    Tightwad or Prudent?

    I think its relative, compared to what the Vikes have done TT looks like a genius and has certainly been prudent, compared to the Pats he looks like a rookie and has been a tightwad.

    Report: Packers on verge of trade for Moss

    The plot gets thicker...or even more ludicrous "Moss and Packers quarterback Brett Favre are said to have been talking on the phone throughout the process. Press conferences could be held as early as Friday." Moss headed to Green Bay?

    Ted Thompson's coaching moves

    Like you Porky, I dont subscribe to the view that TT calls the shots when it comes to coaching decisions and decides who gets the coaching job. I do however think he has views and expresses them to MM. I do also think that while MM doesnt blindly follow TT's suggestions he is likely to consider...

    Packers will try out long snapper

    What's wrong with Rob Davis? The article said he's definitely nearing retirement age. What's the "retirement age" for a Long Snapper?

    Ted Thompson's coaching moves

    For whatever it's worth: "Notebook: Who'll coordinate offense? McCarthy, Thompson aren't saying much about candidates By Pete Dougherty [email protected] It's unclear whether Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy is seriously considering going outside the...

    Ted Thompson's coaching moves

    Whichever way, I think its fairly clear that TT is involved with the coaching moves that the team makes, whether simply as a stamp of approval, or as a sounding board to the HC or even in a more active capacity. Perhaps had this thread been titled "Packers coaching moves" we might have had...

    Thompson, McCarthy start it up again

    I dont want to take away from the wins against the Bears this season and Seattle last season. Those games brought back memories of not so long ago when winning was the norm and losing a game was the exception. Nevertheless I think a realistic assessment of those wins lies in what you have...

    If it was one move it was AJ Hawk.

    A subtle change in the D?

    Try this Z2C, you go to work tomorrow to find that someone who was part of your team and reported to you has been promoted to become your boss (or your boss's right hand man). Either Sanders is the right man to run the defense or he isnt. MM needs to stop *****footing and decide which it is.

    A subtle change in the D?

    I thought the Philbin move was great but the Moss move suggests a lack of experience on MM's part. As a result of this I cant help but wonder how motivated Sanders is going to be, Moss while naturally excited by the promotion sounds confused, "Whenever (McCarthy) needs to bounce something...

    Packers might choose Hackett

    "Jets fans remember Paul Hackett as the offensive coordinator blamed for just about everything that went wrong. Well, he might be back calling plays, this time in Green Bay. Hackett, 59, gave head coach Mike McCarthy his first break in coaching when he hired him as an assistant at the University...

    Looking for Packer People

    If I'm not mistaken, TT first used the term when explaining/introducing MM as the new HC, thereafter MM began using it too. The other terms TT used frequently along with 'packer people' were 'tough', 'no-nonsense', 'blue-collar', 'great references', 'links to the Packer organisation.' Not...

    PICK OF THE LITTER

    Manuel missed most of the pre-season. If he was the guy supposedly masterminding the secondary on the field, perhaps that explains the slow start to the season.
