    Packers would have to be asking themselves if a new defensive scheme would turn Hobbs around.
  2. GAME05
    Packers offseason started somewhere around Week 14.
  3. GAME05
    Catherine O'Hara, 71. She was Moira Rose in Schitt's Creek and was amazing in all those Christopher Guest movies.

    If you thought it was tough having to talk about Peralta, just wait until after next season when Turang starts entering that conversation.
  5. GAME05
    Well that makes him exactly the sort of player the Bucks will trade their first-rounder for!
  6. GAME05
    If Gannon doesn't prove himself right away he'll be on a short leash. Eight years, at the most.
  7. GAME05
    Landing 2-4 would be the most amazing stroke of good fortune since drafting Giannis. Which of course the NBA would never let happen to increase the chance that Giannis goes to NY.
  8. GAME05
    I had the impression the Packers hired Gannon because he was only a day or two away from being hired by somebody else, the Packers kinda liked him so they had to move really quickly and didn't really have anyone else in mind.

    Super Utility, then 3b/SS if either don't hit next year, and then a longer-term Turang replacement when he gets too expensive in arbitration. A great futures move the Brewers have to make and I'm surprised they were able and willing to get quality over quantity. Was expecting two barely-top-100 prospects and a third scrub. I get the "go for it" idea, but the Brewers going for it and missing pushes them way back when they can't just rebound through FA like other teams.

    I think MlF is the kind of coach who can make bad teams good again, just as Andy Reid is an amazing playoff coach who probably couldn't turn around a 2-15 team. Just two different kinds of coaches. Plus a heck of a lot of value to a coach who is good with QBs (considering a bad team would have a young one) and one who you know will bring stability instead of risking it on a rookie HC who might not. Every coach has his warts, and "Sure he can win 14 games, but can he lead you to the SB?" is the smallest wart of all. I'm still in on a new HC, but I can absolutely see why a team would give up a pick for him. If I were a team like Tennessee, I absolutely would give up a 2nd for MlF.
  11. GAME05
    The Packers have always wanted stability, so losing both MlF and Hafley would be the last thing they'd want. But if there's any thought to promoting Hafley, they better hurry up. Could Jim Leonhard be our next DC?
  12. GAME05
    Oregon QB Moore going back to school. Jets lose what would have been their next guy. Moore probably thinking "Of all the teams I wouldn't want to go to...."

    If you ask me how my boss is getting along while he's still my boss, you're sure to get a glowing review.
  14. GAME05
    I was rooting for the Jaguars, just because they still felt like underdogs. But now the Bills like probably everyone. For the Packers, against the Vikings, against the Bears, for the underdog. In that order.
  15. GAME05
    How many people said "Who?" when Hafley was hired, yet apparently he was a well-known name in NFL circles? Probably a lot of guys out there we just can't see from the outside, in. Really think Stefanski will get a HC job right away next year? He's apparently an old-school coach and I wonder if GMs will worry he'd not gel with the younger players. He certainly didn't with Sanders, though Sanders was maybe impossible. Still, though, how many more are just like Sanders, especially now showing up at rookie camp as millionaires already?
  16. GAME05
    I'm interpreting the post as a frustration about payroll disparity but expansion happened to be in the way.
  17. GAME05
    I read "historical pieces" a little differently and think it'd be neat to read old ones from brewerfan.net if they're accessible not just for memory road but to see how right/wrong we were about player assessments.
  18. GAME05
    I split things East/West in my OOTP game because that's the way it should be. Better for rivalries because there's really no reason Yankees/Mets or Brewers/Twins shouldn't play each other more often to promote local rivalries, plus way better for the real players to cut down on the travel miles. Mississippi River isn't a perfect split of teams. I also added Portland in my game but you still have to pull a few East-side teams and make them play in the West.
  19. GAME05
    With the expanded playoffs it doesn't seem like that's near the possibility it used to be. July 4th last year there were only five teams more than five games out of the Wild Card spot in the NL. If it were any big factor in the strategy we'd have ourselves a Josh Hader situation most every year and I'd venture a guess more hated by the fans than an offseason move.
  20. GAME05
    Yeah, that's true. But still better than copper lines or tree-covered satellite. A friend said he was getting 50 Mgs on AT&T's wi-fi service, so I got that box. Basically $50/mo. I haven't run it yet to see, but the salesmen weren't too optimistic as I'm not in a great location. But with the leaves off the trees I should have waited two-ish months to see what the difference is when my satellite service is at its worst. Co-worker has a cherry-picker but he hasn't agreed to come over yet. Would like to at least lop off limbs, but better top a tree and hang the dish up there. Hanging an extension pole from a roof-height lightpole I have in the back yard is the other idea.
  21. GAME05
    A short-term extension doesn't make much sense from LaFleur's perspective. Why accept a contract which says you're not trusted and on a short leash, especially when there's gotta be a few teams who'd hire you as HC.
  22. GAME05
    SF also didn't have five weeks to plan for his absence, a 1st rounder to replace him and another highly paid TE on the other side of the line. Or a huge lead in the game. Or six previous years of playoff failure. But SF still had Purdy, who I assume has won three MVPs in a row since two is obviously not sufficient to have a good team. Granted, it surprised the Eagles, too, so I'm sure if you went back and looked at the Packers game when Parsons went down, you'll see MlF really coached his rear off in that game and we came out winners, too.
  23. GAME05
    I feel like, during a playoff game, "That's his first career TD" is something to be said of 7th Round WRs, not 1st Rounders.
  24. GAME05
    Instead of a halftime speech Matt LaFleur murders a puppy in front of everyone.
  25. GAME05
    Policy, in case you're reading this, please know this isn't just over the top reaction right after a loss.
