Re: Five weeks in
I agree that Harrell's injuries are independent of each other but some guys are just more succesptible to injuries, whether it's from poor conditioning or just bad luck. Seems like Harrell might be one of those guys.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Re: Five weeks in
I'm disappointed with TT's ability to shore up our D-Line more than anything. We didn't lose anyone from an O-Line that played fairly well last year, we lost a ton of depth inside in terms of injuries and there has been little done to rectify it. TT should've been far more proactive about shoring up our DT depth instead of relying upon an injury-prone Harrell and a potentially-suspended Jolly.
What sucks most about this is that Favregate could potentially cost TT his job, especially if we finish 6-10. Rodgers has played well, but the only think anyone will remember is that we were 13-3 with Favre and below .500 with Rodgers.

We just signed TT to an extension. We went 4-12 with Favre once upon a time. I see your point, plenty will be calling for his head as they have been, but I still think he's the best man we could have here especially with a little bit of failure in the pot to maybe get him some urgency in the draft and spending.

Re: Five weeks in
can i start calling for his head yet? i'm still mad at him for reaching for the harrell pick, and not trading a 4th round pick for moss , and not signing more free agents, and and and .... i hate drafting injured players in the first round. i also hate gms who draft players in the second round tha t would have still been available in the 5th round. that new punter is looking as bad this year as he did last year. great move TT!
Can we sign shaun Alexander and make me happy?

I certainly don't think he should be fired. I think he's done an admirable job turning a team that was in a mess when he got here into one of the most viably talented teams in the league. We'll be good-to-very-good over the next three or four years. But, the difference between a very good team and a title team is something that TT needs to make a leap for. His conservative strategy has worked very well in terms of rebuilding and restocking the team, but he needs to make a CC-Sabathia-esque run for it...i.e. going after a top flight player/FA or trading up in the draft for a top talent.
