  1. I live in Wisconsin and watch a lot of Packer games during the year, almost every one. From what I've seen I can tell you we do NOT want to be the team to pay Jones. He disappears for incredibly long stretches, the only time you notice him is when he's whiffing on a potentially game-changing catch. The fans here really dislike him and would not be at all sad to see him leave the team.

  2. I definitely understand the concern with Ingram's arms, but I too am completely sold on him. Not only does he have a history of good production, but by all accounts he's a very hard worker and isn't afraid of putting the team on his back. Watch a couple interviews with him, he just looks and sounds like a true football player. Players can overcome physical deficits, but you can't teach that kind of attitude and work ethic.

  3. Our run defense was dead last in the NFL last season. Dead last. Dareus was as close to a sure thing as there was in the draft, and our front seven was by far the biggest area of need. Plus, he's shown flashes of being the dominant force that he will no doubt become. This shouldn't even be a question, imo

  4. Ask the QB who he wants in there when it comes time to pick up a blitzing linebacker. Playing the RB position is just about being able to move the ball down the field. By the way, how is CJ on those 3rd and 4th and short situations when people know he is getting the ball on a dive? Crappy, that's how

     

    How much better is Chris Johnson in the same situation? I hear he's a pretty good back despite not having a ton of power.

     

    At this point in time, I believe Fred is the better back. With the season he was having, there's no denying that. However, I also think that CJ has the higher ceiling talent wise. The kid will only get better from here on out, and i really think he has a legitimate chance of being an elite back in this league.

     

    Fred's age also scares me. As long as he continues to produce like he has, I have total faith in the guy. If we were headed to the post season then he would be the unquestioned starter. But i cant shake the feeling that by the time this team is ready for playoff contention, Fred will have lost a step or two.

  5. Harrell played out of the spread in college, and perhaps they view Brad Smith's move to WR as permanent. Or perhaps they've been underwhelmed by Thigpen.

     

    I agree, Smith has played well at WR over the past two games, and i think Chan will keep him there for the remainder of the season. He's got more speed on the outside than Naaman(who shouldn't be starting anyways), and Nelson belongs in the slot. As long as Smith continues to make plays, I think he's the one who belongs opposite of Stevie.

     

    With that established, we're left with only Thigpen backing up Fitz, who has done nothing to show he's capable of running the offense effectively, let alone winning any games. Harrell had a stellar college career, and at this point nobody knows what his future in the NFL will be. Why not try bringing him in and seeing what he's got?

  6. During the game, i was equally as pissed as all of you about this playcall. But the more I got back to it, the more I think it actually wasn't a bad idea. At that point during the game, they cowboys had proven that they could move the ball downfield on us at will. It was clear that our only chance of staying in the game was to put up points and compete in a shootout style game much like the Raiders/Pats games. Going for the endzone on 4th and 2? Why the hell not? The offense was struggling for the second week in a row, and needed some kind of spark to get going. If Jones catches that pass, who knows what it could have led to?

  7. No, no, no. Unless we trade Evans for a draft pick or OL to someone. Burress even after 2 years in jail will still be twice as good as Evans is. And I don't want to hear the out of shape thing. I work in a prison and those guys are in better shape than almost anyone I've ever been around.

     

    There's a difference between being in shape, and being in football shape. Being away from the game for two years will hurt Burress, he'll have to take some time to get re-acclimated to the NFL, especially with the lockout taking up time when mini camps would normally be going on

  8. Bring back JP Losman? LMAO wtf is wrong with some of you?!

     

    how articulate of you.

     

    Regardless of how Buddy and Chan would feel about JP, I have a hard time believing that he would want to come back to an organization that has already shown that they don't believe in him. Although with the changes in front office and coaching staff who knows.

  9. I've never seen Moss on TV except for a football game. Johnson has always been about self-promotion. I am entertained (by football players anyway) by great play and great plays. As Chad has fewer and fewer of those, he is left only with these desperate self-promoting gags (soccer, bull-riding, dancing on TV). I would rather watch Moss play any day (or Larry Fitz, etc..) than to have to wait around for the "OC" to come through with a decent play--and then have to pay for the pleasure by enduring the lame "celebration" that is sure to follow every such catch.

     

    Never understand why anyone finds that tired act "entertaining".

     

    See, i think this explains many of his off-field antics. Chad realizes that he's on the downside of his career, it's harder to make those great plays at 33 than it is at 26 or 27. To keep attention on himself and avoid being labeled as old and washed up, he goes off and rides a bull, or tries out for a soccer team. If nothing else, he's being smart with his career and keeping himself relevant for an extra couple years.

  10. You must be talking pre-crucifixtion?

     

    This...this is wonderful

     

    To be perfectly honest, I couldn't care less about Donte's diva tendencies. If he can consistently contribute on defense then I say bring him back. He's not a bad safety by any means, and this team needs talent more than anything. I'm not convinced that Searcy is gonna come in and light it up right away.

  11. Pretty much any defensive position we can pick in the first round will be an improvement over what we already have, so I'm not gonna lost any sleep over it.

     

     

    That said, I would enjoy the irony of having both Cameron Jordan and Jordan Cameron on our roster

  12. This definitely warrants a new post. "Where did Mallet go? Can you guys catch me up?"

     

    quit complaining, clearly you don't have anything better to do with your time anyways since you bothered to make that comment.

     

    And i think Mallet has a chance to be a very successful quarterback in the NFL if he gets passed all the alleged off-field issues. He's definitely the best pure passer in the draft, and with a good set of receivers his mobility won't be as big of an issue. Brady and Manning aren't exactly speed machines either.

  13. Buddy Nix Rant

     

     

    I believe the Bills first round pick will be California 3-4 defensive end Cameron Jordan. Buddy Nix has said that the Bill need at least two more 3-4 ends, and I think Jordan is a rare enough talent to take at #3. Here is a really good review of him:

     

    Cameron Jordan Review

     

    -Mike

     

    with a pick as high as ours, i don't want to get a rare enough talent. I want a full out badass Bruce Smith-esque player. Someone who can change the game every time they step on the field.

  14. I bet they said that about Brady before Bledsoe got hurt. As Jim Mora would say, "You don't know...you think you know, but you don't know"

     

    It's true that you never know, but to be fair, how many 6th or 7th round QB's ever become franchise material? If Levi Brown is leading our team on a playoff run a couple years from now, I'll gladly write you a long letter of apology
