Predictions: Packers vs. Falcons

Shawn: I’ve said all year the Green Bay Packers would win this week’s game, and if anything, I believe even more strongly in that prediction now. The Atlanta Falcons are 8-2, sure. Everyone seems to have forgotten that they beat the Saints after Garrett Hartley missed two easy field goals that would have won the [...]

Look For Bishop To Get New Contract

Green Bay Packers linebacker Desmond Bishop finally got his chance to start and he’s making the most of it. Bishop has outperformed Nick Barnett, who he replaced in the starting lineup after Barnett’s season-ending wrist injury, by a wide margin. So far this season, Bishop has 54 tackles, two sacks, a forced fumble, and an [...]

And Here Comes Atari Bigby’s Next Injury Problem

Green Bay Packers safety Atari Bigby has aggravated the hamstring injury that landed him on the physically unable to perform list, which perfectly follows his pattern. By most accounts, Bigby is a decent safety, when he can stay on the field. Unfortunately, he can’t stay on the field very often. In addition to missing the [...]

More He Said, She Said Between Favre and Sterger

Let’s talk settlement. Let’s talk Brett Favre paying Jenn Sterger a large sum of money to not speak to the NFL about allegations he texted her photos of his johnson. Sterger’s camp says Favre’s camp offered them a settlement prior to the allegations being published. Favre’s camp says Sterger’s camp reached out to them several [...]

Jennings Is NFC Player Of The Week

In what seems to be pretty much a weekly occurrence, a member of the Green Bay Packers will be handed an NFC Player of the Week award. This time, receiver Greg Jennings will get the offensive award. Jennings had seven catches for 152 yards and three touchdowns in the Packers rout of the Minnesota Vikings, [...]

Jennings’ Increased Production Directly Related To Finley’s Demise

Green Bay Packers receiver Greg Jennings is playing some outstanding football of late. In the last five games, Jennings has 32 receptions for 520 yards and six touchdowns. Those are pretty nice numbers, especially when compared to his first five games — 14 receptions for 183 yards and three touchdowns. Additionally, Jennings’ targets have increased [...]

Deanna “Keen” To Divorce Brett

I know. Enough about the Minnesota Vikings and Brett Favre. Sorry, but I have to slip this one in before we get down to the business of the Green Bay Packers and Atlanta Falcons. And it really shouldn’t come as a surprise. Deanna Favre is said to be keen to divorce Brett if the allegations [...]

Thank You, Al Harris

As far as I’m concerned, Al Harris will always be a member of the Green Bay Packers. Although Harris no longer fit into the Packers’ plans, much like Aaron Kampman before him, Harris took the time to make one last gesture for the fans. In Sunday’s Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Harris took out a full-page ad [...]

Green Bay Packers: Coach Killers

The Green Bay Packers have played two games in the past three weeks. Both head coaches of the Packers’ opponents in those games have now been fired a day after the Packers completely humiliated their teams. The Dallas Cowboys Wade Phillips was the first casualty. The Minnesota Vikings Brad Childress is now the second. Odd, [...]

Here’s What’s Wrong With The Vikings

Well, let’s be honest. There are a lot of things wrong with the Minnesota Vikings, which has us in Green Bay pretty much ecstatic. We really don’t have the time or the will to list everything here. The Vikings suck and they can rot in fucking hell. During Sunday’s 31-3 dismantling at the hands of [...]

They Can’t Do Anything Right In Minnesota

Posted in Minnesota Vikings | 10 comments

Yeah, I know. We’re piling it on the Minnesota Vikings, but if their fans weren’t such a bunch of ignorant, loud-mouthed shitfucks, well, we probably would have already moved on. My point is, they deserve every last kick we’re going to give them while they’re down. They’ve worked hard to earn it. So, the Vikings [...]

My Bet: Brett Favre Hangs It Up Before The Season Ends

Posted in Brett Favre, Minnesota Vikings | 11 comments

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre said he wanted to go home and “re-evaluate” after losing to the Green Bay Packers 31-3, on Sunday. What re-evaluate means exactly, Favre didn’t say. Of course, there’s speculation Favre may hang it up before the season ends and with good reason. The Vikings are all but mathematically eliminated from [...]

Stick A Fork In The Minnesota Vikings

I think we can all agree, thanks to the Green Bay Packers, we can stick a fork in the Minnesota Vikings. They’re dead. Their season is officially over after the Packers thoroughly dominated them and old man Brett Favre in a 31-3 victory at the Metrodome. None of us thought it would be as easy [...]

Peprah, Bigby Will Split Snaps

Charlie Peprah will remain the Green Bay Packers starting strong safety, but it appears it’s only a title. Despite playing some outstanding football of late, that apparently isn’t enough to keep Atari Bigby, who saw his first action of the season against the Dallas Cowboys, off the field. Nope. The Packers have come up with [...]

Sarah: Round two of Brett Favre vs. the Green Bay Packers unfolds Sunday afternoon at the Metrodome. The first round ended with a defeated old man limping off Lambeau Field following a 28-24 loss. Will anything be different this time around? Probably not. The Minnesota Vikings’ season has been a letdown, to say the least. [...]

The Chicago Bears Might, Kinda Be For Real

No one has really taken the Chicago Bears seriously this year, particularly in these parts. In fact, they only beat the Green Bay Packers because the Packers handed them the game on a silver platter with a team-record 18 penalties, terrible special teams play, and poor coaching decisions by Mike McCarthy. Still, a win is [...]

Dom Capers A Head Coach? I Don’t Think So

Posted in Dom Capers | 11 comments

Nothing against Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Dom Capers, but the guy isn’t an NFL head coach, despite the support he seems to be garnering around Green Bay. On Wednesday, Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Capers was worthy of a head coaching job. I respectfully disagree, Mike. Capers is a great defensive coordinator, something he [...]

Clay Matthews: Don’t Touch The Hair

Oh, wait. It was Tony Manero who uttered, “Don’t touch the hair!” Green Bay Packers linebacker Clay Matthews may be saying it next, though. We first heard about Matthews’ desire for some sort of hair-related endorsement deal prior to the Packers thrashing of the Dallas Cowboys in an interview with Bob Costas. At the time, [...]

You’re Welcome, Mike Neal

Like a lot of people, I openly wondered why the hell the Green Bay Packers drafted a defensive end in the second round of this year’s draft. The Packers’ defensive line looked to be one of the strengths of the team, at the time. The team seemingly had more pressing needs at other positions, as [...]

Shields Will Be One Of League’s Top Corners

Posted in Sam Shields | 6 comments

In some circles — namely, mine — Green Bay Packers rookie cornerback Sam Shields has already been labeled a future starter with the potential to be a star. Shields, who has tremendous speed, has improved by leaps and bounds since coming to the Packers as an undrafted free agent out of Miami, where he played [...]
