Studs and Duds, Iggles

[run pMc]

Cletidus Hunt and Joe Johnson contracts hurt. Not sure what you think about Mike McKenzie.
Oh, and Sherman's top 4 picks in 2004 were Ahmad Carroll, Joey Thomas, Donnell Washington and the infamous trade up for BJ Sander. This wish John Dorsey, Reggie McKenzie and John Schneider as his top 3 personnel guys, likely screaming in disgust.

Sherman the GM was a tire fire. His moves contributed to losing Rivera and Wahle and forced a lengthy OL rebuild for TT/M3.
As a coach Sherman wasn't terrible. He gave Favre too much leeway, and he was gutless on that 4th and 1 call vs. Philly, but generally he wasn't bad. He gets points (and cringes) for standing up to Sapp on the Clifton hit.

The OL GB rolled out vs. the Iggles was a surprise - many thought Runyan would start at LG, not Patrick. They held their own against a good front 4 in yet another lineup change.
At this point I gotta give Stenavich some credit for getting those guys ready. Also, Runyan looks like a good pick.

Remember the 2005 draft when people were screaming to draft a WR or 3 for Favre in his twilight?

Oof that was a bad draft for pass catchers.

Runyan is also just a rook and it may be more of a risk in terms of injury to send him into the fray. They'll do it if necessary, but I'm thinking they would like him to have another year of STR+CND. The other thing is he may be better suited to playing tackle. Might be harder for him to get low enough for effective run blocking. Looking at it again, though, I guess it may not be that big of a deal, since the difference in their heights is only about two inches.

Agreed. When Ron Wolf drafted a few corners in a row and sniffed out the stinker in the bunch, he just traded him away for an All Pro running back: https://journaltimes.com/packers-tra...6c456ee41.html

Agree also on the gutless fourth and one call. Sure it didn't work in the first half, but you gotta go for the dagger. At that point in the fourth quarter, the Iggles' D was sucking wind. And everybody knew that Packer defense was, well, a Packer defense. Ahman Green was beating on that Philly defense like Adrian Peterson disciplining his child. The offensive line was having its way with the Eagle back seven like I'd have my way with Drew Barrymore.

That game, and the Seattle game in what, 2014, took years off my life.

Jeebus, you guys are a bunch of masochists.
