House to sign with Jacksonville

March 10, 2015 By Bill Scott

If the Green Bay Packers wanted Davon House back, they weren’t willing to show him the money.

After receiving offers from multiple teams, House will sign a free agent contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars.  The deal is worth $25 million over four years and includes $10 million in guaranteed money.

According to FoxSportsWisconsin.com, the Packers were only willing to offer House $17 million for four years and $5 million guaranteed.

House will be joining his former college head coach at New Mexico State, DeWayne Walker.  Walker is the new defensive backs coach with the Jaguars.

The Packers other option at defensive back is re-signing veteran Tramon Williams.  If they don’t up the ante on Williams, the Packers are facing losing both of their free-agent corners.

Free Agency officially begins at 3 p.m. this afternoon.

The Green Bay Packers have decided that Scott Tolzien is ready to take over the reigns as the teams backup quarterback behind Aaron Rodgers.

Tolzien agreed to terms on a 1-year, $1.35 million deal on Saturday night (first reported by WTMJ-TV’s Lance Allen).  He’s expected to sign the deal before the start of free agency on Tuesday.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported that the Packers informed Matt Flynn on Sunday that they were going with Tolzien and would not resign him.

Tolzien has been with the Packers since early in the 2013 season, signing the former Badger after the Packers cut Graham Harrell and B.J. Coleman. [Read more…]

Packers Nation shocked with OT loss in Seattle (AUDIO)

Sunday’s 28-22 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks is clearly one of the worst playoff losses in Green Bay Packers history.  It may not top the list, but it’s close.

The Packers dominated play for most of the game, but left the door open just enough for the Seahawks to pull off a 12-point comeback in the final two minutes to force overtime and eventually pull out the win.

While the Packers were busy crushing the spirits of the Seahawks, they were missing opportunities to put the Seahawks away.  They settled for field goals instead of scoring touchdowns early on, yet still led 16-0 at halftime and 19-7 with just under four minutes to play.

Seattle fans were starting to slowly trickle towards the exits, only to miss a comeback of the ages.

Nothing went right for Russell Wilson until the fourth quarter.  He had thrown four interceptions as the Seahawks offense was suffocating against the Packers defense.  [Read more…]

Packers could be without starting corners on Sunday

Both Tramon Williams (ankle) and Sam Shields (knee) didn’t practice for a second straight day on Thursday and their status for Sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers is in doubt.

Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy told reporters on Thursday that there was no change in the two players’ status from Wednesday.  Then, he said Williams was ahead of Shields in recovering from their injuries.

The Packers don’t practice today, but will work tomorrow before facing the Panthers on Sunday.

Defensive end Datone Jones (ankle) also didn’t practice on Thursday after trying to give his ankle a go on Wednesday.  Mike McCarthy said, “He made some progress at practice Saturday, but it’s not coming along.”

If Shields and Williams are unable to play Sunday, Davon House and Casey Hayward would take their place in the starting lineup. [Read more…]

Rodgers earns comeback win in 100th game for Packers

October 13, 2014 By Bill Scott

Aaron Rodgers

Aaron Rodgers

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers may be one the best quarterback in the NFL, maybe the best, but he celebrated Sunday’s come-from-behind 27-24 win over the Miami Dolphins as if it were one of his first victories.

Rodgers led the Packers to a field goal and then a 4-yard touchdown pass to Andrew Quarless with three-seconds left to complete the comeback.

In his career, Rodgers has only 10 game-winning drives, defined as games where the Packers trailed and he led them to the go-ahead score in the fourth quarter, and they never gave up that lead.

The Packers had 2:04 left and no timeouts when they got the football for the last time.  They had to go 60-yards to score a touchdown and win.  Plenty of time for Rodgers right?

The Packers not only scored that touchdown, but they left just three-second on the clock.

Rodgers game-winning drive included a little of almost everything.  It had a fourth down conversion when Rodgers found Jordy Nelson.  But that play wouldn’t have even happened if it wasn’t for right guard T.J. Lang, who recovered an Aaron Rodgers fumble the play before. [Read more…]

Tramon Williams started his career on the Packers Practice Squad

Tramon Williams started his career on the Packers Practice Squad

The NFL and the NFLPA announced Tuesday, teams can add two more players to their Practice Squad, going from eight to ten players.

The expansion of the Practice Squads covers the next two seasons and means a total of 64 more jobs will be available around the league in each of the next two years.

The league also announced that each team will be able to sign two players “who have earned no more than two accrued seasons of free agency credit.”  Otherwise players who have earned one or more accrued seasons would not be eligible for the practice squad unless they spent fewer than nine games on the 46-man gameday roster during those seasons.

Practice Squad players will earn a minimum salary of $6,300 each week, totaling $107,100 whould they hold on for all 17 weeks of the regular season.

With the Green Bay Packers last season, Myles White, Jake Stoneburner and Jumal Rolle all spent time on the Packers Practice Squad before signing onto the active roster last season.

Williams says he’ll appeal NFL fine

December 6, 2013 By Bill Scott

Green Bay Packers defensive back Tramon Williams was fined $26,250 for his contact with an official in Green Bay’s 40-10 loss to the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Day.

Williams said he thought the official that he shoved was a Lions player.  He drew a 15-yard penalty but after the game said it was a “total misunderstanding.

Williams said he would appeal.

Cheap tickets

If you want to put up with cold weather and potentially some bad football, a Packers game has become a bargain.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel says “SeatGeek”, an online ticket search engine is reporting tickets for the Packers/Falcons noon game at Lambeau Field on Sunday are going for as little as $37 a ticket.  The average price fans have paid for a ticket so far this week is $64.

The story said, “Since Aaron Rodgers was injured against the Bears on Nov. 4, the average resale price for Packers tickets has dropped 38%.”

Game time

A reminder to fans.  Sunday’s game was originally scheduled to start around 7:30, but the NFL used their Flex option on the game and moved the Packers out of the night-time slot, all the way to noon for a better game.

Tashaun Gipson was flagged for his hit on Jermichael Finley that knocked the Green Bay Packers tight end out of Sunday’s 31-13 win over the Cleveland Browns.

A second glance at the play on replay would show you that Gibson did nothing wrong.

Here’s my thoughts on the issue, along with some of the thoughts of Packers Def. Back Tramon Williams.

McCarthy still waiting for a return man to step up (AUDIO)

August 1, 2013 By Bill Scott

With Greg Jennings in Minnesota and Donald Driver retired, Randall Cobb’s roll in the Green Bay Packers offense will be bigger this year.  That is why Head Coach Mike McCarthy would like to take him of special teams.

The problem is, no one as emerged to take that role.  The Packers have worked out numerous players in the return spots so far in camp, however, Cobb remains the best option…

After Monday’s scheduled off day, the Green Bay Packers were back on the practice field Tuesday morning for full pad workout.

In year’s past, Head Coach Mike McCarthy hasn’t been pleased with the first practice after an off day.  However, Tuesday’s work was different.  McCarthy seemed pleased with the effort of his players put into the practice…
