RIP Mech

 

[Pinchable Buttocks]

Packers gonna get creamed week 1.

Book it.

Spoiler

Because they always do.

 

[captive]

lol brian hoyer named the starter.

 

[captive]

Nick Wright right now telling it like it is. "The reason you didn't see a single deep throw by mallet in preseason is because Hoyer was and is the starter from the start.

I agree 100%.

 

[MRSA]

Poor Mech.

 

[Malalaw]

Poor Mech.

What happened?

[Malalaw]

It'll be OK. Eli Manning is gonna be starting for the Texans next year!

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

But I am the troll for showing a lack of confidence in Mallett, right Mech?

trolling and being right aren't mutually exclusive.


I wanted Mallet not because he's going to be super awesome. But because we know what Hoyer can do, we don't know what Mallet can do. He's had two starts, one of which was with a torn peck.

 

[Dega]

Hoyer will do better here.

Oh Mech..

Stay strong Mech.

Too much seahawks talk

Lets talk about cofy instead

The Hoyer news is infinitely worse than the Jordy news of you are a fan of either team.

I'm okay with it

I'm okay with it

To be fair no matter who was named starter it would have been infinitely worse than the Jordy news.

its ok ez. Rodgers will somehow figure out how to target black receivers.

What's this about?

stock market crashing.

Hoy Hoy. The controversy is over!

Packers should trade for Rishard Matthews (not joking).

*checks google finance*

WELL DAMN

stock market crashing.

We can blame cajun for this! Stupid Asian markets tanking causing worldwide stocks to plummet.

Maybe banning cajun was the cause of all this?

 

[RellyRell28]

Stephen A makes me facepalm 2 minutes into First Take by saying Jordy's injury on a scale of 1-10 is a 9. It's Green Bay their receivers haven't been a star since Sterling Sharpe.

 

[eznark]

Worst kept secret in football is that Randall Cobb is actually the whitest receiver in the league. Davante Adams is also pretty damn white.

Our "blackest" receiver (on the Urkel - FMT scale) is White.

HOHOYER

Called it.

Jordy is an insane talent, if you think his production is all Rodgers then you are flat out wrong. The Packers will still have a great offense but they will feel this loss.

It's not 9 worthy. I'd say a 4 maybe a 3.

 

[eznark]

I remember when Greg Jennings was an insane talent. It's not about the guy being talented, it's about him playing a supremely replaceable (and QB dependent) position. Unfortunately the Packers have the worst QB in history and Flynn aint walking through that door.

I ran through the depth chart yesterday and he was about 15th on the list of Packers I'd least like to see out for the year. It sucks, but it's nowhere near as catastrophic as say, the Nick Collins injury.

Fair enough. I'd say it's a 6 or 7.

We'll see. I know your feelings on the WR position but I think it's hard not to feel a dropoff from Jordy Nelson, one of the best WRs in the league, to Jeff Janis. Do you have faith in anyone other than Cobb and Adams?

The Packers let go of Jennings on their own terms. I don't think this situation is comparable.

 

[RellyRell28]

And Green Bay's officially reaching out to Reggie Wayne

 

[MechDX]

I feel like the Astros have a great shot at the pennant this year.

 

[BigAT]

Has anyone checked in on Caste Football to see if they're alright? They must be devastated from the Jordy news.

 

[squicken]

Congrats to BG and his boy Hoyer

Sympathies to mech. Texans should have drafted JFF

Why? You think there will be some psychological trauma or something? The Packers were going to have to cut a talented wide out in White or Janis. Now they don't. Will there be a drop off? Of course. But the reality is it means 30 more balls for Cobb, 20 for Adams and Rogers needing to as well as he has shown in the past. This was going to be a huge year for him anyway, now it got bigger.

I'm not even slightly concerned about the wide out position. What I am concerned about is that RR will trip on his dick and we'll be forced to watch God's Gift drag his idiot knuckles all over the field and drool on the football.

The Packers will score 2 fewer points a game but they are about 5 points better than every team in football and 15 points better than any team in the NFCN.


(My real concern is that the additional touches will result in injury to Cobb)

I would take JFF over the bald headed, shit stain, fuckhead that is Brian Fucking Hoyer

Paul Noonan @BadgerNoonan
Per Pro Football Focus, Reggie Wayne graded out 106th of 110 WRs last year with a -10.3. He was 71st in DVOA. All with an excellent QB.

Fire Ted Thompson

Here:

The best offense has been reduced to the best offense. Green Bay weeps and the NFCN celebrates while we all know who will be ho-humming their way through another conference championship.
