Official “It should have been us!” Superb Owl game thread

[MadtownPacker]

I’m down with swing for a strong #2 WR. Brown would have been the perfect fit but that got passed up for moral reasons IMO.

I wanted him badly too. Gute apparently made a phone call to him but that’s about as far as it went.

Some of these things need to get farther along then phone calls.

I didn’t know about the phone call. That’s actually a page out of your playbook. I felt the Brady helping Brown when he was getting dissed by everyone was too much of a factor. Consider me impressed he even tried.

Now you want to go all out well what can be done for Fitzgerald?

Larry Fitzgerald? He should probably retire. HOF player obviously and everything but he is completely washed. Cardinals gonna let him go.

Quit fooling yourself. Brown had no intention of going anywhere but playing with Brady. Any other "discussion" was for max income purposes. He was never coming to GB.

Maybe. Maybe not. Depends on how aggressive the Packers really wanted to be. We don’t know the dialogue etc etc. Was it, “Hey Antonio, How you doing? You thinking about playing? Okay sounds good, we’ll keep in Touch. Bye”

Sometimes there is more to this then just putting out offer sheets. Talk of a phone call doesn’t make me feel that the Packers were putting on the full court press to recruit Antonio Brown. Yes, Tampa and Brady probably had the inside track but I’m not sure the Packers ever really gave themselves a real shot to begin with.

Well that can't be true. I want a player to go to Green Bay, so if they don't it's 100% the fault of the GM. If you want a thing, you get a thing.

That's it exactly!

It's also helpful to remember that if you don't get the player you want in the move you want, and you raise holy hell, but that player flops elsewhere or gets cut or hurt, you need never mention that afterward.

Same thing if the GM does get the player you want in the move you want: if it works, you crow about it and tell everyone you were right, but if it flops, you stay quiet.

I thought Kevin king would put it together. Boy was I wrong. Plays 18 yards off on third and 3, ok, maybe he’ll figure it out. Then in the NFCC game dude plays straight man up in the worst situation possible and gives up a tud at the half. He’ll never get it.

Imagine being his coach on the sidelines knowing he holds your ability to collect paychecks in his hands. I'd be screaming at him all the time.
