Love it.
There's a reason the championship trophy is named after one of our former coaches.

If I remember, 2005 was not a very good year.
2005 was Sherman (4-12)
2006 was MM's first year.
Did MM never hold joint TC sessions with another team?
Sherman started his tenure installing digital clocks all over the don hutson center to instill discipline. On his way out he was answering to Brett.

Remember the Cheese League? The NFL training camps that were located in Wisconsin? Once per camp, the teams would "scrimmage" another team based at a UW college. We had the KC Chiefs, as the Home team, at UW-River Falls. They hosted the vikings who drove in from Winter Park for the day. The following camp KC hosted the New Orleans Saints who drove up from their camp at UW-Lacrosse. LaFleur's plans remind me of those days.
Bears were in Platteville too, right?
Fun times in Sconnie
#Packers new Head Coach Matt LeFleur told reporters in Arizona this week he's watched every single play of Quarterback #Aaron Rodgers for the last 2 years. That's about 1500 snaps he's reviewed.
Radio discussing this today who were there when LaFleur talked about this said LaFleur looked like he already has his game face on. He appears to really grinding when it comes to his plans for the 2019 Pack.
LaFleur then said he looked back into Rodgers older film and one of the plays that stood out was in a game against the New York Jets and he plans to show the play to Rodgers when he meets with him at the start of offseason workouts on Apr. 8.
“Some of the traits you always look for in a QB … they brought an internal cross-dog blitz and he hit Jordy (Nelson) over the middle,” LaFleur said via Wes Hodkiewicz of Packers.com. “It’s what we call our no-flinch. There was a free runner, I think it was Bart Scott came running in there free and just how he stood in the pocket and delivered an accurate ball and took (a hit), really he got folded in half like a suitcase. But that’s one of my all-time clips of him, one of my favorite clips of him.”
Not sure if this is the game, but my God was Jordy a flippin' beast.
Where does Jordy rank in the top receivers in Green Bay. Of course Don Hutson would be #1 but I never saw him play. For guys in the last 50 years. I think it would go James Lofton, Sterling Sharpe, then Jordy. If Javon Walker would have stayed healthy and stopped whining about his contract he would have been top five but since he didnt and could not, the top five is rounded out by Greg Jennings, and Davante with Davante moving up the list.
In 8 seasons, Antonio Freeman:
477 catches 7251 yards 66 TD's 15.2 avg
Jordy has 6 more TD's vs Freeman.
Each had played one season elsewhere.
IMO, Freeman has to be among the top all-time Packer WR's

Floridarob, I think you have it right. Like you, never saw Hutson play, saw all the others, Hutson still #1. I think those who never saw saw Lofton may not realize how incredible he was -- truly elite height, hands, speed and smarts. Sharpe was a beast. Both should have been Packers much longer than they were. You watch these replays of Jordy and are reminded just how much he contributed over the years. What a great player: https://www.packers.com/video/...he-green-bay-packers
Sterling Sharpe was an amazing talent. He'd be in the HOF if he didn't get hurt.
Sharpe transcended some bad teams
When comparing current vs past WRs, we also have to keep in mind rules then vs now.
Then, corners and safeties could play, you know, defense. They could drill WRs, play real bump and run, and grab.
Now? Imagine a 21 year old version of Sharpe playing now. With all the rules slanted toward the offense.
Holy shit...

The Vikings train at UM-Mankato. Short drive from there to LaCrosse.

Antonio Brown posted 5 strait seasons with 1200 plus receiving yards,
Sharpe could have done that with one hand tied behind his back.
James Lofton was a friggin beast. Imagine a 21 year old Lofton now.
Lofton, Rice, Sharpe all in their prime playing today?? Shiiiiiiiiittt Those dudes might have 3,000 yards receiving each
I think you have to keep Donald Driver in there. Dude came from literally nothing and had a big time career.
Driver was a 7th round draft pick. So was Tauscher.
Unbelievable value finding legit NFL players in rounds 4-7.
I'm in favor of doing anything that wasn't done in the previous regime. Might not work out but it's time to shake things up.
Vikings should move their camp to Walnut Grove. Might toughen them up.

Good one. I would have to go Hutson, Lofton, Sharpe, Driver, and Jordy
I think in today's NFL Lofton and Sharpe would go freaking nuts and I can't even imagine how good their stats would be. Can you even imagine Rodgers throwing to those two?
It's hard for me to conclude Lofton was definitely better than Sharpe or Sharpe was definitely better than Lofton.
I have to give them a tie!
Lofton was awesome, but Sharpe found a way to get so many receptions even though it seemed he was all the offense had. I don't know how he managed to do that!

Meh...you give up that many goals, you deserve to lose. I'm over it. Win the PL, and all is forgiven.

They also played in completely different eras in terms of what a DB could do to a WR. Same with Sharpe and current players.

I was hoping he could have used 93, although he would've had to work it out with Gilbert. 53 could've been an alternative.
Savage should've gotten 24 or 34.
