The
#Packers
are placing All-Pro LT David Bakhtiari on Injured Reserve, knocking him out at least the next four games, per me and
@TomPelissero
. But given his knee situation, it’s unclear when or if Bakhtiari will return this season.

special teams. Won all 3 postseason games by double digits. Dominated essentially wire to wire.
This team is constantly underrated.
Now for some shade -
The alleged genius Joe Douglas made a trade for a 38-year-old QB and put an offensive line in front of him that got him hit three times on three snaps.
Meanwhile, alleged moron Brian Gutekunst finds OTs more than you find spare change in the couch.
The reality is this: The Packers lost 3 significant contributors to their offensive line room this offseason.
We have no idea if Sean Rhyan is any good (or bad).
You're about to pay the QB a billion dollars.
Build the wall.
Would you accept this trade from Las Vegas?!
Raiders receive:
• Aaron Rodgers
Packers receive:
• TE Darren Waller
• 2023 1st round Pick (7)
• 2024 1st Round Pick
The Lions were +3 in turnovers, 2 of which were in plus territory. Had the ball up 19-13 with 10 minutes left and kicked another FG.
They gave up 2 scores on the final two possessions with wide receivers that probably should be on the practice squad.
Spare me the ref bullshit
Titans beat the patriots, all we can talk about is Tom Brady.
Titans destroying Baltimore on the road and we’re talking about Lamar and John Harbaugh.
Maybe it’s the Titans are playing well. 🤷🏻♂️
Guys you really don’t have to choose sides with everything. They both played for the Packers. They both influenced a lot of people to be fans of the team.
Picking one seems silly.
There may be no play that better illustrates Jordan Loves growth as a QB than this one.
Doesn’t panic. Navigates the pocket. Picks his eyes up. Fires a strike to 9.
Kinda looked like….. nvm.
Prediction: Packers take George Pickens at 28
Draft/regular media: "LMAO they finally take 12 a WR they could have gotten 30 picks later"
Pickens balls out ala Eric Stokes - no apologies made to Brian Gutekunst.
The Jets have publicly dunked on their current QB, told every single other QB option they want to wait because they really really want Aaron Rodgers
They went out and met with him without agreeing to trade compensation, and now they're upset Green Bay is using that against them?
It remains incredible to me that this national narrative of wasting Rodgers career mccarthy sucks etc. doesn’t apply to drew Brees/Sean Payton.
(Inb4
@Peter_Bukowski
shares a story he wrote on that exact subject)
Saints’ WR Michael Thomas had an altercation with a teammate at practice this weekend, per league sources. Saints now disciplining Thomas by sitting him Monday night, when he was being listed as questionable with an ankle injury.
Some of you are weird.
Was the end in Green Bay... complicated?
Sure was!
Was there so much more joy brought to you through the first 16 years of his career?
You bet there was. You're lying if you say otherwise.
This app is acting like Aaron Rodgers was going to sign a 4-year deal for $10.
You're not a money expert. You're not a cap expert. You're not a team-building expert. If you wanted Aaron Rodgers back, just be happy he's back. This is what it costs.
Per league source the Packers are discussing a deal with Pittsburgh involving J Lo and Chase Claypool.
The league source is a legend that lives in Green Bay that has probably had too many bloody marys.
When asked for further comment he said "its my rumor."
Derek Carr on wanting Davante Adams to the Raiders in free agency next year: "I will be recruiting very hard. When that time comes, it will be a full-court press."
There’s a lot of things that need to happen. It was just practice
HOWEVER
If GB gets the version of Jordan Love that I watched today during the season - they’ll win 11 games.
If you don’t want to tune him here’s a cliff notes
Hey man I love GB. Wanted to stay. We could t figure it out. They wanted JLo.
I had a great conversation good energy with Saleh/Jets.
I wanna play. Can still play. Will play.
Some passive aggressive dig at the org.
