Running From The Truth?
Posted by Patrick Castleberg on October 19th, 2010
Well the trading deadline is now come and gone and no move was made on the RB front. The Packers are left with what they currently have. Brandon Jackson and John Kuhn splitting carries with Dimitri Nance as the #3 guy. Of course there is Starks coming off the PUP and in a dire emergency Thompson could go after someone like Ahman Green who is currently playing for a UFL team in Nebraska.
So the big question many have asked is “How could Thompson stand pat with the running back situation?” In an attempt to answer that question I had to look deeper at the numbers.
Assessing the loss of Ryan Grant
Posted by Patrick Castleberg on September 14th, 2010
Since it was announced earlier today that Ryan Grant was being placed on the season ending Injured Reserve list there have been many reactions and as usual many of them are a bit extreme.

Over the past several seasons McCarthy’s Packer teams have proven anything but outstanding when it came to penalties, quality special teams and playing smart, tough football when all the chips were down. Sunday may prove [...]

Let me begin by saying I am ecstatic with this hire. Capers has said all of the things [...]
New Forum

All right…this is a test. Above you will see a link to the Forum. I have a forum set up but have never run one. So I figure this is a good time since the traffic on the site tends to dip until the draft. I enjoy the discussions on the website and would like [...]
The Missing Link
Posted by Patrick Castleberg on December 3rd, 2008
In quite possibly what was simultaneously one of Ted Thompson’s worst and most overlooked moves the releasing of Tracy White has really come back to bite this team. Tracy White was cut October 7th in favor of keeping Danny Lansanah. Now I am far from saying that White would be a magical savior for the [...]

We discussed the option on the show with varied opinions offered but on thing is certain, if your Ted Thompson you have to be asking yourself one question: Is Randy [...]
