From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
I have his actual game worn jersey. #11 Visitors jersey. super clean because he hardly wore it.
Made New Berlin, WI by Rippon. The game issued jerseys are the nicest uniforms to wear plus I now have a jersey that I don't really care about the name on the back.
I kick myself because I had an opportunity to get a #11 Green Chastin West jersey and turned it down because it was "too expensive". These things are really hard to find and I have been chasing ever since.
I remember going BIG on Clowney’s success/failure being a main determining factor in the team’s outlook after passing on Randy Moss. Like he could either become the speed and deep threat option I felt we needed and we’d be fine, or he wouldn’t and we’d suffer.
I actually don’t recall if we suffered from his failure but it seemed to matter to me a lot at the time :dunno

I don't think we ever suffered too much because of Jennings. Honestly Jennings turned into that deep threat pretty quick in 2007 that we all forgot about Clowney.
I was at the Denver Jennings OT game in 2007. Honest to goodness some of the greatest 5 pure seconds of my life watching that ball hang in the high elevation right into Jennings hands.
2006 - 2010
2019 - 2021
Greatest era of Packers football for me personally. MM and MLF were such amazing hires.
I had to bring this, Fields is having a rough time in Chicago, sure the OL isn't that good, and Fields does make some bone headed decisions, but imho the biggest problem is a HC that wont take responsibility for making it harder then it has to be for his young QB, Nagy and coaches telling Fields he has a free play cause the Bucs have 12 men on the field, then blame him because the offense was not ready for a free play even though they where wrong and the Bucs only had 11 defenders and where more ready then the Bears for a quick count, coaching is the biggest problem.
I am sure being sacked 22 times in 6 games hasn't helped Fields much.

Just when Joe Flacco though he'd escaped the Jets, he gets traded back to them.
The Eagles get "a sixth-round draft pick that can become a fifth-round pick depending on Flacco’s playing time".
Gotta say I don’t quite giving up potentially a 5th for a crappy QB in the Jets situation.
I would just play a total nobody and compete for winning the top prize available to them this year...which would be the top pick in the draft.
For a team that is still rebuilding and no hopes of winning more than 4 or 5 games this year, this makes no sense at all. Jets gonna Jets. I don't get it. Just wasting draft picks.

I say it all the time. 75% of the league is run by idiots.

I remember some talk about tanking for better draft picks back in the 70's and 80's ( never thought we needed to since we usually picked top 10 anyway) but it pretty much all ended when we took Tony Manderich, why tank for picks when the FO screws up the pick anyway, it's possible the Jets FO fears tanking and failing is a worse proposition then just failing
Jackson and Hollman both off rosters and we have a gunner and a draft pick and no longer have to play Jackson or Hollman at CB and have room on the active roster for Rasul. I count that as 5 wins.
