Point/Counterpoint: Bishop Up
The inside linebacker has wowed fans and coaches once again during training camp with stellar play.
Point/Counterpoint: Bishop Down
Desmond Bishop is too inconsistent to be trusted as a full time starter at inside linebacker.
Bishop? He Is What He Is
Packer Update feels Dom Capers needs to try and utilize Desmond Bishop more. Aaron feels Capers is using Bishop’s talents as well as can be expected considering the linebackers limitations.
The Mess At Nickel Linebacker
So now, with Brandon Chillar out, we’ll all get our wish and get to see pre-season darling Desmond Bishop inserted permanently in the Nickel package, right? Maybe not. As much as the Packer Blogosphere wants Bishop to be the answer, he was most definitely part of the problem when he came into the game for Chillar on Sunday, [...]
Packers Blowing It With Bishop
So let me get this straight – A.J. Hawk has been praised by Winston Moss and others on the coaching staff as being ‘assignment sure’ and yet time and again we saw Hawk out of position or just flat-out getting beat against the Bengals. Meanwhile Desmond Bishop sits on the bench, completely unused because the [...]
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, [...]
Gut Reactions: Preseason Week One vs Browns
Wow. The Browns are bad. I wrote it in July. Desmond Bishop is coming for A.J. Hawk’s job. Strange that the Packers are having a punting battle in camp and refusing to punt. I can not express how happy I am that Dom Capers is with the Packers Welcome back James Jones How long until [...]

Also of note is PackerGeeks recalling Bishop’s thinly veiled accusation that the team was playing guys for considerations other than their production and ability. (Mr. Hawk, he’s looking at [...]
Watch Out For Bishop
I recognize that this is a way, way out there possibility (hey, it’s the slowest sports day of the year) but the more I watch the linebacking corps from last year, the more I think there’s a distinct possibility that Desmond Bishop could shock Packers observers and possibly take one of the starting inside jobs [...]
The Linebackers Are A Mess
Heading into this season, pretty much everyone from the Packer coaches to the media to the fans were in agreement that the linebacking corps for the Green Bay Packers would be the strength of thier defense in 2008. Fast forward to the present and you find a unit in shambles, somewhat due to injury but [...]
4-4 Makes An Apperance
Great post by Brian over at Railbird regarding the use of the 4-4 formation on the play where Matt Forte was stuffed on a 3rd and 1 this past Sunday against the Bears. (I’ll admit; I was shocked they got the stop.) Per Brian: The defense used a 4-4 front including Desmond Bishop and Brady [...]
