What If Crabtree Falls?
I saw this question on Rob Demovsky’s chat over at the Press-Gazette this afternoon and thought it would be great comment fodder - If Michael Crabtree, for whatever reason, falls to the Packers with the ninth pick…does Thompson take him as the best available player? I tell you what – I bet he does. Tweet
What We\’re Dealing With
Go here. Look at the picture of the shirt, think about it, and then come back. (And yes – I have never linked to the site before, nor will I ever again, but I thought this the perfect example as to why…) Now, I know I talk about the idiocy of the irrational Thompson haters, [...]
The Titans Again? Really?
Why is it that the Packers always close the exhibition season against the Titans? It’s always so disheartening watching Jeff Fisher’s club out hustle and out hit the crap out of the Pack just before the regular season begins… Tweet
Brohm Needs To Step Up
Adam Somers over at the great new Packer blog Ol’ Bag of Donuts has a good overview of the pros and cons of Thompson’s selection of Brohm in the second round of last years draft and how perceptions of the pick have most likely changed over the course of the year. Somers seems to think [...]

Preston To the Pack
I like this signing. Not only does Preston add some much needed bulk along the offensive line, but he can fit at any position, including tackle. Watching him with the Bills last year, I think it’s obvious the Packers like how he can work in space. Preston is quite impressive when he’s out in the [...]
2009 – The Calm Before The Storm?
We previously posted a question to Packer Fans – “Could the current economy save the Packers?” with a video of Mark Murphy discussing that idea at Packer Fan Fest. Don Banks at SI .com explores the mood and sentiments of some NFL owners and General Managers. Read the article. There are some real uncertainties after [...]
Something We Never Saw…
…under Bob Sanders that I expect to see quite a bit of from Capers, illuminated here in a great write up on the evolution of the zone-blitz from Greg Cosell: Have a defensive lineman and/or a linebacker take a couple of steps forward, initially showing rush. This immediately engages an offensive linemen, who sets to [...]
2009 Titletown Awards Leaving The Nest
Thought we’d share this picture with everyone. The 2nd Annual Titletown Awards on their way to their winners. We love Packer Fans and these winners are some of the most die-hard Packer fans you will ever meet. Here’s to next season and yet another step for Packer Nation – even better videos, even more dedicated [...]
Thompson Impressed With Orakpo
That’s according to Gil Brandt’s report from Texas’ Pro Day. Astute readers will remember that I was pining for Orakpo back in December. Just imagine Orakpo playing opposite Kampman at outside linebacker. And smile… Tweet
Dom Capers On the 3-4 Defense
That’s right – that’s Dom Capers answering my question. My first baby step on the road to getting CHTV a Packer-issued Press Pass.

McCarthy In the Crosshairs
Thompson won’t say it. McCarthy will deny it. But make no mistake, Mike McCarthy is coaching for his job in 2009. Now, in one sense, and McCarthy has said this before, every coach in the National Football League is “coaching for his job” each and every year. This is true. But while every coach faces [...]
Willie Davis On Being A Packer Legend
Willie Davis. One of the greatest defensive ends to ever play the game. The Officially Unofficial All-Time Packer Sack Leader with over 100 according to Lee Remmel. What was the NFL thinking by not recording sacks and tackles during this era? It’s a shame. Paul Hornung reminded Davis he had 25 sacks one year. Holy [...]
So Much For Gonzalez
Looks like the Chiefs won’t be trading Tony Gonzalez. So much for my To-Do list…. Tweet
Pack Get Da Bears On Opening Night
Mark your calendars for September 13th. Opening weekend – Da Bears at Lambeau – in Prime Time. Oh, and Thanksgiving. Again… Tweet
Packers Look At Preston
Kevin Seifert over at the NFC North blog is reporting that the Packers “have expressed interest” in guard/center Duke Preston. Could this be the precursor for Daryn Colledge moving to right tackle? I look forward to firing up my NFL Game Rewind tonight to see some tape on Preston… (Incidentially, this is exactly the kind [...]
Thompson\’s \’To Do\’ List…
…after he gets back from the annual NFL meetings. Resign Greg Jennings Sign Kevin Carter Produce a knock-out draft class (with either B.J. Raji or Michael Oher in tow) Trade for Tony Gonzalez Resign Tramon Williams Resign Daryn Colledge Now, there are plenty of other things I would LIKE to see Thompson do (ie trade [...]
Dorsey Levens on Packer Fans
We thought we would end the Packer Fan Fest video playlist with a video that pretty much sums up what matters. The Greatest Team in the NFL is the Green Bay Packers. Oh and Dorsey Levens is cool. One other thing – Packers Lounge has a new edition of LoungeCenter. My favorite part is where [...]
PFT: Where\’s The Love?
Aaron Wilson over at Pro Football Talk has linked to our video of Donald Driver – and not mentioned Cheesehead TV. I mean, seriously, WTF? This from a site that goes on and on about not getting credit for stories that it ‘breaks’? Un. Real. Tweet

Typical
I take my Saturday, head off to the zoo with the wife and kids, come back home to Bedard’s Packers Daily Briefing…and find him ripping off my ideas. Again. I understand when a deadline is looming. I understand the pressure of coming up with new stuff everyday. But when a blogger can’t take his family [...]
