Door Open for Favre to Return

Brett Favre

From the files of The Story, And Person, That Just Wouldn’t Go Away comes the nugget that one Brett Lorenzo Favre has gained his release from the New York Jets, clearing the way for him to sign with any NFL team should he decide to unretire… again. So, let’s say Favre gets the itch to [...]

Final Word On The Packers Draft, For Now

Today is the day that everyone and their mother hand out draft grades. Well, grading a draft class immediately after said draft is bullshit. No one can adequately grade a draft class for at least three years. These players haven’t been on the field yet. They haven’t seen the playbook. They haven’t met their teammates. [...]

Packers Draft for Need, Select Raji

B.J. Raji

The Green Bay Packers selected defensive tackle B.J. Raji with the No. 9 selection in the NFL draft, taking a player to beef up one of the team’s major deficiencies. In the process, they bypassed a guy with top-five talent in Texas Tech wide receiver Michael Crabtree. The move was surprising in that Packers GM [...]

Thompson to Trade Back? Again?

Knowshon Moreno at No. 23?

Knowshon Moreno at No. 23? Weeks – no, months of analysis and speculation culminate tomorrow when the 2009 NFL Draft begins. You have to hand it to the NFL – no other professional league has turned their draft process into such an anticipated event. I toyed with the idea of posting a complete mock draft, [...]

Michael Crabtree, Larry English, Tyson Jackson Enter the Fray

Larry English

As we mentioned yesterday, Pro Football Weekly’s Nolan Nawrocki predicted the Green Bay Packers would land Texas Tech wide receiver Michael Crabtree with the No. 9 pick in this weekend’s NFL Draft. First, Crabtree is a phenomenal talent, racking up 1,165 yards in 2008 and an astounding 1,962 in 2007. He’s a physical specimen at [...]

Raji, Smith Favorites For Packers In NFL Draft

Andre Smith

The NFL Draft is this weekend, and after an inactive free agent signing period, Ted Thompson will once again employ his build-through-the-draft philosophy to help strengthen the Green Bay Packers. Said philosophy will likely make the Packers the youngest team in the NFL for the third consecutive season. The Packers have a variety of needs, [...]

2009 Packers Schedule: How It Plays Out

And off we go! Sept. 13 – Chicago Bears, (7:20 p.m.) The Jay Cutler debut [...]

The Bears Still Suck, But…

Rashied Davis

Yes, the Chicago Bears still suck, even after their much-hyped acquisition of quarterback Jay Cutler. However, it looks as if the Bears are doing their best to change this phenomenon (sucking) that has grasped their organization since its inception. Even though the Bears nabbed Cutler from the Denver Broncos last week, and have a potential [...]

Aaron Rodgers – A Man After My Own Heart

A-Rod!

From the Aaron Rodgers is The Man Files, comes the news that the Green Bay Packers main man is really the man in more ways than one. Now, it should be no secret that I enjoy the company of a woman, or several women, as it were (a very close second to the Green Bay [...]

Lovie Gets A New Toy: How Bernard Pollard Screwed The Packers

Jay Cutler

Personally, I think the NFL blogosphere needs more paranoid conspiracy theories and superstition. With this article, TotalPackers.com will try to do just that – I will examine a fascinating chain reaction of retarded events that may culminate in the Chicago Bears becoming relevant once again, much to the chagrin of my beloved Green Bay Packers.
