Listen our interviews with Jermichael Finley & Greg Bedard on our podcast- Packer Transplants LIVE
Rodgers, Offense Off To Uneven Start
Aaron Rodgers and the offense are off to a sluggish start so far in camp.
‘Cold Hard Football Facts’ Wrong About Jared Allen
Kerry Byrne of Cold Hard Football Facts has gone off the deep end with his proclamation that Jared Allen is the “Most Valuable Non-Quarterback” in the NFL.
Finley Comes Clean
Greg Bedard’s feature on Jermichael Finley in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is simply a must-read for every Packer fan.
Finley Named Starter
Obviously, with Cheesehead TV having left the scene on Satudray night, Mike McCarthy had to settle for speaking with Bob McGinn from the Journal Sentinel on Sunday night. Or something like that. And yes, during said conversation McCarthy indicated that Jermichael Finley is the starting tight end for the Green Bay Packers. Yes, he (Finley) [...]
Opening Struggles Perfectly Illustrated
This just dumbfounds me: Quarterback Aaron Rodgers offered up an interesting detail in explaining his interception on the Packers’ first play of the game. According to Rodgers, tight ends Donald Lee and Jermichael Finley ran the same pattern. “We had a little bit of miscommunication,” Rodgers said. Emphasis mine. And here’s Rodgers’ full quote regarding the play: It [...]
Cheesehead TV Matchup: Week 14 Offense
Finley, Finley and More Finley Leading up to the season-opening matchup with the Bears, the buzz building around second year tight end Jermichael Finley had gotten completely out of control (perhaps with a slight assist from your faithful blogger). The Sunday night matchup ended up being a complete washout for Finley due to the Packers’ [...]

Check out the live [...]
Finley\’s Breakout Game?
That seems to be the sentiment. First, Sigmund Bloom of DraftGuys asked me about the possibility of Monday night being Finely’s breakout game due to both to the success Vernon Davis had with EJ Henderson in coverage and the fact that the Vikings safeties will be much more attentive to Driver and Jennings than they [...]
McCarthy \”Big Time Pissed\”
That’s according to Jermichael Finely responding to my question about McCarthy and what he was like addressing the team yesterday. I can’t say I’m surprised and, in fact, think McCarthy getting pissed is a very good thing. It will be very interesting to see what kind of week it is around 1265 Lombardi… Tweet
Finley\’s Frustration
Sunday night was supposed to be Jermichael Finley’s arrival as a playmaking weapon in the NFL. Thanks, mostly, to Adewale Ogunleye’s demolishment of Alan Barbre, that didn’t quite happen. I’m sure everyone has seen this, but in case you missed it, I’m happy to report that Jermichael was at least able to take out some [...]
Cheesehead TV Matchup: Week 1 Offense
OFFENSE Enter: Jermichael Finley Not since the days of Keith Jackson and Mark Chumura will Packers fans have seen as many two tight end sets as they are set to see in 2009. The second year phenom out of Texas is as good as advertised and will present a nightmare matchup, not just for the [...]
The Cheesehead Nation Bump Is Real
Last week I held forth a theory on the 2009 premiere episode of Packer Transplants that guests who come on Cheesehead Nation who are currently on the Green Bay Packers roster would be the beneficiaries of the Cheesehead Nation Bump (with apologies to Stephen Colbert). The evidence is mounting that The Bump is real. First, [...]

Jermichael Finley Ready For Prime Time
With Cheesehead Nation, that is. That’s right, second year tight end Jermichael Finley, who’s name is seemingly inescapable this week around the Packer Blogosphere, will be joining us live for our 2009 kickoff episode of Packer Transplants, along with the voice of the Green Bay Packers Radio Network, Wayne Larrivee. Brought to you by Cheesehead [...]
Players & Twitter: Sure, It’s Great NOW…
Packer fans are having a great time interacting with Nick Barnett, Jermichael Finley and Ryan Grant via Twitter now that it’s July. All across the NFL, players are Tweeting away, having fun exchanges with fans and everyone is in love. However. The first NFL season with full-on Twitter interconnection is approaching. I have horrible visions [...]
Finley Apologizes To Fans via Twitter
Everyone’s favorite quote machine (everyone but Mike McCarthy that is) Jermichael Finley might, stress – might, be starting to get it. From his Twitter feed last night: Let me clarify some of this media hoopla- I’ve stepped outof line and said some things that are foul and mad innapropriate. But that’s not me and I [...]
Humphrey Back In the Fold
This is welcome news. I was a vocal Humphrey fan last season and I was more than a little upset when the team let him walk earlier this year. His re-signing (thanks DDD) is one of those transactions that casual fans give little consideration to but that pay big dividends down the road. Last season [...]
Speaking Of Depleted Positions…
…what exactly is the plan at tight end? Tyler Bohms has a good post up over at the Lounge in regards to the play of Lee, Humphrey and Finley last year in comparison to the play at the position in 2007. I tend to agree with most of what Tyler has to say. I would only [...]
