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.
So at HB, do they bring up Patrick Taylor or bring someone in?
The other thing is, Patrick Taylor probably can't do kick returns, and I don't want to see Malik Taylor doing it either. I wonder if Amari Rodgers would be OK at it?
Patrick is the only RB on our PS, so he makes the most sense. But I could see them bringing in someone to better fill the dual role.
I'd be hesitant on Rodgers. He's been shaky on punts and didn't do much last night to help the team's confidence in him overall.

I'd never return a kickoff the rest of the season, maybe ever
I'd think the FO will shop for a RB, do we even have one on the PS?
Now we're able to get a Wild Card weekend BYE. As Ray Nitschke howled at the offense as they took the field to hike the ball at the 32 yard line in the Ice Bowl with plenty of time remaining: DON'T LET ME DOWN.
This is the 60th anniversary of the great 1961 Packers season.

Dang, I was just bashing Kevin Hart last night (because I generally don't find him all that funny, not for anything outside of his career and content) to a couple friends and they got so mad at me and told me to give him another chance and well, the universe delivered. He is redeemed in my .
I texted them to let them know and got "that's all it took?" Obviously they don't understand the glory of both supporting the Packers and putting Steven A in his place.
My guess is Tonyan is an easier sign back now but who knows.
Gonna really need Deguara and Dafney to step up.
It will be very interesting to see how he approaches this offseason in contractual terms. Will he want a 1-year deal at mid-level salary as a prove-it, type deal? Or will the injury make him value the security of a big signing bonus and take a 3-4 year deal at moderate compensation for the security. Both perfectly rational approaches. If he picks the latter, though, it's a big win for the Packers long-term. Obviously, losing him for the year is a big loss for the packers in the nearer term, so I'm not saying it's good. Just a silver lining to a bad break.

Will be interesting to see if Deguara is in the dog house. He really blew it toward the end of the game not knowing where to line up. But both guys will be needed.
I mean we definitely already picked some guy named Tyler Davis over Bronson Kafusi to add to the active roster, so I doubt it's Kafusi time. Honestly, Kafusi is being groomed for Big Dog's blocking role and likely has no NFL future until Lewis retires. But that's fine by me.

Or maybe its Bronson Kaufusi time.
I almost forgot, Tyler Davis is on the active roster, but I don't really know anything about him other than he's on the kickoff coverage unit.
I thought Kaufusi was more of a blocking TE?

I'm starting to get on board with the Evan Engram hype. We can make his deal work. Could be a really nice Tonyan replacement.
Not me. He has a drops problem. He is not much bigger than Deguara.
I know it is out of the box, but why not let Lazard fill that role. He is 227 and lanky. Gaining 5 pounds before the playoffs should not be that big a deal. Then MVS becomes the full time WR#2.

I know Engram isn't that big, but he's much more of a receiving threat than anyone else we have on the roster. A change of scenery might be what he needs. Certainly worked wonders for a few guys we've brought in. They are not going to ask Lazard to play as much inline TE as Tonyan was playing. But now's the time to adjust in any case. Will be interesting to see what they do.
You guys are right about Kaufusi. I really know nothing about Davis.
