I'm not.  We'll just move on to our next QB who will be even better than AR!

It's an established pattern (if a pattern can consist of 2 examples). 

GO PACK GO!

Rodgers is the new George Blanda!
He may even eventually supplant Crosby for FGs and XPs. 

Seriously, next year will be interesting to see how the QB position evolves. 
I think the popular consensus is Hundley is likely to move on, but he lost any trade value once the Pack kept him on the roster this year.
If I assume that no other teams saw enough to discuss a trade, I wonder if he doesn't have as much value as I/we thought. In turn, is there any possibility he stays in Green Bay another 1-3 years? He is still under contract through next year.

Of course, we have Dirty Harry on the PS. I hope he's worth keeping/developing in a backup role, but I'm not sure he's the one to have as a primary backup if Hundley indeed leaves.

The Packers have relied on FA/UFDA QB acquisition more than they have the draft. That may be a good thing....
The trend is to pick a QB about once every 4 years, but excepting Hundley, they have been relatively poor picks (B.J. Coleman, Brian Brohm since ARod became starter). They did provide some value (Brohm and Flynn), and Hundley may ultimately provide something similar, but they need to do better, IMHO.

TT (or whoever) only really needs to do better about one to two years before AR is done. We don't have AR's replacement on the roster right now. Think about all the other teams who have never had the privilege of watching an AR, Brady, or even a Brees. Franchise QBs come along so seldom. NE fans may soon will find that out. As fans, we have just been incredibly lucky.

I thought Taysom Hill could have had a chance to be the second coming of ARod of all the QBs we have had in camp, in recent years. He has the arm, the ability to run when in trouble and seemed to have a level head on his shoulders. Then they put him on the practice squad. Then New Orleans nabbed him. So much for that!

Great news on Adams.

I know many were saying MM should be cautious with him, but my understanding is the concussion protocol is already cautious. It's kind of the whole idea: You take the decision away from the players and coaches and leave it to the MD's, and it's built-in conservative.

Also once it's cleared, it's cleared. Another week does nothing except make him dwell on it, and that's not going to help him any psychologically. 

I hated that hit worse than anything I've seen in the NFL, but it's time to put it in the past. If he's ready, let him get back up on the horse and put it behind him.

What time does Lady Cankles arrive?

I think you meant to say Skinny Cankles since I do not have Midwestern

DNA / genes in my 4 cattankles.

I remember the days, before thousands of Yankees moved to Texas and other Southern and Southwestern states, everyone I knew was slim. My nickname in grade school was 'Tooth Pick Legs". My husband [1960] moved here from Minnesota and had huge ankles like I had never seen before. His entire family of 10 were overweight  had the same thick ankles.  Unfortunately 2 of my kinds inherited the fat ankle genes.

The guy was going home to the fat Yankees in the Midwest or to those who had moved from the north to the south.

2004, 2005 2006 & 2007 had 1 million people in each of those years who moved to the South.

The South and West had 365,000 people move from other states in the 1 year period between 2013 & 2014.

Texas a Southwestern state grew by 450,000 in that same 1 year span of 2013-2014. Now even more people are flooding into our state each year.
