    2011- Green Bay's 6 Indespensible Players

    -Your 1st Point is 100% right. The discovery of Shields is really what put GB over the top (along with the development of Tramon). Without Shields there is no Base Nickel Defense and no Woodson acting as a Wild Card doing awesome stuff. -As to your 2nd Point, a kicker of Crosby's "ability" are...

    2011- Green Bay's 6 Indespensible Players

    People rag on Bush because he gets torched almost anytime he is on the field playing Defense. Maybe he is an All Pro in practices but it does not translate to Sunday's. People understand in a perfect world that he would only play Special Teams, but knowing he is only 1 injury away from...

    2011- Green Bay's 6 Indespensible Players

    I considered Clifton #7 but suspect they could get by now that they have options at tackle, although it would definitely be an adventure for a while. Between Sherrod, Lang, and Bulaga they have much better options than they did in 2009. I think without any single receiver we are still good...

    2011- Green Bay's 6 Indespensible Players

    Going Into the Season, here are the players who I would call Indespensible as well as how Indespensible they are by Ranking: 1. Rodgers 2. Matthews-When he is Off the Field the Pass Rush Vanishes 3. Tramon-His ability to cover #1's is Huge, an injury would limit would Woodson could do and...

    guy on fb saying matt ryan is a better qb than rodgers...

    Some of what that guy says is ridiculous, For Example: -Most people knew Turner was going to be good, that is why he was signed to a big contract -I almost fell out of my chair when he called McCarthy a Great Offensive Mind. Look how many times last year the Offense was held to 14 or fewer...

    Would losing a game early be good for us?

    I would say absolutely not. A loss before the playoffs I sometimes like but not early in the season. The other question is whether GB is better off losing so they can play in the playoffs in domes/warm weather as opposed to outdoors at Lambeau

    Packers not in Canton

    1-Peak performance almost universally refers to someone's performance over 1 year. For example you might hear "Brett Favre Peaked in 1996" but would NEVER hear "Brett Favre peaked in Game 75 of his career" or "Favre peaked during pass 3,103 of his career" 2-Timmy Smith does not even hold the...

    Packers not in Canton

    You seem to be misunderstanding my point. The 2010 Jets, 2009 Vikings, and 2007 Patriots have nothing to do with the discussion. My argument has absolutely nothing to do with Free Agency vs Drafting. I also am not talking about "talent" either so I am not sure why you mention Ryan Leaf and...

    Mason Crosby sucks

    As great as Thompson is, I think he struggles with cutting players that he drafted (Harrell for example), whether it is arrognace of not wanting to admit to being wrong, or because he is sentimental or about his players, or some unknown reason. Crosby is definitely below average and is...

    Packers not in Canton

    Yes Javon Walker was better than Donald Driver. His peak value was far better than Driver's. To me, the question when it comes to the HOF to determine if someone should make it is: "If my Life Depended on the Outcome of 1 Game and I am choosing my team, would this player be deserving of a...

    Packers not in Canton

    (Off the top of my head and just looking at recent players people talk about rther than going through decades worth of inductees) There are many stat padders who either are in or are expected to be in: -Curtis Martin-Stat Padder -Jerome Bettis-Stat Padder -Art Monk-Stat Padder -Chris...

    Packers not in Canton

    Sterling Sharpe and LeRoy Butler should both be in the HOF. Personally, I prefer judging players at their peak rather than rewarding above average stat padders who play for a long time (I would also argue Terrell Davis should be inducted). -Sharpe was a 3 Time 1st Team All Pro and 5 Time...

    Biggest concern this season

    McCarthy is absolutely brutal with clock Management. His clock management and tactics are so bad that even National Media criticize him for his errors. Bill Simmons and Michael Lombardi do not even closely follow GB and even they are well aware of his blunders. His decisions either directly lose...

    Biggest concern this season

    Here are my main concerns (other than injuries since that is salways a concern) 1. McCarthy. His clock management and in game decisions are brutal. His clock management blunders lose multiple games per year. He also gets too conservative with a lead. His terrible play calling for example...
