Camp Reports 2013 or Oh No, That Doesn't Look Good

[Tony Oday]

It better not be the plague...our team would suck if that went through the locker room!

[Guiness]

TT says they are still looking for a kicker http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...on-roster-yet/

Crosby is on a 90%+ success streak and is 80+% through the preseason. Tavecchio is barely behind.This is Ted Thompson.

You expect him to discuss team business candidly outside the building with a reporter?

I wonder who this guy is, I bet he'd be a good poster, we need to recruit him!

[mraynrand]

Today's non participants at practice:

AARON RODGERS!

probably had to hire more temp ball boys to shag all the errant throws. Good for the economy!

[Harlan Huckleby]

Vince! Vince! Vince!

[RashanGary]

saw tts comments about Sherrod coming back. Looking at his picture, he looks to be in decent shape. Real big frame.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod 11m
#Packers out: Nixon, Richardson, Tramon, Mulumba, Tretter, Bulaga, Sherrod, Mulligan, Nelson, Worthy. Down to 10

ONLY 10% OF TEAM NOT PRACTICING!

COBB, RODGERS, OFFSEASON FAVE CHARLES JOHNSON ARE BACK. LET THE WR COMPETITION BEGIN ANEW AMID SELFISH NON LEADERSHIP

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 7m
OLB Andy Mulumba isn't practicing for the Packers today. Not sure why. He's been making a push of late.

YAY VERILY THE GODS OF FOOTBALL DEEM MULUMBA MUST SUFFER GREATLY BEFORE HE CAN BE RUN OVER BY THE 49ERS

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 6m
Combo blocking drill now. Chris Banjo fills to stop Lacy...

THAT IS HARD WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT

RANDOM THOUGHT: DOES PRACTICING AT A FRENETIC PACE HELP CONDITIONING BUT HURT WITH MORE INJURIES? IN GAME, A LOT OF BREAKS BETWEEN PLAYS AND DRIVES. SHOULD CONDITIONING WORK BE DONE SEPARATELY?

[pbmax]

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 3m
Rob Francous with a well-timed shoot of the A gap and nails the back. He plays physically in the run game.

FRANCOIS HAS BEEN RUNNING WITH THE 2ND TEAM. NO WORD ON WHETHER HE MATCHES TEAMWIDE DICTATE ON BIGGER, LONGER, TOUGHER. PERSONALLY, I WOULD HAVE GONE WITH BETTER, STRONGER FASTER:

Pete Dougherty @PeteDougherty 6m
In half line run drill Matthews blew up Bakhtiari, knocked him into Green, which knocked Green down for couple yard loss

MATTHEWS HAS DONE NOTHING IN PASS RUSH ALL PRESEASON. HGH!

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 19s
On kick coverage: Hyde, Bush, Taylor, Manning, Ross, Crosby, Lattimore, Francois, Moses, Boykin, Burnett. #packers

WHAT KIND OF PROTEST WILL red STAGE WHEN BUSH IS ELECTED TO PACKERS HALL OF FAME?

[pbmax]

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod 1m
Barrington, Lattimore and Francoos still ILBs on kickoff return. Ross, Franklin, Hines and Green back for

WEDHOD DETAINED BY AIRPORT PERSONNEL MID TWEET

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 3m
Ross taking first kickoff return.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod 3m
Green taking third kickoff ahead of Hines

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 3m
Franklin goes No. 2.

SOMEONE EITHER NEEDS TO GIVE THESE GUYS A ROSTER, GLASSES OR READING LESSONS

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 2m
Matthew Mulligan (elbow) remains out. He has that elbow wrapped up on the sideline.

THEY SHOULD PUT IT BACK IN TO HELP WITH THE HEALING, NOT KEEP IT IN A BOX

[Guiness]

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 19s
On kick coverage: Hyde, Bush, Taylor, Manning, Ross, Crosby, Lattimore, Francois, Moses, Boykin, Burnett. #packers

WHAT KIND OF PROTEST WILL red STAGE WHEN BUSH IS ELECTED TO PACKERS HALL OF FAME?

Good lord, just so long as he keeps his pants on

Mike Vandermause @MikeVandermause 4s
Harris gets first rep at halfback in team, then Lacy followed by Franklin

WELL ALRIGHT THEN. ITS STARKS VERSUS GREEN FOR LAST HB SPOT. KUHN FB. PEASE ON PS.

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 32s
On the second team line, Newhouse working at right tackle, Datko at left tackle.

PATLER'S GUY TRENDING UP. MY GUY LOOKS LIKE HE HAS DRESSED UP FOR TRICK OR TREATING

Mike Vandermause @MikeVandermause 1m
No surprise that Barclay takes RT reps with 1s.

