Has anything been said or written about Love developing this year?

 

Yea, I read something about Rodgers not being done, so they aren't going to worry about him. ;)

 

As long as Rodgers stays single, yes. If he gets a girlfriend/wife, trade him immediately.

The local USA Today network ran a story a few days ago about Jordan Love (presumably that the Packers were pleased with his progress), but it’s behind a pay wall. The headline seemed encouraging, though. :)

Quote from Luke Getsy:

 

“Nothing compares to getting live reps, but as far as from where he was in training camp to where he is now, I think he’s much farther along and understands what we’re trying to accomplish in our offense.”

"Dustin Pedroia doesn't have the strength or bat speed to hit major-league pitching consistently, and he has no power......He probably has a future as a backup infielder if he can stop rolling over to third base and shortstop." Keith Law, 2006

Sounds good. Hopefully, he spends at least 2 more years developing.

Anyone still want Gregg Williams as DC next year?

 

 

Yes...

 

Nothing's changed my opinion on Pettine.

I wouldn't touch Williams with a 10 foot pole. A crap human being that throws other coaches under the bus and seems to not have the respect of players after yesterday, and has probably been going on longer than that. He deserved to get fired today.

With Vic Fangio reportedly on the hot seat in Denver, my hope is that they keep losing and can him and we hire him as DC. He may fail hard as a head coach, but he's a fantastic DC.

 

This is one retread I would consider. Otherwise, I'd be looking to find the next up-and-comer DC instead of rehashing guys that have been at several places with diminishing returns and trying to recapture that one magical team where it all clicked for them.

He runs a 4 - 3 doesn't he? Would they switch up the defense?

Fangio runs a 3-4/4-3 hybrid. Majority of his defense are a 4-3 under scheme though he will change it up if the players don't fit under his scheme. He uses 3-4 against the run and 4-3 under against the pass.

 

Quick edit the CB and safeties have to be high football IQ players to work in Fangio's coverage schemes.

The Packers actually have really good personnel to run a hybrid, as Z/Preston Smith could easily work as 4-3 DEs when not playing 3-4 LB.

 

Gary is the OLB that sets the edge best on our team. Z is OK, Preston has been the worst.

Fangio's a good DC and has been for a long time. I still think what Williams has done over the course of his career has been pretty impressive. Just about anyone would be better than Pettine IMO. The Packers have a lot of talent on defense and I don't think they're a very good team.

I wouldn't retain either of Pettine or Mennenga for 2021.

 

 

But I would make Adam Stenavich the old "assistant HC" and give him a nice pay raise.

 

The way this OL lost Bulaga, lost Linsley, has lost Wagner and Bahk, and Patrick and whoever...and they just keep doing their jobs and playing at a high level...gotta give him a lot of credit with that.

It's a poorly kept secret that Rodgers has been dating Shailene Woodley since before the season started. Allegedly she's the reason he broke up with Danica.

 

So maybe it's because he's dating her that he's doing so well?

Dang... the dude's got a type. She SEEMS like she's kinda funny. But I liked Oliva Munn. I also don't know most of what these people say or do, but she also seemed kinda funny. Sarcastic and smart. But maybe that was more her characters than her. The show she did with Jeff Daniels, Newsroom, was a great show...IMO.

The only thing I remember of Olivia Munn is the hot dog incident.
