Tuesday was the first of two scheduled cutdown days for NFL teams, with every team mandated to get down from 80 to 75 players.
The Green Bay Packers took a different approach. They cut no one.
Instead, the Packers placed three players on the PUP list and one more on injured reserve (they had only 79 players [...]
With the “dress rehearsal” preseason game – i.e., game No. 3 – against the Indianapolis Colts just five days away, Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy took a cautious approach Saturday night against the Seattle Seahawks.
In other words, a lot of players didn’t play.
The entire starting linebacking corps was out, for example, as were [...]
Folks, I got to the line of scrimmage, saw the look of the defense and decided I didn’t like the play. That’s right – I’m calling an audible.
I decided to pass on cooking up a batch of training camp stew for Tuesday, even though the Green Bay Packers practiced twice. The Stew will return Thursday night, [...]
And we’re back with yet another heaping helping of training camp stew, your nightly recap of the most interesting bits of information from today’s practice.
The Green Bay Packers practiced just once Monday, but there was still quite a bit going on. Let’s get to that now, shall we?

So, six practices in – how are the Green Bay Packers looking?
In short, similar to most teams at this point. The defense is ahead of the offense, which is almost always the case at any level of football six practices in to a season. OTA/minicamps only do so much for keeping a rhythm, after all, [...]
One of the best parts of training camp involves the battles waged between teammates.

The 2010 Green Bay Packers will have a handful of such battles in training camp this year. [...]
Look a little closer and you’ll see that this group has the chance to make a rather significant impact, both next season and for years to [...]
But such is the case with the Green Bay Packers and the four players they took to close the 2010 NFL Draft. Each of those players, in their own way, will alter the Pack’s [...]
The Green Bay Packers’ 2010 draft is complete.
The Pack’s final two selections focused equally on offense and defense. In the sixth round, Green Bay selected Buffalo running back James Starks (No. 193 overall). With their final pick of the draft, the Packers took East Carolina defensive end C.J. Wilson (No. 230 overall).
First, Starks. Here’s what we know [...]
Funny how things can change in a week, isn’t it?
At this time last week, there was almost nothing going on with the Green Bay Packers. I mean, I was writing 1,100-word posts on the “Lombardi” movie to pass the time, for God’s sake - and that movie won’t even come out until roughly two years from now!
