A Tuesday trip to the question department

Funny how things can change in a week, isn’t it?

At this time last week, there was almost nothing going on with the Green Bay Packers. I mean, I was writing 1,100-word posts on the “Lombardi” movie to pass the time, for God’s sake - and that movie won’t even come out until roughly two years from now!

Thompson shows he's willing to go for it by handing out Collins and Pickett extensions

Say what you want about Ted Thompson.

But no longer can you say he doesn’t want to put the Green Bay Packers over the top.

I say that because, as many of you know by now, it was announced Friday that free safety Nick Collins and defensive tackle Ryan Pickett had both agreed to long-term extensions with [...]

Clifton's signing brings some stability, but changes still in store for o-line

Friday, 11:50 p.m.

For pretty much the entire afternoon today, it was sort of looking grim if you are a fan of the Green Bay Packers.

Green Bay’s starting left tackle, Chad Clifton, was visiting with the Washington Redskins. The ‘Skins need a left tackle and have an owner (Daniel Snyder) who loves to overpay for aging [...]

Best guesses on Kampman, Cliffy and Tausch

As of now, it’s 11:00 p.m. Lambeau Time, meaning we are now officially at the start of the free agent signing period.

And as of now, the Green Bay Packers’ three biggest unrestricted free agents – defensive end/outside linebacker Aaron Kampman, left tackle Chad Clifton and right tackle Mark Tauscher – remain unsigned.

Will any of them be [...]

Offensive line jumble must be resolved

(After taking an ever-so-brief post-Super Bowl sabbatical, I’m back, baby! Also, was anyone else seriously bumming for a minute there that the season was over? Tell me it was not just me!)

This week, Green Bay Press Gazette assistant sports editor Tom Pelissero kicked off his 10-part daily series of chats on “The State of the Packers.” [...]

Offseason to-do list (conclusion): Potential free agent targets for Green Bay

So, we’ve just about covered the current in-house situation for the Green Bay Packers with regards to their upcoming free agents and the players who could be released.

But what about some players, currently on other teams, who might be able to help the Pack next season?

That’s the focus of the final part of our post-season, pre-draft to-do [...]

Offseason to-do list, part one: Green Bay's unrestricted free agents

It’s time.

That’s right, fans - it’s time to start talking Green Bay Packers offseason plans. The 2009 season is over-and-done with and the 2010 offseason is rapidly approaching.

This looks to be one of the busiest offseasons in recent memory for the Pack. As of now, the team has a total of 17 players scheduled for free agency, [...]

Thompson hospitalized

A scary situation at practice today with OLB Jeremy Thompson being taken away by an ambulance after suffering a neck stinger. Jason Wilde of ESPN Milwaukee has done a good job covering the story so far, so we’ll direct you to him.

Also, sounds like T.J. Lang may unavailable Mondayafter suffering a concussion yesterday and with [...]

Mid-week report: Injury update, etc.

It’s been exactly one week since we’ve hit you with any actual news regarding the Green Bay Packers.

Well, we’re back.

And what better way to kick-off our Mid-week report (weird saying that since, you know, it’s Thursday) with an injury update, courtesy of the fine folks at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

The Packers are almost as healthy [...]

Wednesday wrap-up: Green Bay getting healthy, etc.

The Green Bay Packers were back at work Wednesday, their win over Dallas behind them and an extremely important home game with San Francisco ahead.

As they prepare for this vital contest, they finally seem to be swinging the good health pendulum their way.

An injury update now, courtesy of the fine folks at the Milwaukee Journal [...]
