[Heyjoe4]

This reminds me of why I had you on ignore for 6 months.

You never should have taken me off Ignore. LOL

just because you can… does not mean you should. You usually have better self control. I am in no way saying I agree with him, but if he chose to delete his own comment because he thought better of it… why would you feel like reposting it is better for the forum?

You seem to think you're the mods police. How is that better for the forum? Or does it just make you feel smug?

I didnt know it would show.. I truly never did that

Agree. I'm too forgiving.

Could have sent me a pm.

I wondered about that … which is why I said it was out of character…

I probably should have… but I was responding to something posted in the open forum…. so I guess a Pm didn’t occur to me.

And you seem to think because someone made you a forum moderator that somehow your opinion matters more. Enjoy yourself lol.

I think I prefer Lazard sit out week 1. It will force Rodgers to throw to more talented receivers.

Thanks for the update Cap on the Packers success in MN with Lombardi. Old age is setting in and associated memory loss.... I swear though the Packers had one season back in the 60s when they were 11-1 (I think they only played 12 games.). If I weren't so lazy I'd research it.

The Packers were 13-1 in 1962 with their only loss coming at Detroit.

As a side note, they were only 4-3 at home vs. the Vikings under Lombardi, losing three of their last four against them.

If Lazard can't play, it won't be a huge loss.

I disagree as well, Lazard was expected to be a starting wide receiver in a group lacking overall talent.

With respect, he's a #3WR and he's not light years ahead of anybody. His year will not be defined by playing like a #3. I'm anxious to see if he can step up. We all know what he's done in the past, he's a dependable 3rd option for Rodgers. He has to play much, much better than that and no one has seen it. If he misses the first game, he starts to run the risk of being stuck where he is.

While Lazard might be at best the #3 wide receiver on most other teams he's higher on the depth chart with the Packers entering the season.

I think I prefer Lazard sit out week 1. It will force Rodgers to throw to more talented receivers.

Unfortunately I'm not convinced the Packers have more talented receivers on their roster.

If nothing else, without Lazard in the lineup, we're going to find out just how talented all these newbies are, and how effective Rodgers can be with them, considering their lack of playing time together.

This is when not playing with each other in preseason could show it's ugly head.

We'll see about Lazard. He's decent out of the slot, he can block, and he usually hangs on to the ball. I don't see Adams departure magically making him a true #1 WR (1,000 yds, 10 TDs, etc.).

A lot of us would like him to step up into that role, I just have my doubts. Watkins might do it because he's done it before.

Either way, I don't think Lazard's presence has an outsized impact on the game. I hope I'm wrong. I just don't see him as more than a 500 yard, 5 TD kind of guy.

And thanks for the 60s update. I don't know how good Detroit was in 62. Probably not very god but they ruined a 14-0 regular season. I didn't realize they played 14 games then.

I need a clarification from you. Yesterday you posted Lombardi was 7-0 against the Vikings. Today it sounds like 4-3. which is it? Or what was Lombardi's overall record v. the Vikings?

I'm afraid you're right. We all remember last year's miserable opener. That was with Adams and MVS. Don't need another opening conference loss, especially against the Vikes.

Forgiveness is a good trait Pike.

Says the one that blocks someone that literally said nothing personal, attacking or disrespectful. Thanks for the laugh Joe.

Not at all. My opinions are just like everyone else. Opinions.

Let's talk about Allen Lazard...

Did the Packers make a trade for some talented receivers?
