This is my first post here. I needed a place to vent, since the old Journal/Sentinel forums were shut down and heard great things about this forum.
Now my issue with the Packers is how soft we are and my theory on why. It seems, well it doesnt seem, its an actual fact that EVERY year we are injured all over the place, shuffling around the O-line like musical chairs already. Guards playing tackle, tackles playing guard, defensive players always injured, this guy, that guy, always hurt. Heres my theory on why.
Green Bay is a small community and not really alot of room for guys to act up in that town and it not get all over the news, so they draft a certain type of guy, less edge, less outspoken, less brash, less nastiness and that shows in the product we put on the field, look at Sea. and SF. just mean nasty hard hitting mofo's, fast, hard hitting, always pumped up.
Green Bay players softer, quieter, sure Clay does his "stuff" but other than him its a bunch of softer type guys, even the defensive we play is non-confrontational. Let the guy catch the ball, we'll tackle him later, let him make enough yards for the first down, we'll tackle him later. Last night one guy tried to tackle Beast Mode by grabbing his jersey (at least he ripped it as he ran for the TD, take THAT Lynch!!)
These guys are great in the community, and Im sure the locker room is a awesome environment, probably no cursing or horseplay. That will buy us nice seasons but its always going to end in defeat at the hands of these nasty teams like SF and Sea,
No I dont want criminals like SF has but I dont want this bland bunch of softies either.
Why didnt Sea have a bunch of guys knocked out...because we didnt knock them out..we couldnt.
My second theory is that we need to get new trainers in here with new methods or training programs, why dont other teams have the same injuries that we have..we have an INSANE number every year, even the Superbowl year, Its time to tear up that old weightlifting notebook that was passed down to us from Bill Walsh and all his disciples and get some new methods in GB.
Thoughts?
