I believe, if you actually pay attention, you will notice that the problem lies more with the OL than the RBs as far as the less-than-stellar run game is concerned. A lot of youth that has still not come together as we had hoped for this season.
Yeah, that pesky TT!! Stellar drafts; excellent acquisition of select FAs...and do not sell short the impact that the FAs he has signed have had on this team.....;an unflinching unwillingness to throw money at names that typically do not live up to their pay; fiscal responsibility; improved overall team play; and responsible for hiring of one of the hottest young coaches in the league.
What a bastard for saddling us with THAT!!
Stellar drafts and excellent acquisition of FA's?
FA's - how hard is it to decide to sign Charles Woodson and Pickett, who if im not mistaken was the to tackling DT in the entire NFL the year before coming to Green Bay.
Drafts - I dont know of any of his draft picks that has turned a superstar or pro bowler. Yes, some of them are pretty good players but lets not get ahead of ourselves. He basically threw away round 1 and 2 of the draft this year.
Jury is still out on this. Lets wait before we start greasing up our lips.
Hard hard is it to decide? You think this is madden or something? You don't just 'decide' to do it bro, you have to have the means and the know how to pull the deal off man.
I do know this, we had the means and knew how to get Randy Moss and keep Javon and get a stud RB this offseason. We DECIDED not to do either. Now we have Greg Jennings and James Jones who can NOT out jump defensive backs on jump balls like a few we had last week. Now we have as i knew it would be, running back by committee and take a wait and see approach as to which of the mediocre rbs will emerge.
Moss or Javon on our team would make us the favorite to come out of the NFC. Without them, i doubt we can beat the Cowboys in the playoffs if they are at their best and we are at our best. Im not saying i dont like JJ and Jennings. They are Packers and i love them of course even when run the wrong routes because of inexperience, drop balls and fumble twice in a row.
He got our defense set for a while. He got 2 decent receivers to build with. The team is young and is nowhere near their potential. I just wanted a better replacement for Poopinga, Moss, vet RB, TE, safety.
Bigby has emerged and our TE's have done more than fine.
I hope to hell TT proves me wrong. By the way, just because i am critical of a move TT makes or fails to make doesnt mean i dont want him here.
Other than 4 or 5 things, i think he has done a perfect job.
Im a perfectionist, sue me
