Haven't been keeping close watch, but he seems OK. Browns also seem to be bereft of offensive weapons. My advice about Cleveland: Save your energy. Save yourself. Avoid Cleveland. -
He's free! He's free!. Hope it's for real. Wonder if the coaching change has made a difference.

Green Bay Packers edge rusher Lukas Van Ness credits the freeing of his mind and the release of his perfectionist habits for his rapid progression as a player to start his third NFL season.
Following Thursday's joint practice with the Indianapolis Colts, in which reporters on the sideline credited him with at least two sacks in 11-on-11 periods, Van Ness said he's thinking less and playing more.
"Just freeing up my mind," Van Ness said. "I think the ability has always been there. At times, like Matt (LaFleur) said, I'm a perfectionist and wanted to do the right thing all the time. But this is the game of football, and it's an imperfect game. Sometimes you gotta make the wrong play to go make a play. Not overthink. I think I've opened up my mind to that. It's worked out well so far."
Van Ness's comments almost perfectly mirror what coach Matt LaFleur said about his progression earlier this month.
"I think Luke always want to be perfect, and this is an imperfect game, and sometimes you just have to go," LaFleur said last week. "He's starting to learn that. He was a young player when we drafted him, and he's getting more reps and he's doing a really good job."I can't run no more

I agree. Worse yet, I feel like he saw Bakh sit back down over and over while collecting his money and thought he could pull the same move. But Bakh was more legit imo....and it the Packers brass' opinion.Originally posted by Bretsky View PostThe only time success comes before work is in the dictionary -- Vince LombardiComment

I think 2 years of development made the diff. To be honest I never thought he was that bad when he was on the field.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostThe only time success comes before work is in the dictionary -- Vince LombardiComment

He played only 2 years of college ball. Some people at the time said he should have stayed another year at Iowa before going pro. He was still a bit of a project when the Packers drafted him.Originally posted by bobblehead View PostI can't run no more

Speaking of - well, not panic but disappointment - I thought Jacob Monk would be a very solid backup center this year, lining himself up to take over when Elgton Jenkins becomes unaffordable at season's end. But The Monkster has by all accounts had a disappointing training camp.
On the other hand, Ty'ron Hopper seems vastly improved and may be challenging Simmons for that #4 linebacker spot."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."
