Re: Brian Gutekunst says the Packers need to 'ramp up our sense of urgency'
I would think that if Gutekunst believed he needed to exhibit a sense of urgency as General Manager then the Packers would not currently trail all 31 other NFL teams when it comes adding external talent to their roster, especially given that at least five players in Myers, Wilson, Stokes, Ballentine...

Re: Brian Gutekunst says the Packers need to 'ramp up our sense of urgency'
I don't know how reliable the guy who wrote the article is but he says " Green Bay has made the fewest external additions (2) in the entire NFL " so far this offseason. I mean we went into one of the poorest Free Agent classes with a team that already had like 46 players under contract (o...

Re: Brian Gutekunst says the Packers need to 'ramp up our sense of urgency'
As previously stated, watching GM Brian Gutekunst end his post-season press conference on January 16, by forthrightly stating the Packers need to "ramp up our sense of urgency", I got the distinct impression he was not referring to his own role with the team. Two months later, and with fre...

Re: Brian Gutekunst says the Packers need to 'ramp up our sense of urgency'
This was APB's exact quote: I think you misinterpret what APB is saying. APB clearly believes Gutekunst wants to get better with more than just the players we currently have. You seem to believe signing 1 or 2 bigger free agents wouldn't be a major change for Gutekunst because he already did that. ...

Re: Green Bay Packers’ News - 2025
The other reason I don't hate this as much as it feels like I should is because I don't have much faith in our ability to hire a good st coach. We are more likely to hire a Drayton or Menenga than a Rizzi. Could have had Rizzi too but the Packers were too cheap and offered him a below market deal. ...

Re: Brian Gutekunst says the Packers need to 'ramp up our sense of urgency'
What major changes to the way he operates would you suggest or even what major changes can be implemented? APB indicated “major changes” were planned from Gutekunst this offseason, thus I asked him what, if any, major changes he anticipated on Gutekunst’s part. I do not anticipate any major changes...

Re: Brian Gutekunst says the Packers need to 'ramp up our sense of urgency'
That was my first impression as well, that Gutekunst thinks there needs to be greater urgency among the players next season. I am unsure how that ramped up player urgency is supposed to come about. I also did not get the impression Gutekunst felt that he needed to ramp up his own urgency as the tea...

Re: Brian Gutekunst says the Packers need to 'ramp up our sense of urgency'
I think there are a couple related thought lines going here. 1) I think Gutekunst recognizes the roster underperformed and they had some discipline issues with sloppy play. The message is these guys are professionals and need to be better. Starts with Love and runs down the entire roster. 2) I thin...

Brian Gutekunst says the Packers need to 'ramp up our sense of urgency'
Just catching up on end of the season discussions and press conferences. I am curious what the collective braintrust thinks about GM Brian Gutekunst's comment about the Packers needing to ramp up their urgency in 2025. He alluded to “some of these guys have now proven themselves to be NFL football p...

Re: Changes to Make
I am apparently in the minority who is not all that down on Jordan Love's performance this season. Don't get me wrong, I don't think he progressed much if at all in 2024 but I still see a lot of promise in his game. That said, I am apparently also an outlier when it comes to how good the wide recei...

Re: Packers Defense - 2024
Overall, I was pleased with Jeff Hafley's first season as the Defensive Coordinator. The D was far more aggressive and, other than the game ending gaffe against the Bears in week 18, far better coached than it was under Joe Barry. The Safety/slot position was much better and has much more talent wit...

Re: Have An Idea For Ya
In 2024, the Packers stayed YOUNG. The Packers also stayed COMPETITIVE. And, once again, the Packers are staying HOME FOR THE SUPER BOWL. I hope and pray that Ed Policy demands some changes, but I fully expect to see the Packers continue to operate just as they have over the past decade plus. Oh wel...

Re: Have An Idea For Ya
I am very interested to see what Policy's approach is to the General Manager vis-a-vis Head Coach reporting structure.
