Freeman is making Ponder look exciting.

Josh Freeman clearly just needed a change of scenery/coach/team/jersey color/whatever

In all seriousness, it actually might be.

Maybe Josh Freeman isn't the answer.

5 years, $45M (17.8 guaranteed) for Greg Jennings.

Cap numbers are $7M next year and $11M in 2015, 16, and 17.

Ouch.

In a way, he is still a great asset to the Packers!

Freeman was so bad that I am actually interested in watching him play again. He makes Joe Schmo believe he can throw the pigskin around an NFL field.  :D

Honestly, games like this one are a good reason they should be able to change the Monday Night football game each week if it looks to be a poor matchup.

That is just not logistically/fiscally possible to do on a weekly basis.

We feel so bad for you.

Sincerely,
Packers fans of 2010 and 2013

The Packers actually have/had depth. That's the difference.

He will be cut long before the end of that contract. 

He had three starting quarterbacks in his seven years in Green Bay, a number he equaled in his sixth game in Minnesota.

Lions fans are not allowed to ever talk smack about how bad another team is.    But if I were, it would be...... LOL, Vikings!

Almost had 'em last night!

Nice tune up for Josh. Looks like he's just one week away.

What an incredible comeback story for him and the team this will be!
Thanks for ruining summer, Canada.

If by had depth you mean taking unsigned free agents like Erich Walden and Frank zombie and starting them throughout a Super Bowl run then I agree with you.

The 2010 Packers' injury issues were way overrated.  Rodgers started 15 games.  Driver, Jones, Nelson and Jennings missed a grand total of one game between them all.  Four of the five OL started all year, and Bulaga started the year on the bench but started 12 games after Tauscher got hurt.  Of the entire defense, all but one position had the same starter 12+ games including Matthews, Collins, Tramon, Woodson and BJ starting all 16.

Yeah, they had a lot of guys on IR, but many of those weren't terribly important and they overlapped the same position.  Probably the most significant injury that significantly downgraded a position was Jermichael Finley.

This year is much much worse.

Walden only started 2 games that season but went on to start 25 games over the next 2 seasons. IOW, he became a starter. Zombo had 5 tackles and a sack in the SB. When starters go down and back-ups fill the void, that's called depth.
