Longwell Knows the Role of Packers Pariah Well

Ryan Longwell

If anyone knows what Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre is going through this week as he prepares to return to Lambeau Field for the first time since signing with the purple and gold, it’s teammate Ryan Longwell. Longwell returned to Lambeau as a member of the rival Vikings in 2006 after spending his first nine [...]

Injuries May Help Packers Find Their Real Offensive Line

It’s been well documented. The Green Bay Packers have struggled on the offensive line this season. The Packers offensive linemen have given up an inordinate amount of sacks (25), committed far too many penalties and haven’t done much to help the struggling ground game. That is, until they played the Cleveland Browns last Sunday. The [...]

Jake Allen Will Be Packers Fourth Receiver

Jake Allen

The Green Bay Packers have reportedly promoted receiver Jake Allen from the practice squad. Allen, who toiled on the Packers practice squad last season as well, will replace Brett Swain as the Packers fourth receiver. Swain was placed on injured reserve this week after inuring his knee against the Cleveland Browns. With Jordy Nelson also [...]

Please, Tell Me What To Do When Brett Favre Comes To Town

Brett Favre

Opinions are like assholes — everyone has one. And this week, every asshole with a forum is going to tell you and I how we as Green Bay Packers’ fans should react to the return of Brett Favre. I’ve got news for you. I may be just another asshole with a forum, but I am [...]

Brad Childress Also a Cross Dresser

Minnesota Vikings coach Brad Childress is a lot of things. Moron. Idiot. Pedophile. Douche. Really bad head coach. Perfect representation of the Minnesota Vikings‘ franchise. He’s also a cross dresser. How do I know this? Chris Mortensen said so, Sunday morning. The following is from his Twitter stream. So coach Brad Childress dressed up like [...]

Packers Tried to Bring In Aaron Stecker

I have it from a reliable source that the Green Bay Packers tried to bring in former Ashwaubenon star Aaron Stecker for a tryout today. Unfortunately, the Packers didn’t get a chance to take a look at the former Tampa Bay and New Orleans running back/kick returner, as he had already signed with the Atlanta [...]

Packers Need A Pass Catcher

Jake Allen is an option

The Green Bay Packers are looking for a pass catcher following Monday’s news that receiver Brett Swain will have season-ending knee surgery and tight end Jermichael Finley will miss the Minnesota Vikings game with a knee sprain. With receiver Jordy Nelson out a couple more weeks with a knee sprain, that leaves the Packers with [...]

We Love You Brett Favre!

Actually, we only love this Brett Favre, now that he’s a member of the Minnesota Vikings. You know you’ve seen him before – many times. We’re not talking about the game-winning, gun-slinging, playing-for-the-love-of-the-game Brett Favre of Green Bay Packers lore. We’re talking about the interception-throwing, ball-dropping, can’t-quite-pull-it-out-at-the-end Brett Favre of the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings [...]

Everything Goes According to Script for Packers

This is exactly how it was supposed to play out for the Green Bay Packers. The Packers would dominate the Cleveland Browns and the Minnesota Vikings would lose on the road to the Pittsburgh Steelers, setting up a battle for first place in the NFC North next week in Lambeau Field. Technically, the Packers (4-2) [...]

Predictions: Packers vs. Browns

Josh Cribbs

Total Packers takes a look at todays’s Green Bay Packers, Cleveland Browns game and offers their predictions. Monty: The Cleveland Browns are bad, we know that. The Browns are last in the league in defense. They are second to last in offense. Their lone win was against another very bad team – the Buffalo Bills [...]

The Invisible Man: A.J. Hawk

In recent weeks, Hawk has seen his playing time severely reduced as it has grown obvious that he no longer fits into the Packers defensive scheme.
Here’s what I don’t understand…

Joan Jett Loves Two Things We Love

Joan Jett

Rock ‘n Roll and the Green Bay Packers. I wouldn’t say these things necessarily go together, but who gives a shit? Jett – who you may remember from such recordings as I Love Rock ‘N Roll, Do You Wanna Touch Me, and I Hate Myself For Loving You – recently spoke about her love for [...]

Shedding Some Light on Packers Signing of Ahman Green

Ahman Green

When the Green Bay Packers signed Ahman Green on Wednesday there was a range of responses – from “awesome!” to “what the hell?” Well, let’s get this out of the way right at the top, Green isn’t the player he was when he left the Packers via free agency to sign with the Houston Texans. [...]

Total Packers is Now on Google News

We’ve reached several milestones here at Total Packers as of late. Traffic has been consistently increasing, mostly because people like you keep coming back to read nonsense that comes out of our mouths. That’s awesome, and we sincerely thank you for reading. I’m not really one to toot my own horn because really, who cares [...]

Browns Could Use Practice Squad Against Packers

Eric Mangini

Let’s be honest, the Cleveland Browns are the NFL’s practice squad. However, they still have a game against the Green Bay Packers this Sunday and the odds of winning are looking even worse than usual for the Browns. The Browns had 12 players out with the flu on Wednesday – two of which returned to [...]

Browns Game Takes on Extra Meaning for Matthews

Clay Matthews

For Green Bay Packers rookie outside linebacker Clay Matthews, this weekend’s game against the Browns in Cleveland will be more than the cakewalk it will be for the rest of the Packers. It will be a homecoming of sorts. Matthews’ father, Clay Jr., played linebacker for 16 seasons with the Browns (1978-93) after being drafted [...]

Chad Clifton: Cheater

Remember when Green Bay Packers left tackle Chad Clifton got called for two penalties for not lining up on the line of scrimmage against the Detroit Lions, last Sunday? Evidence suggests Clifton has done this before, and may have been doing it for a while. I’m sure the Packers, their fans and Clifton will take [...]

Packers Game Against the Browns Just Got Easier

The Green Bay Packers are playing the Cleveland Browns this weekend. I thought I’d point that out because no one is really talking about the game, and with good reason. The Browns rank 31st in the league on offense, ahead of only the Oakland Raiders and superstar quarterback JaMarcus Russell, where they average 240 yards [...]

Favre Bowl II Stupidity Begins to Ramp Up

I’ve blogged before about the idiotic heights some Green Bay Packers’ fans are reaching in anticipation of Minnesota Vikings’ quarterback Brett Favre’s return to Lambeau Field on Nov. 1. In September, Chris Carriveau announced a “purification ceremony” at a “Black Sunday Event” Oct. 31, at which fans can toss their Favre Packers paraphernalia into a [...]
