    Yeah. Only sad thing about it is the era I grew up watching will be over when he retires. 

    lol you get used to that. i was in my 30s when he started playing.

    the people i watched growing up have been retired for decades.

    Feel like the NFL doesn’t really like Rodgers or I would expect a Peyton Manning final season where they make it to the Super Bowl. 

    they are probably ready to be done with him. 

    i know they aren't looking forward to the HoF discussion that you know will come up at some point. the question is, will any team want to claim him?

  3. i don't see them blending well at all there. 

    rodgers has this perception of himself that he's a bit better than everyone around him in all ways. not exactly what i would call a team player. he's going to be acting as if the team is lukcy to have someone like him there. 

    i'm sure when he's there the narrative will be "we're all one here" but i really can't see any kind of real cohesion there between him and the rest of the team.

  4. guy legit had hall of fame talent. 

    guy should also have been put into a mental institution early on. 

    i mean he had a bit of a "not quite right in the head" reputation before he got here. it was passed off as "he's kind of an artist" so you'd look at him and think he's just complex. my wife and kids will bring me necklaces that are all knotted up and are pretty much impossible to untangle. they are impossible to untangle because they are complex knots. complex is sometimes code for a fuggin mess. that's hardy. a fuggin mess.

    I think Horn is probably going to be used as the primary PR to start the season, and maybe they will incorporate him into some jet sweeps, etc.

    My hope is that he follows the Smitty path of being the returner and then getting incorporated into the rest of the offense.

    Separation for the most part was still a major issue last year with our WRs.

    Hopefully Horn can help with that in the long-term as well as adding much needed speed in general to the WR group

     

    probably horn and etienne will end up with the majority of return duties.

    Something I thought was interesting about the Horn Jr pick.  Candles didn't seem very impressed and Dan Morgan wanted "some Miami" in the room/building. I think a difference in perspective between them for late round picks. Dan valued the dang in him, Canales less interested because holes in his game. 

     

    Note : all this is based on my dumbass reaction to a 10 second snippet.

    Sounded like Morgan wanted to have a hype phone call moment to end the draft and nobody, including Horn, was nearly as interested in making it happen.

    it's easy to read too much into it.

    i think at this point everyone is likely tired because this is the culmination of months of hard work and they finally get to the end and the hype is worn off. you feel good about what you've done and it's a big deal, but it's more just being able to breathe again because you realize that you haven't done it for a while. for horn, it's been all about the waiting and he finally doesn't have to wonder where he will be. 

    i don't think it's anything beyond that.  i'm sure canales is happy to have horn,jr. here. i'm sure that horn is happy to be here.

    McAfee again...

    Looks like he was a big fan.

    I forgot to mention this- When you get videos like this, why care about toxic hard knocks??

    i think that's one of the things they talk about in the McAfee video. since teams are releasing stuff like this, it's cutting down on the appeal of hard knocks.
