Here's Johnny is a season-long contest with the idea being to pick the Packer who overachieves the most in the week's game. Rules below:
Papa John wrote:
Ok Ok, so it has been a convenient catch phrase for me over the past 30 some odd years. But besides that, it has inspired me to create a week-by-week segment that will involve picking 1 Packers player that will really stand out in a good way; someone who we can expect to transform into a beast, force himself through the metaphorical door jam and really rear his ugly head. You can pick anyone you wish, but just remember the bolder the pick, the better (ie, picking AR is a safe choice, but you're only likely to win if he does something historic).

Which brings me to my next topics - rules and voting:

- Each participant is allowed to pick 1 player per week. (See Amendment I)
- No two participants may pick the same player.
- Picks can be made from the time the weekly thread is posted until kickoff. Any picks made after kickoff will not be considered.
-- Amendment I:
a] If a player wishes, he/she may select the offensive line as their pick for the week. Your potential for votes depends on the performance of the entire group as a cohesive unit.
b] Individual players within the offensive line unit will still be eligible for selection before and after "offensive line" has been picked. (i.e. if someone has already chosen the Oline, Lane Taylor would remain an eligible pick)
c] The offensive line will be the only position group eligible to be picked and receive votes

- After each game, participants can place their votes for the one poster who they felt had the best pick.
- Voting session commences at the conclusion of the game and will end around mid-week.
- Each participant is allowed 1 vote per week.
- Only participants may vote and no participant may vote for him/herself.

The poster with the most votes at the time polls close (around midweek) will be that week's winner.
The poster who has won the most weeks at the end of the season will get a custom made banner for bragging rights and perhaps some additional prize (TBD).

Why am I doing this you ask?
Simple answer, really- all work and no play make Papa Johnny a dull boy. :twisted:

Cousins will sit in the pocket at times.

RASHAN GARY will get home a couple times, hopefully cause a fumble to aid in a WIN!

I think this is a Devonte Wyatt game

Cousins is always good to throw at least one pick. I'll take R. Douglas.

I’ll take Daniel Whelan. I feel like he’s going to be pivotal to flipping the field for an offense that has the 3rd most 3 and outs in the league.

MLF takes the training wheels off of AARON JONES and he is a game wrecker.

I'm taking KC. He always gets the best of Bradbury and I see him in the backfield all day. Cousins hates pressure up the middle so KC forces some errant throws.
