2011 Packers 15-1 Record Didn’t Match The Team’s GPA

The 2011 Packers GPA didn’t match their 15-1 record. I know the draft is over and OTAs are in full swing, but I need to revisit last season for a minute. If we judged the 2011 Packers the same way professors judge college students, what would be the Packers final grade point average? Let’s go to the report card. Offense: A Aaron Rodgers was the MVP and the Packers scored...

Packers Will Be “Fine” With Current Backup Quarterbacks

Will the Packers be "fine" with Graham Harrell as the backup quarterback? I’ve had about enough. After reading Football Outsider’s NFC North installment of their “Four Downs” series, it’s finally time to make known this humble blogger’s opinion regarding the backup quarterback situation in Green Bay.

Packers Draft Picks Compared to their Current Players

Jerel Worthy and the many position battles on the defensive line will be worth watching in training camp.

NFC North: Jim Schwartz’s Seat Should Be Heating Up

Schwartz's antics should be raising some eyebrows in the Motor CIty If you took a poll of 100 NFL fans and asked them which of the four head coaches in the NFC North was on the hottest seat entering the 2012 season, a majority very likely would choose Chicago Bears head coach Lovie Smith who survived a mediocre season which was followed by a major shakeup in the Bears’...

Veteran free agent DE Phillip Merling became the twelfth defensive lineman on the Packers' offseason roster.

A Way-Too-Early Packers 53-man Roster and Depth Chart Prediction

Here’s my way-too-early Packers 53-man roster prediction and depth chart. It’s presented without comment because I’d rather see what all of you have to say about it in the comments section. (And spare the “it’s way too early to be talking about this” comments). I know it’s way too early. Hence the title. In my opinion, this topic is much...

Packers Coaches Campen, Slocum Out of the Fire?

Is James Campen finally off the hook in the eyes of Packers fans? There’s been something missing this offseason, and I’ve finally figured out what it is: the annual tirade of Packers fans against special teams coach Shawn Slocum and offensive line coach James Campen.

Questioning the “Effort” and “Motor” of the Packers’ Nick Perry
