It sure has been an odd few weeks leading up to training camp. Especially in Minnesota where wide receiver Greg Jennings has been telling anybody who will listen how happy he is to be out of Green Bay. Apparently the … Continue reading →

One nice thing that comes with losing ugly in the playoffs two years in a row is that expectations for the Packers from the national media are not nearly as high. I have seen a few pick the Packers to … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers improved their team the only way they know how this weekend and Packers’ fans know that is through the draft. General manager Ted Thompson wheeled and dealed is way to 11 picks in a draft that … Continue reading →

I can’t say I’m happy with the start, but after week one I think the 2013 Green Bay Packers’ schedule is one of the best I’ve ever seen. At least in the way it looks on paper. The fact that they don’t … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers will enter the 2013 season ranked behind teams like the San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks and the Atlanta Falcons. It was just three years ago the Packers were basking in the glory of the Lombardi Trophy, … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers and general manager Ted Thompson are always stressing the importance of “doing what’s best for the long run”. What exactly does that mean? It kind of contradicts the “we’re only here to win Super Bowls” edict we always … Continue reading →

Ted Thompson’s stingy ways continued today as the Packers were quiet as a mouse at the beginning of free agency, leaving teams like the 49ers and Seahawks light years ahead of them going into next year. Even the Chicago Bears … Continue reading →

Since the Packers’ season ended in such a disappointing way three weeks ago, the voice of the fans and media seem to indicate that if the Packers are not going to waste the career of Aaron Rodgers, they need to … Continue reading →

Green Bay Packers’ head coach Mike McCarthy got noticeably upset when asked today if defensive coordinator Dom Capers will be back next season. Unless this is the vote of confidence that sometimes comes before the firing, Capers is his man. So … Continue reading →

6:58 PM:  What time is it? Game time! 7:29 PM:  Welcome to the playoffs Colin Kaepernick! Sam Shields for the pick six! That certainly qualifies as a fast start. Stop them again and let Rodgers get to work. 7:36 PM:  49ers … Continue reading →

I know I am the worst game day blogger in the history of the world. Last week was a perfect example. I have a major problem with getting so negative the first time a play goes against the Packers. As … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers return to Candlestick Park for a playoff game once again and once again it has the makings of a classic game. Two dynamic quarterbacks, two balanced offenses and two good defenses. What more can you ask … Continue reading →

7:05 PM:  Game time. Quarterback change doesn’t change my gut feeling, might only make it worse. 7:09 PM:  First mistake made by the Packers was not taking the ball. McCarthy is an idiot. At home, the playoffs, and you kick … Continue reading →

I wish I could say confidence is high. I really wish I could. But gut feeling tells me the Green Bay Packers, built for a dome, are going to struggle again in their home playoff game against the Vikings tomorrow. … Continue reading →

If the Green Bay Packers are going to stop Adrian Peterson and the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday it may take a herculean effort like the Packers put on Barry Sanders in a 1994 wildcard game. After getting ripped by Sanders … Continue reading →

3:31 PM:  Packers a little shaky on defense on the Vikings opening drive but did hold them to three. Need to step up though. Vikings made some key first downs with passes. Can’t let that happen. Hard enough to stop … Continue reading →

While I have heard many people, including some Packers like Charles Woodson say the Packers would be better off not getting a bye in the playoffs, I don’t buy it and they shouldn’t be selling it. To not get a … Continue reading →

12:08 PM:  Good defensive stand but the offense could only get one first down. DuJuan Harris starting at running back. Randall Cobb probably should have caught the third-down pass that ended the drive. Off we go. 12:21 PM:  Much better … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers may be 10-4 and NFC North Division champs, but only one person I know of thinks the Packers are one of the top teams in the NFC. Other than Tony Dungy, everybody considers the Packers just … Continue reading →

2:27 PM:  If the Packers lose this game we know why. Missin’ Crosby is a joke. No worries though, the Packers should be able to beat Tennessee and Minnesota to win the division. 2:32 PM:  Well, the Packers can still … Continue reading →

It didn’t take long for the animosity between the Packers and Bears to come flowing out. Bears’ wide receiver Brandon Marshall, who only caught two of his 101 balls against the Packers back in September when the Packers dominated the … Continue reading →

7:32 PM:  Not at the game tonight. Worried that the Packers have so much to gain tonight that they blow it. Lions off to a good start. 7:42 PM:  80 yards in 12 plays and the Lions take a 7-0 … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers are getting in the habit of apologizing for the way they are winning games. Fellas’ – no apology necessary. This is the National Football League, there are no real cupcakes in this league. A win is … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers control the NFC North right now, even though they are a game behind the Bears. Win all five and win the division. Win the next four will probably secure a wildcard at least. It starts today … Continue reading →

One is almost at a loss for words to describe the kind of beating the Packers took in New York last night. Almost, that is. The way the Giants toyed with the Packers and the Packers’ lack of response is … Continue reading →
