  1. Short week turn around for two teams with SB expectations... yet neither really living up to that hype. The short week probably favors the home Lions over the beat-up Packers, though I expect a few players were held out against the Vikings to be ready for the Lions. Both teams recently beat the NYG...though barely in both cases. Maybe the Packers feel a little better about a close game in NY rather than the Lions having to scramble back before winning on OT at home. But here we are with both teams looking up at the Bears 2/3rds of the way through the season. May Jordan Love always remember the great turkey leg snub... and come back to win it every chance he gets!
  2. Even worse when you realize that at least half of Gary's sacks are due to Parsons looping behind the QB and pushing him up to the LOS and running into Gary (who got nowhere on the pass rush)
  3. Been getting coached up by LeBron...
  4. This happens every year.... We assume just because one player signed for $X million that there are plenty of other players just like him waiting to sign in FA. I made a post a while back grouping players in position of need (e.g. 3B/SS/2B - to replace Ortiz). It came down to about 6 players that would realistically provide more value than Ortiz and about 4 of them would be out of our price range (Bichette, Bergman, etc..). So there ended up being only a couple realistic options in FA. Now you have to convince that player to play for Milwaukee over other teams that also want his services. So which specific player do you have in mind that would sign for $22M (I'll even give you up to 3 years at that price - far more than our exposed risk with Woody) that would be more of an improvement to our team than Woody?
  5. No. We rarely sign FAs anyway. Trades are far more likely to bring in offensive help.
  6. There are a lot of HOF TEs that couldn't block to save their lives... But they could also stay on their feet and hold onto the ball.
  7. Also realize that Madison/Milwaukee has an accent that isn't in the rest of Wisconsin... YET WE ARE STILL FROM WISCONSIN! No, I don't say "bubbler". I didn't hear anyone say "Wes-consin" until I went to MSOE for college. No, Tomah is not "Up North". Yes, the bears still suck. #ProudlyRepresentingTheNorthWoods
  8. Bucks really need a 3 and D SF. Emphasis on the D. GTJ is way out of position. Seems like a non-traditional player like Giannis gets ref-ed to minimize the advantage he has. Bucks need to start doing a promo campaign to show all the terrible non-calls against GA.
  9. I've had to say things like this all the time when people come to complain about a particular worker and you have a performance improvement plan in place for that person... You smile and say things in a positive way because you don't throw them under the bus to others. "Absolutely needs to play more": Translation - his own stupid mistakes kept him off the field. We were sending a message. "We'll make sure that happens": Translation - he is going to run fumble drills all week to drive it in his head. "He did a pretty good job overall": Translation #1 - he had two sucky plays when we put the ball in his hands, but he made a great cheerleader on the sidelines in the second half. Translation #2 - We don't have other options and are stuck with the guy for the year and trashing him to the press would eliminate one of my several bad TE options.
  10. The Packers survived the Giants.... barely. But injuries are mounting. Jacobs remains a question mark. Wilson is a good backup and Brooks is a decent third down back, but neither are close to bringing what Jacobs can provide. Golden is missing a lot of opportunities being banged up. Will Reed finally return? Our TE group is in major flux. Musgrave can't seem to hold onto the ball or block. Fitzpatrick is who he is...an "ok" blocker and not much else. At least JJ McCarthy is all over the place in his throws and his OL is struggling. Keep him scrambling and our D should have a good game against him.
  11. It seems that over the last 5 years or so have become far more aggressive in prospect development... pushing them up the chain faster to MLB level. Thus, fewer prospects languish until they are forced to be added to the 40-man. If we were a low-ranking system with no one to add, that would be a worry. Since we are easily seen as a top 10 system, it is probably more of an anomaly to have no one to add. Certainly will change next year...
  12. Well, I guess the Bears still have some hope, then. 😉
  13. I wonder how much playing GTJ at SF has impacted him too. We really don't have someone that can really play SF decently. Doubly worse with Prince out.
  14. No backup catcher? (Note: I let Brock know that the template probably needs to be modified since there isn't a natural spot for the backup C). I think non-tendering Vaughn if he doesn't accept $6M is silly. He had 1.3 WAR on his short stint with the Brewers alone. I know he has a poor track record, but his arby project is something like $7.8M and a FA signing is around $9M/WAR. Seems like an easy decision.
  15. OSS being pessimistic? Is water still wet? 😂 As for the bears, I think their upcoming schedule will iron out some of those "flukes" for them. Eagles, Lions, Packers (x2), Vikings, 49ers, Steelers. Only 2 teams with losing records (Vikings and Browns) and the Vikings beat them once already.
  16. Right on cue... 😂 Clearly, he is better when he tried to do less and play within himself. Seemed like last year he didn't quite get how to work with Giannis. This year, he is much better.... evidently until he gets to work without Giannis again.
  17. This is coming from the Payroll Blueprint Tool - Brewer Fanatic So rather than being snippy in your response... maybe try it out yourself and tell us what you think the budget will be.
  18. Are we living in a world where Kuzma is becoming Bobby Portis part duex (slightly worse on 3s, greatly better on D)? AND outplaying Middleton?
  19. Why in the world were they rushing a 4th down??? They have TOs, they had 1:40 in time... WHY NOT GET SETUP RIGHT???
  20. Wicks has showed up today, but that drop hurts...
  21. I prefer having the time and not risking a fumble for 5 yards
  22. So you're saying that even good coaches make dumb decisions??
  23. Thank you Philly for two really dumb plays to stop the clock for us.
