Id rather bring Tim Couch back for a chance at the back-up job.

I think T Jackson would be a good pickup for the Packers. He is fast and has the footwork to be an NFL quarterback, but he lacks in accuracy. What is the Packers coaching staff specialize in? They improve quarterbacks like none other. The Pack could tweak his game and teach him the right way in no time. Maybe some forget that the Packers have the best quarterback school in the NFL. Something to think about anyways…

Minnesota takes our cast offs and re-treads – NOT the other way around. This would be just wrong on so many levels.

Since the Packers had Matt Flynn just last year, I think TT knows what a good back up QB looks like.

Yeah, TJax is an option, just like jail is an option if you don’t want to work.

Memo to Ted Thompson (Packer’s GM): Check out the New England Patriots. That’s what an ‘improved’ pass rush looks like and that’s what a really good ‘backup QB’ looks like.

This guy is better than Graham Harrell any day of the week. He can at least make NFL throws. Graham has looked bad in practice and in live game action. Once again, Ted & Co. will have to swallow a piece of humble pie and pick up a low rent acquisition like this one to back up Mr Rodgers. He is at least BETTER than what we have.

How old are you… you’ve never heard or seen Aaron Brooks play for the Packers?

In 1999, Brooks began his career as a third-string backup to Brett Favre behind second-string quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, taking no snaps during the regular season.

Little known fact… His younger cousins are Michael Vick and Marcus Vick.

An answer website had this as well.

In 1955 Charlie “Choo Choo” Brackins became the fourth black quarterback to play in an NFL game when he played in the closing minutes for the Green Bay Packers in a blowout game against Cleveland on October 23,1955.
