EDIT: Just reading this again, Ted is one BAMF. 

Your quarterback is regarded by some as the greatest ever to play the position. Shouldn't it be expected of him that he should win multiple titles as well?

A. This is a team game and we're all in this together. We're all trying to get to the promised land. I'm not sure what your point is.

Since Rodgers took over the offense in 2008 no other QB has two Superbowl wins either.  It's a tough league.            

Q: Shouldn't it be expected of Aaron Rodgers that he also should win multiple titles?

A: I think it should be expected of us. It's a team game. If it was just Aaron (Rodgers) he'd be out there playing tennis. 

There are only 12 QBs total in NFL history who have won multiple championships. It's pretty difficult to accomplish, that's why so many players end up satisfied with just 1 ring and why many great players go a whole career with no rings. 

We're close....VERY close. Can't ask for much more than a chance and we have a VERY GOOD chance. 

We ain't the Lions or the Browns

Stay relatively healthy. Be playing your best football in December and January. And I really like this teams chances.

As much as we make fun of Janis! the WR, isn't his roster spot relatively safe because of his special teams play?

Absolutely. Vital squad member.

Very well put.

point spread for tonight?

Eliot does very well for himself.

Packers didn't play well within the division last year. I expect that to continue tonight. 

Holy grounds...

WR Drill with JUGS machine

I think I have the WR position figured out.  It might be a revelation that TT won't keep any more than 5 or 6 - but he might be "keeping" all of them - some quietly.  after the 5 or 6 are kept, 2 will be added to the practice squad - maybe Allison & Williams - then the others will be paid to NOT accept another contract from another team and stay in shape.  No panic in GB this year with a pool of guys who can play WR at their disposal. 

More seriously, if TM is on IR this year, we know who the 6 will be. 

Abby looked he could do that for an hour. Crap that kid has receiving skills.

They didn't show Janis who would have been last.  May be an indication of his roster position. 

I think everyone felt a huge letdown when the video stopped as Janis stepped up.

30 minutes in, he'd get another concussion. 

Here's the Fox 11 link for the Family Night practice. Supposed to go live in 30 minutes (7:00 pm LFT).

@AdamSchefter: At this time next week

I'M READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL

Nice pic of Schefter being ready for football. 

Too bad what we're getting next Sunday is only a facsimile of football.

Real football returns at 20:30 CEST on August 26. 

What's with all that purple **** on the field?

An unfortunate color scheme for a local charity.

Perhaps not the best marketing decision, to put it as kindly as possible.

I know, was yelling what the h*ll is with all the viqueens colors???       

Anyone else think MM looks a tad slimmer???

I think Chilli just had a coronary. 

I know I almost did

I would never say something so tasteless, but I did think, "That's why no one has adopted them."  Now excuse me while I go say 50 Hail Marys. 

Janis!

@ByRyanWood:  #Packers trying Don Barclay at center, and it's not going great.

Are these just practice uniforms or did they change them?

Janis can do it all. Such a Weapon!

Yeah, I liked that play, too. Hope they keep it in the playbook. That would be a good call against an aggressive, over-pursuing defense.
Was glad to see our defensive guys not get lost on the play-action, and wound up defending the play fairly well.

I'm liking this CB Robertson Daniel. Good size and speed, a battler. See ya Dimitri

Barring injury, I don't see Abby getting cut. 

Not only had pretty good coverage vs Adams, he didn't give up on the play, kept his eyes on the ball, and punched it right outta there! That was a good play.
Had even better end zone coverage, making another play on the ball.
I'm liking his instincts so far.

It's just as well...Goodson will be 37 in 119 months

Abby looks good. It's just a matter if he can stay healthy. His route running looks much crisper bs last season. 

Abby is looking like Jordy light.  Davante may have Charles Lee'd himself off the roster.  Bulked up too much and lost some agility.  That or the trainers gave him cortizone shots in his hands.
