With the draft in the books, time to look at who's expected to hoist the Vince Lonbardi trophy. I think Green Bay fans will be happy to see the Packers in the elite group. … [Read more...] about Packers among top five post NFL Draft Super Bowl Favorites

PHOTO: did Ha Ha Clinton-Dix foreshadow Green Bay drafting him 3 weeks ago?
With the 21st pick, the Green Bay Packers selected safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix of Alabama. Uncharacteristic of the Packers picking a guy that everybody expected them to pick; but why not? A safety was an obvious need in Green Bay and Ha Ha Clinton-Dix was, arguably, the best one available. This pick by the Packers does not solve all of their defensive woes, but it’s a great … [Read more...] about PHOTO: did Ha Ha Clinton-Dix foreshadow Green Bay drafting him 3 weeks ago?
NFL’s most anticipated games for 2014
The 2014 NFL season cannot get here fast enough for me or any other NFL fan for that matter. The draft is almost here and that is outstanding.

Julius Peppers signs with the Green Bay Packers
Julius Peppers was MIA a lot this past year, and I don't mean Miami. Peppers was so ineffective and non-existent in the Chicago Bears defense at times that even the homers who masquerade as journalists on the local television stations called him out. Later in the season Peppers started to turn it around a bit, but nowhere near enough to justify his massive salary. Well, he's … [Read more...] about Julius Peppers signs with the Green Bay Packers
Packers re-sign CB Sam Shields, four years, $39 million
The Green Bay Packers will keep Sam Shields in place next year as they try to revamp a beleaguered secondary. Pass defense was not exactly the Pack's strong suit, and perhaps retaining Sam Shields will be a step in the right direction towards improving that. At least it does augment the concept of continuity on the defense. … [Read more...] about Packers re-sign CB Sam Shields, four years, $39 million
