If the knee doesn't heal and he can't play; that will go down as one of the worst moves in Packer history.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostPackers have created 9.26M in cap space by restructuring Bakhtiari's contract. Now just pray that his knee will be okay.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.

Nobody followed up about this, but Rodgers said this is categorically false.Originally posted by Sparkey View PostFox Sports reporting that Rodgers wants 50 million a year....."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson

Can you really believe what ARod says these days? I guess we will find out the truth when his new contract is signed with the Packers or somewhere else if traded.Originally posted by HarveyWallbangers View PostNobody followed up about this, but Rodgers said this is categorically false.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 have no problem believing Rodgers on this statement. I guess we’ll see when he signs his extension. Is there a belief that Rodgers lies? Is it because he used obvious word play to get around the coronabros regarding his vaccine status? Or is there another reason? As much as I’m torn between running it back another year vs getting a ransom for him, I don’t think Rodgers is an awful person.Originally posted by ThunderDan View PostCan you really believe what ARod says these days?

What we can't believe one word of is what comes from the mouth or pen of the media shitheads. It's disgraceful that supposed Packer fans would give any credence to those bastards over our own GOAT QB.
UpNorth, I don't know whether you were being sarcastic or what, but what you said above about the cap is absolutely true.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

You can do that, but there are consequences. Bak is a favorite player of mine, and I would argue maybe the greatest packers tackle since the Lombardi era.Originally posted by texaspackerbacker View PostWhat we can't believe one word of is what comes from the mouth or pen of the media shitheads.

But if his knee is toast thos new contract is a big big fuckupAll tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force.

I think it was a really bad deal regardless. The Packers proved this season that they have the talent behind him to have moved on and invested the money they paid Bahk elsewhere. Giving old guys top dollar rarely proves fruitful.Originally posted by ThunderDan View PostIf the knee doesn't heal and he can't play; that will go down as one of the worst moves in Packer history.It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!

More lack of cap understanding on display here. Bakhtiari is not one of my favorite Packers. He is good, though. Restructuring him is obviously just a piece in the puzzle in order to make things work cap-wise. Even if he turned out to be less than he had been or even not able to play - both very doubtful, the team would be fine going forward.
I don't know which is more amazing, that the media pukes can't comprehend things or that some in here gobble their shit and actually seem to believe it.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

What amazes me is that you come on to this board to say shit like this.Originally posted by texaspackerbacker View PostMore lack of cap understanding on display here.

If they convert to a signing bonus they are moving $9.26M out of this year and into future years. No one is making that up. No media puke is making that up. That is how the salary cap works. That you still come here and pretend it works some other way is what is remarkable.
If Bak some how needs to be cut/retire because of his knee we will have to pay $9.26M in cap in future years for a player that isn't on the team anymore. End of sentence period.Last edited by ThunderDan; 02-28-2022, 02:41 PM.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'm just saying what LaFleur, Gutekunst, Andrew Brandt, and some others who know what's going on are saying - in several cases with a "how to" of exactly how to do it. And yet, those media pukes repeatedly ask stupid questions in presscons that show how little they comprehend.
You have to really be stupid to think the team isn't pretty confident that Bakhtiari will be play fairly decent, but even without him, we lost 4 out of 17 games and 3 of 16 the year before with him missing a lot of the season. If he couldn't play, we'd be fine without him.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

I am perfectly fine in kicking the can down the road for someone like Clark. A player in his prime who is probably going to be a Packer for all the years of his contract.
Kicking the can down the road for a player who is coming off major knee surgery whose knee didn't respond well this year causes me problems.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.
