The Running Back Numbers Problem
Everyone and their uncle has an opinion on how the depth chart behind Ryan Grant will shake out after Thursday night. Brian over at Railbird is adamant that the Packers will keep four running backs, saying there’s simply no way the team lets go of camp surprise Tyrell Sutton, while Greg Bedard, responding to a [...]
3 Pre-Season Games Mean Nothing
Just echoing Corey’s post from last week. Yes, it’s exciting. Yes, the Packers are playing good football – but it means absolutely zero. The Cardinals game was exciting, I mean, who doesn’t like to watch Rodgers slinging it around for 300 yards and a couple scores? But as Greg Bedard pointed out, the Cardinals did [...]
So, Did I Miss Anything?
That’s right – I’m back. Big thanks to Corey for keeping up the blog in my absence. Lots for me to dive into this morning. I’ll have posts up about Aaron Rodgers, the work still-to-be-done on defense a lots of other stuff. Two weeks until opening night against the Bears. Go Pack. Tweet

First of all, kudos to the Packers for putting up Wells’ locker room comments on their website. Secondly, watching Wells, he handles things with [...]
Bedard: Bishop is better than Hawk
Great podcast episode of the Audible by our friends Sigmund Bloom and Cecil Lammey of Football Guys . We interviewed Sigmund after the draft to talk about his video analysis of Raji among other things. Here is their interview with Greg Bedard from today. Good stuff. Tons of subjects- Rodgers, Finley, Barnett, Hawk, QB backups, [...]
Offensive line is set – for now
A small argument about the offensive line erupted among Packer die-hards in our live blog this morning near the end of practice. The subject of the argument was the offensive line and it’s place in the blame for a 6-10 season last year. (look around 1:09 pm to the end) I want to thank Dan, [...]
2 Pre-Season Games Mean Nothing
Let’s be clear. These games are evaluation periods. The Bills and the Browns are NOT trying to win a game here…they are trying to evaluate players. Mike McCarthy said it best in his Bills post-game press conference: there’s no reason to strike up the band or anything like that. But yet – take a look [...]
