also, what depth we have at running back! Holy cow! An embarrassment of riches:
Eddie Lacy27
James Starks44
DuJuan Harris**26
Kuhn30
Ragion Neal34
hill 22
I'd bet TedlyT. will trade Hill to some team that's weak at RB rather than hoping he will pass waivers and go on the practice squad. Then again, I thought I saw an alien tonight at the supermarket! ;-)
We can see why Gray is not a wide out
I'm still processing how good Lacy is. He's big but plays small until he needs to play big. He's not shifty. He's decisive. But he never seems to hurry. Before you know it he's worked through the gears and he's going top speed.
I cant think of any back he reminds of. Talk about a guy born to play running back.
Goodson is a sixth round pick who played 2 years of college football. Relax. He wasnt drafted to play this year. He was drafted due to his ridiculous athleticism, with the hope that he might develop football skills since, you know, he played more college basketball than college football. And if he never develops? Oh well. He was a sixth round pick, you move on.
Has Tolzien passed Flynn tonight? Tolzien got GB in the end zone.

_Born to Play Running Back_ The perfect title for his autobiography after a long and successful career with the Pack!

You mean, he needs development?

Yup
Last game will decide it.
Nice pass.
LOL
"Where's that exciting penalty total at?"
Well said.
Not a great last 7 days for Crosby. Missed 2 situational kicks in team drills this week. Kickoff OB tonight. Missed the 53 yarder. Might be time to bring that mad Italian back to help get his mind right.
I have a man crush on Lacy.
THere was a whole lot of white on that play.
I really hope Tolzien gets the bulk of the work next week. The coaches really need to figure out if he can move ahead of Flynn. We all know who Flynn is and what he can do, but Tolzien needs to show he can go the bulk of a game while making good decisions.
Last I looked Giorgio was leading the competition to be the Lions' kicker.
On that Oakland TD there were a lot of Packer players standing around back there.
Well, the route was so pretty.
Eddie Lacy is so good....we can forgive that Panama Jack hat. WTF?

Cut Flynn and keep Elliot on that 53. BAM!
Ted will keep 3.
| C/ATT | YDS | AVG | TD | INT | SACKS | RTG | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A. Rodgers | 9/20 | 139 | 7.0 | 2 | 0 | 1-6 | 101.9 |
| S. Tolzien | 8/11 | 107 | 9.7 | 1 | 0 | 0-0 | 133.5 |
| M. Flynn | 4/10 | 37 | 3.7 | 0 | 1 | 0-0 | 11.2 |
| Team | 21/41 | 277 | 6.6 | 3 | 1 | 1-6 | -- |
I think TTT may figure he can get Flynn if he needs him. Tolzzzzzien looks much better.
That's Sittons hat. I don't think Josh knows Eddie lifted it for the interview. Josh will have his vengeance.
Chicago is getting their asses handed to them on paper plates in Seattle.
Week 1 is going to be a war.
Wow. Seahawks smoking B***s 28-0 in second quarter.
Clay is a cut.
Clay, is that his name or what his shoes are made of?
#25 for GB is Charles Clay - allowed both TDs.
Well, it was a good summer job for him before he goes to look for a real job.
Love the depth on this team right now. Specifically on D. There won't be any Doc Jennings or McMillian disposable guys on the 53.
I hope Raji isn't a serious injury. I hope Clay and Peppers stay healthy. You can already see how lethal those two are when moved around.
The linebackers on the 53 could go in a bunch of directions. Love the talent in the secondary.
Eddie Lacy. Eddie Lacy. Eddie Lacy. Eddie Lacy. Eddie Lacy. Eddie Lacy. Eddie Lacy.

EDIT: From packers.com:
- Friday nightâs game will be televised to a national audience on CBS, with play-by-play man Jim Nantz and color analyst Phil Simms handling the call from the broadcast booth and Tracy Wolfson reporting from the sidelines.
My impersonation of Nantz and Simms:

@PackerUpdate: Raji had ice wrapped around his right arm. If he tore his biceps (just speculation), TT better have Ryan Pickett on a plane by Sunday.
@jasonjwilde: McCarthy on B.J. Raji's arm injury: "You have an initial exam. B.J., heâs pretty confident about it. Thatâs why you do the tests." #Packers

It pleases me.
Based on tonite Harris should be 2nd and Starks 3rd.
I think his style makes him a better change of pace than Starks.. I love Starks, but he should just be insurance and Harris the change of pace.

Michael Rodney from PU has had his hate machine to BJ Raji for years now. He has convinced himself he was a bad pick and was irked TT even re-signed him to the bargain deal he did.
And he and his site has morphed more and into:
Earlier he tweeted that after Lattimore got dinged, the Packers ILB was getting "depleted".
Drama Queen much?
torn bicep? he was on the sideline jumping around on the Perry sack fumble. he's fine.
Sorry, didn't get to see the game. How did the trio of TC champions do: Janis, Pennel and Elliot?
Elliot had a sack and a batted ball. I didn't hear Janis or Pennel's name called.
