 Hey Duck its funny until you realize who keeps taking the Division almost every year.  >:(

 Those Packy jr. guys go and draft RB's in tandems and that fuucks up our game plan because now we have to counter with LB's.

 Which should never have happened in the first place.

I'm afraid Lacy is going to be a beast...

Lacy...  maybe.

But his last two predecessors in college (Ingram and Richardson) were supposed to light up the NFL too, and that hasn't really happened. In fact a lot of Saban's boys have not met expectations at the next level if not even being flat-out busts  (Rolando McClain, Andre Smith, Terrence Cody).

And I say this as a guy who watches a lot of Bama football every year.

Ingram went to a pass-first offense...Richardson went to a pass-not at all offense.

We'll see...

The other thing is, it seems like Bama players wind up getting injured a lot once they get into the NFL.

Franklin and Cobb are both guys you have to worry about catching a pass and running effectively with it.   Keep a close eye on them when they are both in the lineup at the same time in special formations  along with Finley, Jones and Nelson.   Five guys for Rodgers to choose from.

Desmond BishopAP
When Desmond Bishop signed with the Vikings, a common response was to wonder whether or not he’d take over the middle linebacker job from Erin Henderson.

Henderson has maintained his grip on the job and now the question around Bishop is whether or not he’ll wind up making the 53-man roster in Minnesota at all. Bishop missed the preseason opener with a groin injury after missing all of last season with a torn hamstring, which left coach Leslie Frazier to say that he needs Bishop to prove he can stay on the field if the team is going to keep him around in the regular season...

Looking like a  good decision by Thompson.

The Green Bay Packers have, arguably, the best quarterback in the NFL with field general Aaron Rodgers. Behind the 2011 MVP, however, is uncertainty, with Graham Harrell and Vince Young competing for the backup role.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Young has won the job and Harrell has been released.

FINALLY!   ;-)

I hope no one else wasted time watching the fiasco in GB. 

Must have been frustrating for obnoxious Pete Carroll watching his starters score 3 points sin over a full half a game plus.

 Yknow Packy,

 Our LB's did better then your RBs.

 Get ready for the Trestman era.

 We dont know what its going to be either.

I saw this play last night and the low block that San Fran player put on him was intentional, blatant and extremely dirty.  THAT's the kind of thing that should be drawing a $21K fine, not the clean hit Bostic made last week.

 A fine could still happen Yap.