IT WILL HELP EVEN OUT THE PASS RUSH WHEN BOTH THE RIGHT AND LEFT DEs CONVERGE ON RODGERS. NO MORE GUESSING WHEN THE NEXT GUY GETS THERE.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 2m
Pace has been fast and drills physical. I guess they realize hard-hitting Seattle is coming to town.

Mike Vandermause @MikeVandermause 35s
Lloyce Means tight coverage on White deep. Hits turf hard, comes up walking gingerly.

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 29s
Practice is in pads today but 11-on-11 action is pretty low key.

JUST REPORTING THE FACTS MA'AM. PHYSICAL ENOUGH TO HURT YOUR OWN PLAYERS, BUT PRETTY LOW KEY. MEANS WASN'T SCREAMING IN PAIN OR ANYTHING.

[pbmax]

Jason Wilde @jasonjwilde 1m
Rodgers with a TD pass to incredibly wide open Jake Stoneburner. All he catches are touchdowns. #Packers

I WOULD BE OK WITH THIS

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 1m
Defense not going very hard but a couple completions from Rodgers to Jones then Finley in the red zone

DUNNE THINKS THEY ARE STILL SOFT AND SLOW

Mike Vandermause @MikeVandermause 1m
Jones, Boykin, Walker line up at WR with Rodgers on last play. Indication Walker is No 5 WR?

WE DON'T KNOW MIKE, YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO SUSS THIS OUT FOR US, NOT CROWD SOURCE IT

Jason Wilde @jasonjwilde 2m
Don Barclay is still the No. 1 right tackle, but Marshall Newhouse did just get a snap there with the 1s. #Packers

I AM OK WITH THIS

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 41s
Coleman has been under center mostly. Hasn't been simulating the read-option much.

INTERESTING SINCE THEY ARE WORKING ON CARDS FOR SEATTLE. WONDER IF THEY DON'T EXPECT TO SEE IT?

COBB IS OUT, CONTRADICTING EARLIER REPORTS HE WAS PRACTICING. YOU WOULD NOT THINK THIS WAS HARD

[pbmax]

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 3m
DE Datone Jones is limping off. Hurt left foot again.

OH GOODY. JONES GOES INSIDE FOR TREATMENT. TALLER DOESN'T MEAN LESS INJURIES APPARENTLY

Mike Vandermause @MikeVandermause 2m
Hyde taking first punt return rep

AS LONG AS ROSS IS ON KICKOFFS, OK

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod 2m
Punt coverage: Masthay, Goode, Francois, Lattimore, Manning , Taylor, DJ Williams, Kuhn, Boykin, Jennings and House. Hyde fielding

IT WOULD HELP IF WE KNEW WHETHER THIS WAS RETURN OR COVERAGE PRACTICE. GUESSING ITS P COVERAGE #1. SO HYDE MIGHT NOT BE PUNT RETURNER #1

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod 43s
Ross and Hyde back for returns I'm that order

HE AND APPLESAUCE CONFUSED. REPORTERS NEED A TEAM BUILDING EXERCISE.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 1m
That last drill was scout team punt return. Ross is back first in actual return drill.

THANKS SPOON.

[pbmax]

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 42s
Hyde is second on punt returns. Looks like Franklin is third and Hines fourth.

Mike Vandermause @MikeVandermause 4m
Tavecchio made one from 36.

Mike Vandermause @MikeVandermause 4m
Crosby misses 3 in a row from 42, 42 and 44. Made fourth from 44.

CROSBY 1 OF 4 UNDER 50 YARDS. NO EXPLANATION WHY THE UNEVEN NUMBER OF KICKS

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 8m
Andrew Quarless with a couple receptions this move-the-ball period.

Mike Vandermause @MikeVandermause 5m
Newhouse gets snap with No 1s after Barclay at RT. My guess is Barclay would have to have bad game to lose job.

GIVEN THE VAGARIES OF TYPING ON YOUR PHONE OR TABLET, ODDS THAT SNAP MEANS ONE AND NOT SIMPLY FORGETTING THE PLURAL FORM?

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 1m
Coleman and Young both run a couple of read-option plays for the defense.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod 1m
And Ross drops a scout slant from Young, almost leads to Burnett pick

[pbmax]

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 4m
Casey Hayward picks off Young on fade route into end zone. That was Young working scout team.

Practice ends

[run pMc]

Good stuff today.

You even managed to get this in there without a Davenpoop reference:

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 3m
Franklin goes No. 2.
