Marshawn Lynch Could Be On Packers’ Radar
Apr 26th
If you read my previous post today, you know what I think the chances are of the Green Bay Packers actually making a move of consequence this offseason. Still, it would be remiss of me not to mention the possibility of the Buffalo Bills’ Marshawn Lynch joining the Packers. Bob McGinn did just that over [...]
Packers Get Lucky, Bulaga Falls To No. 23
Apr 22nd
With all the talk of trading up or trading down, the Green Bay Packers got lucky in the end with Iowa left tackle Bryan Bulaga falling to the team as they stood pat at No. 23. There was word earlier in the day that Packers’ GM Ted Thompson was considering trading up to grab Bulaga, [...]

Chargers’ Cromartie To Packers: Only If Price Is Right
Feb 18th
The San Diego Chargers need a running back. LaDanian Tomlinson, who will turn 31 in June, is likely to be released by the team after gaining only 730 yards and averaging 3.3 yards per carry in 2009. His backup, Darren Sproles, will be a restricted free agent. The Chargers could re-sign Sproles, but after paying [...]
Vikings Lose Los Angeles As Leverage In Stadium Battle
Jan 7th
The Minnesota Vikings lost some big-time leverage in its quest for a new stadium. The company behind the plan to lure the NFL back to Los Angeles announced Tuesday that the Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills will be the first teams it will try to relocate. Majestic Realty Co. managing partner John Semcken said the [...]
Packers Should Pursue Buffalo’s Ex-Special Teams Coach
Jan 6th
The Green Bay Packers would be foolish not to pursue ex-Buffalo Bills’ special teams coach Bobby April in the offseason. April, 56, exercised a clause in his contract Tuesday making him a free agent after the Bills organization told him Monday he and the other assistant coaches had the right to pursue other coaching jobs [...]
Cushing Wins Defensive Rookie of the Year
Jan 5th
Both Fox Sports and ESPN have reported that Houston Texans linebacker Brian Cushing has been named NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year. Cushing was a runaway winner, receiving 39 of a possible 50 votes. Buffalo Bills safety Jairus Byrd finished second with six votes, followed by Green Bay Packers linebacker Clay Matthews with three, and [...]
The Brian Brohm Era Begins Now!
Dec 22nd
Word out of Buffalo is that Green Bay Packers’ castoff and former second-round pick Brian Brohm will start at quarterback for the Bills this week. It’s not exactly a let’s-see-what-this-kid-can-do move, but more of a we-don’t-have-any-other-healthy-quarterbacks move. The Bills opening day starter, Trent Edwards, has been lost for the season with an ankle injury and [...]
Packers Give Up On Brian Brohm, QB Signs With Buffalo
Nov 19th
The Green Bay Packers have officially given up on quarterback Brian Brohm, whom general manager Ted Thompson selected with a second round pick in the 2008 NFL Draft. Brohm was signed off the Packers practice squad by the Buffalo Bills on Wednesday, and despite having an open roster slot after releasing receiver Jake Allen earlier [...]
Trade Rumors Around the NFC North
Oct 15th
The NFL trade deadline is Tuesday, and while there are very few in-season trades made in the NFL, that doesn’t stop people from speculating about what could or should happen. The Green Bay Packers have been linked to several names, but more on that in a moment. The most persistent rumor revolving around any NFC [...]
Packers vs. Bills Game Notes
Aug 23rd
The Green Bay Packers beat the Buffalo Bills 31-21 in a preseason tilt Saturday night, as the team improved to 2-0 in meaningless games. While I will again stress that no one wins anything in the preseason, Packers’ fans have some reason for excitement entering the 2009 season (which we wish would get here already). [...]
Two Words: Tarvaris Jackson
Jun 23rd
It’s the reason the Minnesota Vikings won’t win the Super Bowl, but that didn’t stop Sports Illustrated’s football guru, Dr. Z, from picking them to do just that. I offer you these two nuggets to back up my theory. 1. The Rex Grossman Theory Very few people will debate the Chicago Bears fielded a pretty [...]
