I didn't even think of that, but it's not like that's an obscure stat? They flash it up every time Rodgers goes 200ish attempts without a pick?

Gotta look to the other Pennsylvania team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 The thing that just busts me up about this last game....is how absolutely winnable it was. I mean damn. I wanna use the wrong word (inexcusable) for the situation...but damn. Really, really tired of coming close but no cigar - which in my case doesnt require a SB win - just get your *** back there. Ugh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, this thing called record books so you could probably find that on Wikipedia. Although, his name is @40Year Pack Fanwhich only takes him back to the beginning of the 80's. Dude you have to come clean. How did you know that without looking it up? We moved to Michigan in 1965....But shortly thereafter our local cable company added three Wisconsin stations....WBAY was the CBS affiliate, WLUK was the ABC affiliate, and WFRV was the NBC affiliate....So I watched all the Packer games and Wisconsin news regarding the football team...I remember Bart Starr, Dan Devine, and Forrest Gregg all having their own TV shows when they were HC's....These were on the night following the Sunday game...Now my information is limited mostly to national sports channels as opposed to the local Wisconsin ones we used to receive....

Dang, you must have lived over on the west end by the Grand Rapids area. I met my wife in Lansing when she was going to Michigan State. btw: Dan Devine's show was boring. Remember Vince Lombardi's weekly show...they used to go over the previous game and it was great. Vince had this great smile. It was almost like watching Bobby Bowden's weekly show at FSU. That man was a natural born salesman. While I eventually went to the University of Florida, I loved Bobby Bowden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFLGURU Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I'd trade him, but I don't think he's going anywhere. I think it's going to come down to 2 things. 1. Does he want to play next year with all the sacrifice and commitment it takes. 2. What happens to DaVante Adams. If he's back either tagged or on a deal and some smaller things happen, I think Rodgers comes back. I dont think he has any desire to play anywhere else and start over. I think he understands his role in the cap and what it means for his surrounding cast. Sounds like it's the Packers or retirement. JMO. At this point, it sounds like a trade is way down the list. JMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There weren't cable companies in the 60's. You must have moved to the UP. Not even sure people had those big dishes they put outside to try and get reception.

coachbuns Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 10 hours ago, NavyGuy said: Why? Could package 15 and 28 to move up to 10. Or trade back for a 1st rounder next year. Gute has killed the 1st round every year. Giving him 4 first round draft picks to play with would set us up for the next few years. Speculation at its finest .. nothing is ever set up for the next few years. All those picks in one draft isn't the "cats meow" especially if what the Packers are looking for isn't really there. Drafting the best player available also isn't that feasible either plus those contracts will all come due at the same year. For Rodgers and Adams to go together the Packers need a ransom of picks not in the same year and a player or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's give people the benefit of the doubt and say they have elite memory and you have to be about 16 to understand QB characteristics. To remember Starr's prime would make you 70. Considering the lack of televised games of that era, you would basically have to be a season ticket holder. That person doesn't exist any more. I'm 7O, not a season ticket holder, am a stockholder and DO remember that he had a hell of a non interception streak. 😁 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell no, was just happy to watch a game with those egg shell helmets and goal posts they ran into. Could have cared less about any interception streak .. this is a goofy argument to begin with.
