The Packers’ Linebacker Brouhaha
Jun 2nd
Much is being made of the Green Bay Packers linebacker situation this offseason. The transition to the 3-4 defense of Dom Capers has forced several Packers’ players to make position changes, and it has left the two outside linebacker spots up for grabs in training camp. Although I would hardly suggest the Packers are set [...]
Driver Pissed. Kampman Silent. Tramon Rich. Harrell Healthy?
May 29th
Gettin’ paid, bitch! All of this came out on the first day of the Green Bay Packers’ OTAs, which, for the uninitiated stands for organized team activities. OTAs are basically a way for coaches to get the team together and start practice before the NFL officially allows them to start practice. OTAs are not mandatory, [...]
It’s All Part Of The Plan
Mar 14th
The NFL’s annual spending orgy that we call free agency has pretty much come and gone. Predictably, a large contingent of Green Bay Packers fans have been lamenting the fact that, yet again, GM Ted Thompson failed to sign a single average player to a multi-million dollar contract. Coming off an utterly disappointing season, the [...]
Free Agency 2009: Our Guys
Feb 16th
The 2009 free agency signing period begins on February 27 and the Green Bay Packers are in very good shape, at approximately $25 million below the projected $123 million salary cap.

Aaron Kampman to OLB
Feb 3rd
Green Bay Packers coach Mike “Smartest Guy in the Room” McCarthy confirmed (sort of) Aaron Kampman will be moving from defensive end to outside linebacker in new defensive coordinator Dom Capers 3-4 defense, today. “Well, it depends on what personnel we have on the field. When we line up in the first base defense, yeah, [...]
Dom Capers and the 3-4 – A Good Fit?
Jan 20th
After an unprecedented purge of defensive coaching staff, after much hemming and hawing and after much speculation, the Green Bay Packers have settled on former Houston Texans coach Dom Capers as their new defensive coordinator. I’m not sure how I feel about this. On one hand, I like the hire. Dom Capers brings the type [...]
The Packers Are Dead, Long Live The Packers
Dec 1st
With yet another heartbreaking 4 points-or-less loss, the Green Bay Packers have all but assured that the playoffs will be out of their reach, with their 35-31 defeat at the hands of the Carolina Panthers. The Packers don’t deserve it this year, not this coaching staff, not this underachieving group of players. But it’s hard [...]
Packers vs. Seahawks Quick Notes
Oct 13th
I’d be a lot more excited about the Green Bay Packers 27-17 win over the Seattle Seahawks if I didn’t already know that Seattle is truly an awful team. But as they say in Cliche Town, “a win is a win.” THE GOOD Aaron Rodgers is still playing well. On top of that, his shoulder [...]
