When You\’re Going To Go 11-5…
…you have to lose five games. Took a day away from the blog yesterday and I have to tell you, it did a world of good for my outlook on the rest of the season. Yes, the loss to the Bengals was as demoralizing as it was unexpected, but people need to get a grip [...]
The Cuts
Here. Obviously, the big surprise is the release of Anthony Smith, especially in light of the fact that the team elected to keep Rouse, who had looked pedestrian all preseason before getting hurt. The first logical place to leap (and it is indeed a leap – we/I don’t know anything) is Smith’s exit from Pittsburgh [...]
Rouse Back At Safety – Brilliant Move
So today McCarthy let it be known that Aaron Rouse will be the starting strong safety for Monday’s game, presumably ending the dreadful “Charles Woodson At Safety” experiment. McCarthy speaking about the move: This is a great opportunity for him to step up…We look for him to be impactful, which he has been in spots, [...]
Woodson To Stay At Safety
Straight from McCarthy today, via his press conference, Charles Woodson will start at strong safety for the second straight week. I have to be honest, I’m not a huge fan of this move, especially as Rouse is reported to be back to full health. (Or as near to ‘full’ as any NFL player can be [...]
67 year record. Broken.
From Eric Goska (one of my favorites) of the Press Gazette: Rouse and Collins each returned an interception for a touchdown in Green Bay’s 34-14 win over the Indianapolis Colts at Lambeau Field. The two safeties became just the second pair to return Peyton Manning interceptions for touchdowns in the same game, and in doing [...]
Aaron Rouse – Time To Step Up
Toward the end of last season, I was a vocal proponent for Aaron Rouse to take the starting free safety job from Nick Collins. Then, this past offseason, I told anyone who would listen that there was no doubt Rouse would beat out Collins in training camp. Then preseason came and went and we were [...]
It\’s Time For Aaron Rouse
Enough. The Nick Collins experiment should be over. There are lots of reasons, but the biggest is something Collins himself said back in June: I’ll put it this way: This is my fourth year and what they’ve seen is what they’re going to get from Nick Collins…Maybe more (big) plays this year, but what you’ve [...]

What I Don’t Get…
…about people like this (thanks Corey) is the following: Favre has made it abundantly clear, with his actions if not his words, that he wants to play for the Minnesota Vikings. THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS. HE WANTS TO PLAY FOR THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS. And still, these poor misguided souls continue to collect their signatures for petitions [...]
Aaron Rouse: Time To Sink or Swim
Aaron Rouse, your time is now. Mike McCarthy indicated today that Nick Collins will be out 3-4 more weeks. It’s hard to pick whether I’m excited or on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Collins has been so nondescript, you have to get a little excited to see if the rookie can bring a little [...]
