3 of them to D-Hop. Look at that, throw the ball to your best receiver, the receiver will make plays. Someone should let Tannehill know.

4 catches, 128yrds 3 TDs. D-Hop is one of the few truly uncoverable receivers in the league.

This is why I wish DeVante Adams wanted to stay in Green Bay. They offered him the same contract...

Had a great time at Lambeau yesterday....what a great place to watch a football game. Surprised by how friendly Packer fans were towards the many Vikings fans in attendance.

Losing Cousins obviously sucks and any hope of getting back into the playoff race is now gone. I say let's give Hall an opportunity to show what he has and let the chips fall where they may. Best case, Hall shows us that he has something we can work with in the future, worst case we get better draft positioning.

Or Minnesota case , Hall is just good enough to drag us to 7-10 where we end up drafting just outside the range of landing a qb with realistic upside.

I wouldn't have a problem with this if Hall plays well enough to show that he could be the legitimate starter going forward.

Absolute worst case scenario: Hall looks awful, but team manages to eek out wins in spite of him.

Anyone think they pull a wild card and try to trade for Kyler? Doesn't seem impossible. Not saying I agree with it, but I could see them trying.

No. I think KAM would be the kind of guy to atleast explore it, now and in the off season but at the end of the day i dont see it happening. We trade for him we cant resign all of JJ, Darrisaw and Hunter.

People wanna yell about what Kirk's contract allegedly did to this team, just wait til you see Kyler's going forward. His cap hit is $51,857,000 next year.

Please God, No!

Talk about a Pyrrhic victory. I've been a Cousins critic at times, but he has been playing really well recently, and seemed borderline indestructible. To have him go out on a non contact play late in the game when they are leading by two touchdowns is... .

Basically kills their season, and forces them into a rebuild.

You can’t just look at cap hit. You will need to subtract out money/cap that will remain with AZ.

Take his $51. 8 mill cap charge in 2024. Minus the $5.8 mill signing bonus prorated amount that remains with AZ that he was paid in 2022. As well subtract the $7.2 mill of a signing bonus he was paid in 2023. This $13 mill remains with AZ.

Another team is on the hook for his $37 mill base salary, $850k roster bonus and $1 mill workout bonus for $38.85 mill in cap charge for 2024.

2025, it’s $18 mill base plus $11.9 roster bonus plus $850k roster bonus and $1.85 mill workout bonus. That is $32.6 mill.

Not low numbers but not the $50 odd mill that Murray is showing.

He's a terrible QB that refuses to watch film to learn his craft properly. I do not want him in purple.

Exactly. Honestly he's terrible.

Well, vikings fans, thoughts on Jordan Love. Is he the problem in Green Bay?

This guy (like me) seems to think he's a Trainwreck:

NFL Winners and Losers: Jordan Love draft pick was a fiasco for the Packers

Jordan Love hasn't impressed this season.

[Dr Jan Itor]

It's very satisfying that he's questionable at best right now.

I feel like I didn't gain anything from reading that article. Zero substance. Actually blamed Love for the interception where Reed had it ripped out of his hands. I’m sorry, if the ball hits your receivers hands then the interception is not on the quarterback.

Aaron Rodgers would be throwing an absolute hissy fit if his receivers dropped most of these passes. Aaron Jones, Musgrave, Wicks, Doubs, the Reed interception. All had at least one drop, being a pass they should have caught (not over/under thrown), that would have been a 1st down play. Watson is a shell of himself from last after coming back from his hamstring injury.

It’s a running theme amongst Packer podcasts that it’s tough to even evaluate Love because of the level of incompetence from his receivers.

 

[Northerner]

Sounds like:

Wentz
Tannehill
Or Keenum

Might be options. Or Hall.

Let's see what they decide to do tomorrow ...trick or treat....

 

[Northerner]

My guess is they just roll with Hall. They drafted him after all.

No to all 3, just sink or swim with Hall.

Half of those are poor throws or good defensive plays.

Jamies Winston maybe too. Who I would actually love to see considering we’d watch him sling it 83 yards to JJ and immediately follow that up with a badly thrown 3 yard out that gets brought back for 6. Entertaining to me

Seems to be more than one problem over there. His receivers sure seem to drop the ball a lot more than most. Those can be real momentum killers.
