Chris and Dave are not fans of what used to be called the “exhibition season” by the NFL. Practice games just don’t move the meter for the boys. (C & D are also not fans of audio problems, so sorry about the robotic voices starting at about 57 minutes.) Still, there are players to watch…
Bold Predictions: The Best Offense of Aaron Rodgers’ Career
There has been plenty of conversation about how good the Green Bay Packers offense could be this year. I believe this will go down as the best offense the Packers have fielded during Aaron Rodgers’ career (and therefore the best in team history…at least statistically). Rodgers has the ability to be the league MVP every…
Packers Camp: What You Need to Know
The first phase of Tryouts has ended. Tonight is the first audition for the 99th edition of a team on a mission. I have a premonition that this game of attrition will require much volition to ensure the demolition of opposing competition in what hopefully becomes, a Super Bowl rendition. The UPS of Camp…

But even guys like Koren Robinson, Ruvell Martin, and Jarrett Boykin have been able to contribute on…
Packers’ DT Knows the Map to Minneapolis
“I like to line up, punch a guy in his face, in his mouth, in his chest, then disengage, locate the ball, throw [my defender] and make a tackle.” “I really wanted to be the biggest, baddest guy—not to mess with anybody, just so nobody would mess with me,” “That’s got to make you angry…
Bold Predictions: The Packers will have a Top 10 Defense
At the end of the NFC Championship game, most Green Bay Packers fans would have settled for a defense that was not an embarrassment. I believe the Packers defense is about to make a huge stride this season, and will finish in the top 10 in scoring defense. Combining an inneffective pass rush and lack…
