but honestly does it matter who his backup is? he's the least likely starting QB to get injured and if it happens their season is over, you'd need an absolutely cupcake schedule like NE had in 08 coupled with a QB in the mid-30s or better to have a chance at being competitive when someone like him, Brady or Brees goes down

Well, if we got Boldin, then I'd be somewhat down with the Martz plan. You still need an offensive line for his shit to work, and we ain't got no first or second round picks (not that rookies on the OL would contribute much off the bat).keL wrote:i am excited.

i see 10-6, 11-5

Everyone knew that Kreutz was gonna fall off at some point - I was just living in denial. Chris Williams is the only guy that I feel good about. Everyone else is mediocre to bad. They made Forte look like crap by default, but then again, Matt doesn't make anyone miss, so he deserves some of the blame.
I see hard times in the short term. God, I hope I'm wrong and we somehow manage to shore up all these weaknesses. Maybe we'll get something out of Omiyale? Putting him at guard didn't work out too well, but he is a natural tackle.
And I'm not even gonna think about the secondary, or Urlacher's old ass, or Tommie's knees, or our lack of DE depth w/ the departure of Ogunleye and the death of Gaines Adams.

Too big of a risk anyways. Stigma of taking games off and he's never played in the 3-4 before. Add that with the fact that he's looking for Hainsworth money...National Football Post wrote: We can also scratch Green Bay as a potential home for Peppers. The Packersג defensive line coach is Peppersג former coach with the Panthers, Mike Trgovac. To put it conservatively, Trgovac is highly disliked by Peppers. I worked with Mike in 1999 with the Packers and found him to be a good person and coach, but Peppers feels differently. Heגll steer clear of Trgovac at all costs.
Giants Release Antonio Pierce
11th February, 2010 - 3:40 pm
ESPN - Antonio Pierce has been released by the Giants.
"I was shocked at first, but I'm not the one up there up in the office, and they said they felt they needed to go in another direction," Pierce told ESPN's Rachel Nichols on Thursday. "They said it wasn't my health, or the way I played, but just that -- that they were going in another direction. We left everything smooth and peaceful and I'm happy about that -- I felt like I said everything I needed to say to them. I've loved my time in New York and won't have anything but good feelings about being with this team."
Pierce said the reason he was in the New York area was to have a doctor look at the herniated disc in his neck that caused him to miss the final seven games of last season. He said the MRI was "very positive."
"I can't say I'm 100 percent yet, but with the season still six months away, I'm right where I need to be and I'm going to be fine," he said.

Life Goes on, our D will be hella suspect with Pep gone. I got a feeling he may end up in New England, especially with Bellicheck and Thomas @ odds.

Re: Official NFL Offseason Thread
But, Indy? Of all the NFL teams Indy seems to be about the worst fit for Tebow. The colts are quick reads, option routes for receivers, and plenty of deep outs all things that play to the weakness of tebow.eternalreflection wrote:kel loves TebowThaJim2 wrote:Who the hell is floating this bullshit?keL wrote:

i dont love tebow. i would trade for a late round second and have an elite qb coach work with him to redo his technique and call plays for his few, excellent, skill sets and hope to change his obvious mechanical issues.
i know it's fashionable to hate on him because he's a total fag
football wise, i dont get some of the extreme hate

But yeah, offensive line should be top priority after the season they had. I'm tired of seeing #12 on the floor.

Can't see it. I also don't think we need to get all d-back happy this offseason like everyone else. Pat Lee has a ton of potential. Clark, Ford and Underwood all deserve shots too. I would let the young guys get healthy and see what we have next season before blowing loads on CBs...an-also wrote:Packers apparently offering the chargers Ryan Grant for Cromartie and a 2nd or 3rd pick. Chargers want to give up a 5th
I suppose a willingness to trade Grant, which I would be fine with, means that Ted is looking for a running back in the first round, which I would also be fine with.

i'll tell you one more time: tebow can have success if he is in the right system and has an elite QB coach re work his mechanics. imho. when aaron rodgers came to the nfl he held the ball completely different, his wind up and throwing mechanics were changed. it can be done, has been done.
if this means i love him, then go with it. i dont really give a fuck
now:
for some actual legit, plausible packer news:
Court date postponed for Johnny Jolly
Posted by Michael David Smith on February 19, 2010 9:22 AM ET
Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Johnny Jolly was due in a Texas court Thursday on a felony charge of possession of at least 200 grams of codeine, but his court date was postponed until March 8.
The Green Bay Press-Gazette writes that the new date -- requested by Jolly's attorney -- means the Packers "will have to apply his tender as a restricted free agent without knowing the outcome or whether he'll be suspended the first four games next season."
It's surely true that the Packers would prefer to know the outcome of Jolly's case before they decide how to proceed in free agency, but it's not true that they "have to" do anything. If they're concerned about his legal status, the Packers are free to move on without him and let him shop his services to 31 other teams.
The Press Gazette also writes, "If Jolly is found guilty, it's a given he'll be suspended the first four games of next season for violating the NFL's personal-conduct policy." That's not necessarily true, either; NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell would make that determination at a later date.
But it is true that Jolly, who is charged with possession of at least 200 grams of codeine, could be facing an NFL suspension and prison time. In December, Jolly said, "I don't worry about nothing. I've got God on my side."
What makes you think that a QB coach can rework his mechanics and his decision makeing and well him? The cat is going to give Vince Young a run at his wonderlic score. He had a QB coach brought in specifically to help him become NFL ready and if anything regressed mechanically. Rogers at least was pretty smart and had an NFL arm and his mechanics where no where near as bad as Tebows is right now.keL wrote:
