  1. Wondering if some of griffin’s assistants will be let go. If they add 2 you would think not all will be retained. I don’t think there is a max of assistants you can have on the bench though.
  2. I get that. I do think many Packer fans want Leonard because they watch the badgers each week and liked his defense. If he was the d coordinator for say Alabama or USC whom most packer fans don’t watch maybe each and every week, wouldn’t be so high on him. So maybe not because he is a badger but familiar and comfortable with what he can do.
  3. I think it’s different coaching a 20 year old “amateur” vs a 30 year old multi million dollar pro. Maybe his time in the pros prepared him for that. I just saw too many successful college coaches try pro and fail. and yes many pro coaches started in college. They also worked their way up as a positional coach, not a defensive coordinator out of the shoot
  4. @BrewerFan @areacodes @LouisEly I did say that if MLF thought he was the best candidate, I wouldn’t be upset. I do wish that they brought in someone with pro coaching experience since he would be running the d with an offensive focused coach. I never said he was a bad coach, ran a poor scheme or anything. He always struck me as a smart coach. Jeez, I wasn’t bashing him at all, just stating my opinion on the profile of the coach I wanted them to hire
  5. the winner is always the obvious one as of late and the surprise entrants are no as surprising or as many in quantity as hey were back in the day. its still my favorite PPV, but its just not the same. They would rather use NXT people than HOF'ers in that role.
  6. Griffin was making 4 million a year, Bud was making 8 million, so about 23 million a year
  7. agreed, but then why not hire a young position coach off of a good defense like Chris Hewitt. I guess I won' be upset if its Leonard, but also I think some may want him to get the job more because he is a badger. Michigan had the best defense in college football, if they hired their DC to the same job, would packer fans be excited or disappointed, I think the latter.
  8. not because of scheme, but it would be asking a lot for someone with no pro coaching experience to run a defense. Especially with an offense focused head coach. The success level of college coaches going pro isn't very good.
  9. Rivers is signed through 26/27 for 40 Million. so 3.5 yrs = 11.5 million a yr. he better get a belt.
  10. Looking forward to the rumble this year, on the men’s side I think CM Punk most likely wins it. Cody Rhodes is my #2 choice, The Rock is my surprise entrant / winner. on the woman’s side, its wide open. I’m thinking Becky Lynch, Nia Jax, or Bailey make the most sense
  11. After some thought, I do think Don Martindale makes the most sense for DC. Id be upset if it’s Leonard. If it’s a younger position coach from a great defense I’m ok with that too.
  12. Packers signed Jake Podlesny. His college stats are much better than Carlson, but went undrafted and was a preseason cut. I think this is a great move by Gutey.
  13. reports are that Doc is looking at hiring Dave Joerger for an assistant role.
  14. He wasn't my first choice in the offseason, but now they are paying a lucrative deal to Rivers and paying Griffin's salary when they could have just hired doc in the first place. Also Doc is forced to work with a staff that he didn't select. Its not ideal.
  15. the bigger issue than if he should have been fired is the replacement. personally i'd want to stay away from a recently fired coach that could only be here for a year only to seek a new HC job, like Vrabel. I would like a position coach off of a good D like Al Harris or Chris Hewitt.
  16. reports are that Barry could stay on staff in some capacity, which is crazy talk and would undermine the new DC. "Barry still could remain on the Packers' staff in some capacity -- a possibility that is being discussed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter." source: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39377253/packers-fire-defensive-coordinator-joe-barry-according-reports
  17. me too, i'd rather use Miller to spell Hoskins and keep his versatility.
  18. Finally, 1st base is taken care of. I agree I wish there was no opt out, but this is the best case scenario for 2024
  19. we don't. It was on blog that I never heard of that said that. DSG and Amazon hasn't said anything. I agree with your thinking, this might be a transition season with the team being on both. The amazon app would replace the balls app, thats it.
  20. I can only imagine what Devin Williams will get once he hits FA.
  21. My hope was that the brewers would have leveraged their tradeable assets and get a young 1st baseman. After each passing day, a trade of Burnes / Adames is less likely. I never thought they would get a premium FA 1st baseman, but I wish the FO would acknowledge its an issue that Bauers and Owens are the only players on your 40 with MLB 1st base experience. Especially if they insist on going "All In" by not trading their pending Free Agents.
  22. I didn’t include Hoskins, I see Dominic Snith, Cooper, Cron or Santana all about the same in ability and price. None of the 4 very exciting, but an ok placeholder
  23. Ideally this would be like how peacock treated customers when they got the wwe network. Everything available to everyone for no additional cost. They were happy to get the additional subscribers. Now mlb is a more popular service, and Amazon already has a ton of prime members, so I doubt it would work out that way.
  24. No one is arguing that. There seems to be about 5 free agent 1st baseman that have similar projected stats. Pick one
  25. My preference has always been Dom Smith if they want to go the not that good, cheap 1st baseman route.