I’m gonna get this out of the way now too. Anyone mocking a receiver to Green Bay in round 1 is not watching them play and/or is doing so to feed a narrative.
With 31 days left until the start of the NFL season, let's look at this absolute laser from Aaron Rodgers to Greg Jennings to pick up a 31 yards and shift momentum during Super Bowl XLV.
Players playing their last game in Green Bay:
Jimmy Graham
Marcedes Lewis
Geronimo Allison
Blake martinez
Kyler Fackrell.
Let me know if I need to add anyone
Allen Robinson is so good, man. Unfortunately, his career might end up being a big “what if” because he hasn’t been paired with consistent QB play during his prime.
National guys won't get this, and that's fine.
It's simple when you think about it this way. The
#Packers
could have had
Will Fuller for 8 games.
OR
An extension for the best LT in football and flexibility in March.
I have compiled a complete and thorough list of playoff games Green Bay has lost with Aaron Rodgers because they didn't have enough offense
2015 vs Arizona (injuries to Nelson Cobb and Adams)
2019 vs SF (Allison starting)
Thats the list.
Spare the martyr narrative
Here's the thing with the Packers -
I think it's justifiable to say run it back after 2020.
I wouldn't have, but the same is true after 2021.
It's not justifiable after this season. It just isn't. Even the biggest optimist of optimists should see that.
Obviously Green Bay will retire
#12
when it’s time.
I think there’s only one other possible candidate that won’t be considered but maybe should. (21)
Are there any others you can think of?
Per league source the
#Packers
are negotiating a 5 year $100 Million extension with WR Allen Robinson.*
* denotes this tweet is bullshit. But give me the RTs and clout anyway so I can be like the fake rumor pages.
Matt LaFleur has a lot of good tendencies as a HC.
His tendency to clench up and go all brakes no gas in the highest leverage situations is not one of them.
MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT:
I will now be officially boycotting Major League Baseball for not banning SF Giants Manager Gabe Kapler from the league for disrespecting the National Anthem.
Baseball cannot be America's pastime without 100% respect for the National Anthem, period.
Randy Moss just picked the Packers on NFL countdown because of the connection between Adams, Cobb and TONYAN in the passing game.
I know covering 32 teams isn't easy but is it that hard to do a little homework?
Brian Gutekunst moved on from all-time fan-favorite RT Bryan Bulaga following the 2019 season.
Since then, Bulaga has played just five complete games for the Chargers.
All while Billy Turner, RT, has played 26 consecutive complete games for the Packers.
Credit to Gute & Billy.
I’m not sure what they call their defense in Green Bay - but whatever they’re doing looks nothing like what’s going on in Baltimore.
My goodness they swarm
Full disclosure. I wanted Brian Burns in 2019.
In 2021 Rashan Gary has more
QB Hits
Pressures
Sacks
than Brian Burns.
It's a short sample - but Gary's breakout SZN is here.
Matt LaFleur has a 33-7 regular record as
#Packers
head coach.
How impressive is that? No coach in the Super Bowl era has more wins through their first 40 games than Matt LaFleur.
Packers Current OL
R. Walker - strong finish, was rotating in late December.
E. Jenkins - good
J. Myers - inconsistent, contract year.
S. Rhyan - is he any good?
Z. Tom - good.
They're a Rasheed Walker regression away from some real problems up front.
This passes the smell test.
Green Bay's offense is good, but not good enough to carry a poor defense and special teams.
The Packers need to re-evaluate the way they look at both defense and special teams. They've changed coordinators/schemes etc. and it's all the same.
I know I will get over it the second he throws 4 touchdowns for GB next fall, but count me in the camp that is "tired of the diva stuff."
Come back. Don't. I don't really care anymore.
@ProFootballTalk
“Rodgers is involved in trying to recruit one or more free agents to the Jets”…
…while being under contract with the Packers.
Now THAT is tampering or illegal in some way. 🤣🤣🤣
