I think GB12 said that he went alphabetical and just got to a point where he couldn't put anymore on. Nothing personal.

Pretty much. I just wanted to replace the old one so I made that one quickly. I just put the first players I thought of on alphabetically. I'll change it in a couple days anyway.
And you need to change your sig. That is way too big.

They're saying Perry will coach the safeties and Whitt (sp) will likely coach the corner backs.

Thats part of it.
Certain coverages will make it different responsibilties.
If he's on the weakside I'd assume it's the Weakside ILB if he's athletic enough.
Same with the SILB. We're Spoiled in Pitt with Timmons at the "Mack" and Farrior at the Buck... both are athletic enough to cover every TE in the league save Winslow. Winslow is the only guy we really utilize the SS on.

As for Perry, it looks like they're really trying to mimick the Steelers Defense.
Greene has been a TC assistant the past 3-5 years or so, working with the DE's, LB's on passrushing and run stopping techniques.
So has Joe Greene.
Perry was an excellent safety and a pretty good coach. We let him go due to a DUI.
Greene, Perry and Capers.. You guys are really trying to build the Steelers defense. Good luck.

Packers hire Dave Redding as Strength and Conditioning coach.
Quote:
Redding will continue much of the same free-weight techniques that Gullickson employed, but McCarthy's hope is that he will create a more comfortable environment for the players. Sources have said that McCarthy's main reason for replacing Gullickson was that he did not think players were responding well to the program and needed to make a change.
Redding has received numerous honors for his work, including several yearly honors as strength and conditioning coach of the year. In 2006, he was inducted into the USA Strength and Conditioning Coaches' Hall of Fame.

Hawk looks like Kevin Greene's love-child. Thankfully these guys made a lot of money through football. lest they'd have to take stop 9 and a 1/2 and go back to Hogwart's to provide security...

Loving the pick ups in coaches so far, very impressive pedigree's they have.
I think the transition may take a while and there will be some teething problems, but in general I'm confident that in a few years time it will have been very successful and we will have ourselves a very strong D with a more than competent offense.

I too am excited about our defense for this year and years to come. I feel really good about how young we are and how talented we've looked at times. The biggest thing we need now is a killer instinct. Not being able to close against Tennessee and Carolina among others really hurt us. Hopefully all of the new faces on the defensive staff can give our entire team a much needed toughness.

Oh no. Favre won't speak with Rodgers... What a self-absorbed a hole he is. Be prepared to hear about this on ESPN.

Im not surprised about this at all. Favre held out to play for the Packers and couldn't because Rodgers was the guy. Favre wanted GB to himself always.

If you got fired and replaced by one of your friends, wouldn't you be pissed? Especially if your friend was directly responsible for you losing your job?

Let's just not talk about Favre or the ordeal that took up last off-season. Time to move on; who cares if he doesn't want to talk to Rodgers.

QFT. Unless it is time for the HOF or he shows up for his former teammates, not interested. Right now I want to hear about him as much as I do Joe Namath.

God I agree with that post above..
Anyways, with all the Hall of Fame stuff going on I was wondering a few things. Do the Packers have any HOF'ers? I mean C. Woodson as revived his career and has pretty solid stats, but I don't see anyone else who could even be in discussion right now.
As far as the Packer's Hall of Fame, Mr. Driver is a lock..anyone else?

The fact that only 10 of our players are over the age of 26 might have something to do with that.
Obviously because of that it's way too early to include any of them, but Jennings is on the right path. If anyone currently on the team would make it he's the best bet. Through his first 3 years he has twice as many yards and TDs than hall of famer Michael Irvin did. And his 12 TDs is 2007 is more than Irvin ever had in a single season.
