Uh, Moron – didn’t we spend a ton of money on Finley last year when we could have signed a solid offensive lineman instead? If they are so sold on Finley, why keep 17 tight ends on the roster? This Just in: Finley leads the packers in dropped passes and talking trash about our best player. Finally, you made my point for me: Best Player in the NFL on our team and it is somehow not important to protect him. But, thank god we will have Raji and Jennings so they can not play, wear jump suits on the sidelines and do lame ass commercials when the season starts.

So, sign “above average”defensive lineman – which Raji is not, who are inajury prone and let Rodgers run for his life every week? Why sign Jennings if Rodgers can’t even get him the ball as he has no time to throw? Ted Thompson, is that you writing under the name Phatgzus? Absolutely sign Matthews, but offensive line has to be important at some point. If Rodgers gets hurt, which he is already banged up, will it matter what guys we sign if our QB is Harrell? I would rather have a blood trasfusion from Charlie Sheen than have Harrell at QB.

Some interesting stats, by way of Pro Football Focus.

Rodgers was pressured on 64% of his passes, more than any other QB in the league. When he was hurried, his passer rating was a 25.9.

So, yes, the offensive line sucks and TT should be blamed for that. (Again: What GM is perfect?)

As for the play calling… see my above comment. This is getting ridiculous.

I never understand how people get on here and spend their time attacking one another. We are all Packers fans who only one thing: the Pack to win.

Secondly, can we stop acting like whatever Monty says in posts on this blog is automatically a fact? His opinions are just that… opinions.

Starks’ average against the Lions was 3 yards per carry. Green’s average against the Lions was 3 yards per carry. I agree Starks should have gotten more carries, but it’s worth noting that they had similar numbers.

Everyone is frustrated by the runs. But, Aaron was going to get killed if he sat back their to throw the ball like usual. He was running for his life on every pass play. It was scary. Think of the bitching on this site if Rodgers would have gotten injured. Dear God.

Ted’s not that good. Let’s look at this strategy to build a team—trade down, down, down and collect more and more picks (ie. guesses) and then have young players compete for jobs. That’s all well and good the first few years to save cap space, but then you NEED to make moves up to grab IMPACT players like he did when he grabbed Matthews (which was a nice move/ outcome). The studs in the draft are obvious to anybody who studies the draft and listens to the expert analysts (not necessarily Mel Kiper). This years defensive gems in the 2013 draft are #1 Manti Te’o, MLB from Notre Dame (potential replacement for AJ Hawk think Ray Lewis, Brian Urlacher). #2 Star Lotulelei, DT Utah (potential upgrade from Raji or replacement for Pickett think Haloti Ngata here).

Don’t worry about receivers to replace Jennings either, this draft is loaded with playmakers at RB and WR. I’ll give you a few names we should consider (Quinton Patton, Robert Woods, Terrence Williams at WR or how about Joseph Randle or Johnathan Franklin at RB for starters). We also desperately need a blue chip interior linemen and I think that’s what they’ll end up addressing in RD #1 (see Barrett Jones or Chance Warmack from Alabama).

For the most part I can’t stand packattack but fuck that highlight vid of the Atlanta game opened my eyes… This o looks nothing like that one. Rodgers always knew where to go with the ball. The last 5 games he has looked rattled and very indecisive. Get back to 5 wides next week with Jennings back, start throwing the back shoulder, stop with te 50/50 shit and start kicking people’s fuckin asses!!!

Um, Cincy may be a better team than us right now…they are certainly much more balanced on both sides of the ball. With the law firm running the ball, stingy defense and a QB with a better QBR and better array of young weapons to throw to.

Ted’s inept drafting once again rears its ugly head and the Packer faithful holds its collective breath hoping that the League MVP will be enough to carry them to another Super Bowl. Well guess what? Not gonna happen…another wasted year may soon be upon us. Where’s our MJD, Ray Rice, Adrian Peterson, Doug Martin, Ahmad Bradshaw, etc.? Where’s our Logan Mankins, Chris Myers, Ryan Kalil, Joe Thomas? Where’s our Jason Pierre Paul, JJ Watt, Ray Lewis, Brian Urlacher, Ed Reed, etc. etc. etc.?

Who do we have? Alex Fucking Green?! Who else? TJ fucking Lang? Who else? Mike Fucking IR Neal? C’mon people it’s time to hold the GM accountable. Wasted fucking years are the WORST! I seriously could do a better job than this guy (Ted).
