  With all the talk about “Brent Favre” lately, everyone seems to be overlooking something quite interesting?  Where the hell is Greg Jennings?         If you watched any of our OTA video this past couple of weeks, you will notice a disturbing trend. No Greg Jenning’s highlights. I scoured through hours of film and the guy was either [...]

So Far So Good for the Packers Transition to a 3-4 Defense

AP reports that Packers new D-coordinator Dom Capers and coach Mike McCarthy are happy with the transition to the new 3-4 defense: After watching their defense fritter away too many leads last season, the Green Bay Packers now are knee-deep in a major transition. With new defensive coordinator Dom Capers come new coaches — and, [...]

No Progress Reported On Jennings Contract Talks

In February, the Green Bay Press Gazette reported the Packers were expected to begin contract extension talks with Greg Jennings. In March, it was reported that Jennings was Green Bay’s top re-signing priority, ahead of safety Nick Collins. Now it’s June, and there hasn’t been a hint of progress from the two sides.  Greg A. Bedard of [...]

How Aaron Rodgers can be THE MAN in Green Bay

Five suggestions for Aaron Rodgers… 1) Drop the Jesus look and please stop wearing those ridiculous hats to the post-game press conferences. Dude, we know you’re from California, but you’re not a skateboarder—you’re an NFL quarterback, dammit. Please try looking like one. (Writer’s note: Looks like Aaron may have already gotten this advice from somewhere else. ...

Nick Collins Made A Cameo Only

Packers fans exhaled a bit when safety Nick Collins showed up for offseason workouts this week. But maybe they shouldn’t. As Greg Bedard of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports, Collins showed up only once last week.  And he merely watched a little bit of practice, left with players who were rehabbing injuries, and never returned. “He went through [...]

Heeeeere’s Jeremy!

  As the Packers OTAs have progressed, one of the most surprising stories has been the rapid ascension up the depth chart of Jeremy Thompson.         A fourth round draft pick out of Wake Forest (102nd overall) in 2008, Thompson saw limited action in his rookie season. Thompson was inactive for the Packers first four games, but [...]

Safety won't back down

For the sake of the Green Bay Packers, they should hope safety Anthony Smith has matured - on the field. But if they expect him to hold his tongue, say, if they face an undefeated team late this season, the Packers shouldn't hold their breath.

It’s Not About Money

  I almost took everything a said back about Nick Collins yesterday when he attended practice. I am sure glad I didn’t.         Silly as it sounds, I thought Collins might actually be making an effort to help out the Green Bay Packers, it turns out he is just a little light in the wallet. About a hundred [...]

Profits Down, But Finances In Good Shape

RISING PLAYER COSTS REMAIN A CONCERN The rough economic times had a noticeable impact on the Green Bay Packers' latest financial report, as profits from the past fiscal year fell considerably over the previous year - from $23 million to $4 million, a drop of more than 80 percent. But Packers executives credited the ongoing success of the stadium renovation, the overall fan...

For a limited time only

Packers Pro Bowl safety Nick Collins attended practice Wednesday but did not fully participate and it is not yet clear if his contract is still an issue.

Collins attended just one practice this week

It's a little clearer now why Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy was vague about safety Nick Collins' appearance at practice on Wednesday. It was the only day Collins showed this week, according to two sources.
