      One-liner of the year from James Jones: We're sitting here talking about free agency. I could be going to Canada, you never know

        Yesterday's game probably did feel a good bit like Canada!

          James Jones, like him but do not see him as a must have. I think he goes the way of Freeman if he leaves.
          Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

            Talked with rookie safety Chris Banjo, who acknowledged his deal was for only one season. Exclusive-rights FA, it's GB's option to renew

              Tramon thinks they need more veterans, sounds like he wants them to slow down roster churn: http://espn.go.com/blog/green-bay-pa...-more-veterans

              “A lot of guys thought they know how to prepare when they were in college and whatnot, but then they get into the league and you find out that it's a different level to preparation,” said 30-year-old cornerback Tramon Williams, who just completed his seventh NFL season. “That's what you're faced with with young guys. Even though we always say it's a young league, yeah, it's a young league but it's an old league, too, because the old guys make the league go. That's the guys who've been there before, who know how to prepare, who mold the young guys. That's what they're there for. I understand that.”
              “I had the privilege to play with [Charles] Woodson and [Nick] Collins and Al Harris,” Williams said. “I understand what chemistry in the secondary can do. That's what you try to find when you get a good group of guys. You want to get guys all on the same page. You want guys to see things like you see it if you're the leader of that group. When you can get guys to that point, it slows the game down for everyone in that back end. That's when you start seeing a lot of plays being made out there. Whether it's your play or not, you know where the ball's going and you go in and you make the play. That's what we're trying to get.

                I believe those two dropped passes yesterday will be big, as he will want to be paid big bucks, but packers will be hesitant to pay big bucks to receiver who doesn't step up for the big games. Hope Im wrong as I like Jones also.

                  James Jones killed his second "big" contract with drops last time. He may have dented his worth again this time around.
                  But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

                    I am starting to believe that this defense and its young mix are a tough match. Of course having Matthews and Nick Collins healthy and picking up Navarro Bowman would help, but there will be years the youngsters have to make it work.

                    Can Capers scheme be made to work with young players?

                    Are they not getting the necessary coaching?

                    Has anyone talked to Fritz since last night?
                    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                      EDS:

                      "I don’t know," Dietrich-Smith said. "I feel good about the year I put together. Obviously I have a lot of fun playing with these guys, I’m very fond of them, but the game is the game, and the business side also happens, too. So, we’ll see what happens."

                      Dietrich-Smith said he wouldn't "make any predictions" if this was up to him.
                      "I’ve had a lot of fun with the guys playing," Dietrich-Smith said. "I hope we can continue it, but at the same time I think everybody understands the business side of the game and we’ll just have to wait and see."

                        Shields, Neal, Starks, Kuhn, Quarless, Finley, Francois, Pickett - sign in that order of importance.

                          Absolutely. Twill's INT came off this, because he read the QB and came off his man. Collins and Wood could do the same. Need some more experience back there.

                              I see James Jones snapping TD pass's from Philip Rivers in San Diego.

                              That just seems like a very logical final career move.
