15412 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Barry (along with a position coach or more) will be gone soon, and he needs to be replaced with a DC who is not only competent of course but one who will demand respect and put up with zero BS We may be missing 2 and maybe 3 of our best WR's and our starting TE but I don't see how we can lose either of the next two games looking at the opponent. Or what's left of them. Then again, we've got Barry going for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct, they could choose to kick, receive or defer. Since NOBODY chooses to kick since they forfeit the opportunity to select in the second half, it's really two choices: receive or defer.

Hunters want to be around other hunters. A streak of divaness is both a cause and consequence of being great - they burn in the same fire. A great leader uses it. Poor performers and bad leaders (e.g. barry) are totally lost at how to direct it in useful ways.

Starter at Alabama since he was a freshman. This one is starting to look like it makes waaaayyyy too much sense for GB. All we need to see is an RAS score and a religious tweet or two. I want a player like him too. But if you go that route, need to make sure we don't have a soft defense a team can just dink and dunk to death or run the ball down their throat at will first.

Leader Posted December 28, 2023 Author Share Posted December 28, 2023 Bill Huber - What’s worse? That Jaire Alexander appointed himself a captain or that the Packers let everything fester so long that they won't have one of their best players to cover Justin Jefferson in a playoff elimination game? It's a horrible look for everyone. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, the Vikings and Bears are both better teams, especially when you consider that the Giants started DeVito. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are allowed to interpret/change the rule according to your personal take, but others who do the same don't know the rule. Got it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am worried about how we can take Kool Aid higher in the first round, then limit his playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a team makes a choice, there is the choice of which direction a team wants to defend. That is after the coin toss and not a choice during the coin toss.

But, I'll triple down it. The Vikes are freshly without key players and are now starting a rookie QB. The Bears are in absolute disarray and are likely to lose their complete coaching staff and they know it. But again, we do have Barry going for us.

I'd assume that if we draft him high, he gets a few snaps, though he should get more. If we draft him in the mid to end of round one, then he can start right away.
