Today is a significant in the Green Bay Packers’ (and the NFL) off-season.  Today, March 8th at 3pm Central Time is the deadline for any team in the NFL to designate one player they want to franchise tag. Davante Adams is atop the list for potential candidates to be franchise tagged today. According to Dan Graziano of ESPN, the Packers and Adams have talked about a new contract but haven’t made “much progress,” and the team isn’t going to let him get to free agency even if Aaron Rodgers decides he wants to depart Green Bay. If the tag was…

The Green Bay Packers star offensive tackle experienced one of the greatest days in a man’s (or woman’s) life today.  He married his long time fiance Frankie Shebby in a gorgeous wedding venue in California.

As if this off-season (which just began) hasn’t been stressful enough for Packers fans, there is now more to add onto the Aaron Rodgers story.  Since the 2021 regular season, it was reported that the Denver Broncos would make a push for Aaron Rodgers.  However we have yet to hear any reports of those pushes impacting Rodgers’ decision, until now: https://twitter.com/JFowlerESPN/status/1500476864997040133?s=20&t=wsOWp9SVVRa4MluXRiF5Ew Jeremy Fowler, an ESPN Senior NFL reporter, announced that the Broncos have caught Rodgers’ eye more than we originally thought.  Green bay has made it obvious since last off-season they are willing to make Aaron Rodgers the highest paid…

Today will mark the last time Brad Davison puts on a Badgers jersey at the Kohl Center. Once the regular season finale hits 0:00 on the clock, he will have appeared in a school record 158 games since his freshman year in 2017.  In that time he has not only set school records, but become one of the greatest on-court leaders in Wisconsin Men’s Basketball history.

Over the last 24 to 36 hours reports are that Aaron Rodgers is truly “torn” on where he wants to play in 2022.  After 17 seasons in Green Bay, many Packers fan see this as a slap in the face.   We understand loyalty only goes so far in professional sports, however this feels different.  Aaron Rodgers has been the face of this franchise for a decade and a half and knows what he means to not only the city, but the state of Wisconsin.  Feeling as though he could just up and leave after being on the brink of a…

Bobby Portis and has been having a career year ever since he chose to stay in Milwaukee.  Both offensive and defensive Bobby has shown out in 2021-2022.  Tonight was no different.  As Zach LaVine drives to the hoop late in the second quarter, Bobby Portis had something to say: https://twitter.com/LilySZhao/status/1499922439488389120?s=20&t=qOfoQeW1cdbKOQtk2hEScQ These are the championship type of plays that won the title for the Bucks last year.  Bobby is proving to be one of the best signings of the 2021 off-season (even thought he stayed with Milwaukee).

It was reported that Amari Cooper will most likely be traded or released by the Dallas Cowboys before March 20th.  This is the first major news of the 2022 offseason.  Amari Cooper is only 27 years old, already has four 1,000 yard seasons, and is a true number one wide receiver. The reaction from many Packers fans will be that Green Bay cannot afford to bring in Cooper. However, here is why they are wrong. Contract Situation: https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1499807744819437577?s=20&t=qOfoQeW1cdbKOQtk2hEScQ It will be tough for Dallas to find anyone to trade for Amari Cooper.  A wide receiver counting for $20 million against…

Looking ahead to the Green Bay Packers’ 2022 schedule, the quarterbacks they’re set to face are an interesting bunch.  It’s rare you can decipher all the starting quarterbacks you will see a year out. However, the Packers’  opposing QBs only have a few question marks. The Obvious: Chicago Bears: Justin Fields (x2) Minnesota Vikings: Kirk Cousins (x2) Detroit Lions: Jared Goff (x2). All signs point to him being under center one more year in Detroit New England Patriots: Mac Jones Dallas Cowboys: Dak Prescott Buffalo Bills: Josh Allen Miami Dolphins: Tua Tagovailoa (The Dolphins have made it clear they’re committed…
