Right now it looks like that is true.

GB, regardless of what he may want, is still the best option for him in 2022 and beyond.
Agreed. I think AR has turned the corner a bit with this. The FO went out and got Cobb for him. They've also been active with signing veteran players to the team which AR has made a point to mention he likes. At this moment, I think AR is more likely to remain in GB than to leave it.

Really big - : In my enthusiasm over the Packer win I decided to watch some ESPN to hear what they had to say and I watched 5 minutes of First Take. The constant screaming. The inane comments. The self promotion.
I think I lost 2 months off my life and 20 points off my IQ.
Other than live sporting events ESPN doesn't sniff my channel line up.

5th last year, 3rd in 2019.

I kept wondering why did Hill take the ball out of the EZ when he was 5 yards deep? Wish he wouldn't have done that,
Hopefully Tonyan isn't serious. Non-Contact injury
Agreed. And it sounds like that decision by Hill could affect his career going forward if heās out for the year. I feel bad for the guy, Iām sure he regrets it more than anyone.

Gee who would have ever thought that instead of willfully ignoring veteran NFL talent you could add a Cobb, a Bojorquez, a Mercilus, and a Rasul Douglas right before and throughout the season and not have to exclusively rely upon homegrown underachieving draft picks and UDFAs?
It is almost like somebody in the FRONT OFFICE finally started paying attention to what the Patriots did while winning SBs with Brady and what TB did last season.
PFF rated Mercilus the top defender and Douglas the third best defender for the Pack last night.
Kudos to Gute/the FRONT OFFICE for these stellar acquisitions, and yes Gute has been far more willing to make such moves since he took over as GM than Ted was.
We all know that with Ted in control that would have been Shemar Jean-Charles at CB and La'Darius Hamilton at OLB instead of Douglas and Mercilus.
Trade deadline is Tuesday. Not too late for the Pack to add more talent.
PS To bad ARod did not make a point about the FRONT OFFICE'S refusal to add veteran talent long ago.
Their hand has also been forced by injuries more than probably any year since 2010.
May be in the market for another RB. There's guys out there.

No, it's BOJO.

It's almost as if they needed some kind of motivation.

I'll go to my grave thinking his nickname is BOJO.

I think the game last night is going to start some buzz about him being COTY.
The only thing that could improve his chances would be losing Rodgers for a few games and winning with Love. So, let's not do that.
I have criticized Rashan Gary mightily these past two seasons..and the whole 'pressures' stat thing...but his pressures were very productive last night
That's because he was actually chasing Murray instead of just pushing the pocket. Pretty impressive when he isn't trying to run through a guy.

Listen to his position coach & his view of fan's view.

Yup. Will Packer, the Bucs homer, said, āthe Bucs are the best team in the NFC. Name another team with just one loss that has had as many injuries as Tampa.ā
Uh, the team that beat the Cardinals last night, idiot. Both starting CB. Our best two outside linebackers (Preston was active, but I donāt remember his playing). Our best two OL (Jenkins wax active, but played no snaps), in addition to our second round pick Josh Meyers, who is now on the IR. And our top three receivers, and our #1 TE went down.
Jaire has missed 4 games.
David Bakhtiari has missed 8.
Jenkins has missed 4.
ZaāDarius has missed 7.
Thatās 23 games missed by 4 Pro Bowl starters, the equivalent of three full seasons, to date.
MVS has missed 5 games. King has missed 4. Preston Smith 2.
Our damned defensive coordinator was out due to COVID protocols.
The amount of people we had missing is just getting glossed over, and itās ridiculous.
Saw that too. No injuries in GB at all... nothing see here folks.
+ win, 12,33,28,18 hell the whole thing
+ the number of packer fans at that game, go pack go...ridiculous that happens in a different stadium
- injuries again...and fumbles - 28 better get a grip on it.
- 81 seemed totally lost at times when 85 got hurt...same with 88 and 8 - I get it they are typical non-starters, but next man up...
What I find interesting is the GB fans last night seemed louder than our fans at home games, even though there were far less of them?

Short week with limited to no "on field time" AR knew it was going to be a cluster and that is why he didn't get as upset as usual with guys making mental mistakes.

88 had never played an NFL snap before. He's gets some leeway.
Amari Rodgers is a rookie. He's been disappointing and doesn't get as much of a pass, but let's see what he's like in a year.
DeGuara, while hurt, was still around the team all last year. He's had two training camps. No excuses for him not to know where to lineup. None.

The dome would have an effect there. They intentionally design domes/stadiums to amplify the fans decibel level. They just don't visiting fans-proof them.
At the goalline we should ALWAYS line up with both Jones and Quadzilla in the backfield. Maybe motion Jones out sometimes. Not giving the ball to 28 at the one yard line even with his ball security issues and a stacked box is malpractice.
Has Benkert met Crabtree?
NFL Network just now reporting that Robert Tonyan suffered a season-ending torn ACL injury, per Tonyanās agent.

Yeah, Aikman was blathering on about how well Packer fans travel.
I'd bet the majority of Packer fans there live in AZ.
Check out the Packers Everywhere site, there's a ton of Packer bars in the valley.
Deguera better get his turds in a herd pronto.
Only good thing is there is plenty of season left to reconfigure the TE's in MLF's O.
Tonyan was really starting to make an impact. That sucks.
Next man up.
