backside would help.

The so called unexpert keeps chirping expert advise?

Corners getting off blocks would also help.

Thanks for the responses -- glad you understood about using the current packer roster not other team's players.

If a team has a big line of scrimmage advantage any scheme works -- obviously the packers do not

ngata

Pretty sure ngata doesn't play for the Falcons. Though I will give you this: a dominant player can make all the difference. They can be tough to locate though.

Ah, the age-old chicken/ egg quandary.

Playing with better technique can overcome physical disadvantages, but playing at similar skill level shifts the advantage to physical superiority. Wayne Gretsky was physically superior to virtually no one, but became what he was due to superiority in some basic skills and even more so in his understanding of the game and his "vision" on the ice.

Gretzky. GRETZKY. GRETZKY

I don't think getting his name wrong is an act of treason in Canada, but it's damn close!

Is it like saying Neil Peart is awesome on YYZ and saying it Why Why Zee rather than Why Why Zed?

[Freak Out]

Plus he had some tough SOBs watching his back all the time.

LOL.

LOL.

At the end of the day it is desperate and pathetic

Yup, I agree. For some stupid reason, I have continued to spell his name wrong from the time he played in Sault St. Marie. Don't know why and can't seem to stop it.

There was another thread about players who can 2 gap on the inside, and Ngata can, effectively. Few can.

Interesting how much Walden is being slammed for his performance in the SF game, and Indi gave him a pretty fat contract for a guy the Pack found on the street!

I KNOW--when i heard the coaching talking about walden i wondered what he was watching. imo it was trying to talk them into the acquisition.
