Green Bay Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy publishes a weekly column on Packers.com that answers fan questions. One of these questions centered on the “butt push” quarterback sneak that allowed Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts to score an easy touchdown in the Super Bowl. Since that play, many have called the play unfair and want it banned. It appears that Murphy is among those that would like to see it go away. Green Bay Packers President Mark Murphy Answers the Question Honestly From Murphy’s column: Patrick from Murfreesboro, TN. What do you think of the rugby-style push plays? Seems…

The Green Bay Packers are facing an offseason that sees them needing to fill a variety of positional needs. One of these is edge rusher, which became a concern after Rashan Gary went down with a torn ACL last season. While Preston Smith will be back thanks to a contract restructure and Kingsley Enagbare played well when Gary went down, depth at the position is a very apparent need. While the team will still explore their options in free agency and the NFL Draft, general manager Brian Gutekunst recently gave the media a positive update on Gary’s recovery. Green Bay…

The Milwaukee Brewers’ all-time home run leaders span all era of the franchise’s history. From the early days of the 70’s, the competitive 80’s, the lowly 90’s and 2000’s, to recent teams, there are plenty of long balls and memories to be found on this list. 1. Ryan Braun: Career Home Runs with the Brewers- 352 2007 NL Rookie of the Year 2011 NL MVP Six seasons with 30+ home runs Six-time All-Star 2012 NL Home Run Leader (41) #2.

The Green Bay Packers have gotten under the salary cap thanks to Aaron Jones’ pay cut and contract restructures for Kenny Clark and Jaire Alexander. Additionally, reports indicate that the team will also restructure David Bakhtiari’s contract to free up even more money. Further money could be freed up with a trade of Aaron Rodgers, but as that is not a guaranteed transaction as of right now, that will not figure into this scenario. The purpose of all of these financial moves served two purposes. First, it got the team under the salary cap. Second, they now have available space…

The Green Bay Packers are not favored to win the NFC North next season. Of course, they fell short of winning it this season as well. The Minnesota Vikings won it with a 13-4 record as the only team in the NFC North with a winning record. For what’s it’s worth, Packers fans, they are not favored to win it either. Of course, neither are the lowly Chicago Bears who have the number one pick in the 2023 NFL Draft after finishing with the league’s worst record last season. That’s right, that leaves the Detroit Lions, who have never won…

The Green Bay Packers have many questions surrounding the return of certain players from last season. Aaron Rodgers aside, there are several key veterans that are now free agents and may not return. On Tuesday, Brian Gutekunst addressed the media at the NFL Combine. When answering questions regarding the Packers’ situation at kicker, he all but guaranteed that the franchise’s all-time leading scorer, Mason Crosby, would be back in 2023. The Green Bay Packers Expect Mason Crosby to Return in 2023 For a good portion of the 2022 season, there was speculation that it was Crosby’s last season in Green…

The Milwaukee Bucks have won 16 games in a row, went undefeated in February, and acquired Jae Crowder in a trade with the Brooklyn Nets. Prior to being considered a Net, Crowder was under contract with the Phoenix Suns, whom he refused to play for this season. When asked if he would do anything different by Michael Scotto of Hoops Hype, Crowder responded: “I’d do it all over again.” Jae Crowder Was Trying to Get to the Milwaukee Bucks In his interview with Scotto, Crowder opened up about the long, drawn-out process that led him to where he wanted to be: “I…

Aaron Rodgers has not made a decision on whether or not he wants to play in 2023. If he does decide to play, it is entirely possible that the Green Bay Packers may trade him to move onto Jordan Love as their starting quarterback. Earlier this week, former NFL wide receiver Brandon Marshall caused a stir on social media when he posted a “Happy Retirement” tribute to Rodgers on Instagram. It was all in jest, but it sure put Marshall’s name out there like it hasn’t been since, well, ever. Now, Marshall is claiming that four NFL general managers have…

Milwaukee Brewers rookie outfielder Garrett Mitchell is off to a torrid start to Spring Training. Though early, he is hitting .444/.444/1.096 with two home runs and five RBI. With Tyrone Taylor expected to miss the first month of the season, it is entirely possible that Mitchell will enter 2023 as the Brewers’ starting centerfielder. After hitting .311/.373/.459 in his first taste of Big League action, expectations are high going into what will be his full rookie campaign. Mike Heller of 97.3 The Game was able to discuss the offseason and these expectations with Mitchell on Thursday. Garrett Mitchell Is Approaching…

The Green Bay Packers have a number of players that are hitting free agency this month. Some, like Yosh Nijman, are restricted free agents and will likely be retained. Still others will be unrestricted free agents and will hit the open market, leaving their future with the Packers in question. Among these is All-Pro kick returner Keisean Nixon who set several franchise records despite returning kicks for only half of the season. Despite his accolades as a returner, Nixon was not named one of the top 101 free agents by NFL.com. Two other Packers players were, though. #72. Allen Lazard…
