David Gettis? He was better than Lafell his rookie season and we get him back this year. He could be a solid player for years to come.

Just.. figured.. the forum could.. use a happy.. thread.. since well.. you know.. all the others suck.

It will be nice to have him in the mix but he and Lafell were very close in production in a situation where defenses really didn't have to be concerned about the pass at all. In a more complex and featured passing game we will see how he stacks up.

I like Gettis and hope he becomes a baller at WR, but his biggest game as a rookie where he accumulated half of his stats came against SF (which had probably the worst secondary in the league two years ago), and had Matt Moore throwing to him, not Jimmy Clausen. So you can't really use the "he was awesome even with Jimmy throwing him the ball" argument, because he was wildly mediocre the rest of the games.

ahh i dont wanna be a troll, in all seriousness gettis is what 6'4"? i sure hope he explodes this year cause we could def use a big wr to fit our offense... and we all know Cam makes everyone around him better, so heres to hoping he becomes another big playmaker for us

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
