Official 2023 Training Camp thread

Let's start a rumor that Davis is retiring because Rodgers is a pain in the ass. It doesnt have to make sense to catch on.

Bad luck for them, though. Rodgers + a full stable of WRs is to be a nightmare in the AFCE. Davis and Wilson were going to be an incredible duo. Now they have one stud receiver and a couple former Packers who will have to put together a lot of great play to replace Davis.

Almost 1/4 of the roster opted out of practice today. When will they make it mandatory!

they're tired of eberflus deathcamp practice. so he let them all skip practice

 

[Les Grossman]

You mean the role that they already had Cordarelle Patterson for, but they let him go?

Yes. Patterson was getting paid quite well here in CHI. That's prob why he was not brought back.

Confirmed Aaron Rodgers is a team cancer

I didn't watch other than maybe the first two minutes.....

But 21 minutes on Teven's calfs?

Think we've hit the point of too much "content".

Both Velus and Dazz Newsome were a focus to have that gadget/ST player. It's a strange thing to spend that kinda draft capital tho

Newsome was a 6th rounder so not a lot of draft capital.

Hester was a 2nd rounder who most never considered would be anything other than a returner. Patterson was a 1st rounder. Sona 3rd rounder is a bit rich it not ridiculously so.

Issue was cost. Doesnt make sense for a bottom feeding team to spend like 5m a year on a KR and gadget player as CP didnt even return punts.

To be fair, the coverage may determine what his 1st read is so simply throwing to your 1st open one is reading the field. It usually doesn't suddenly get easier when a different QB comes in.

True, true!!

Or if it’s really that much an injury to begin with

OL coach said its day to day.

 

[pdxbearsfan]

Yeah nothing you say is wrong, and I get the business aspect of it. I also get that he can sell the home (though honestly most professional athletes overpay and end up taking an "L" when they sell their homes). I am not even forgetting that his last full season on the field, he didn't play particularly well.

I just mean personally, losing a family member, being expected to be physically elite when you're broken on the inside, followed by the first injury and then getting cut, followed by the second injury. Life is tough sometimes (for everyone, I know).

The Bears would be smart to offer him a 1 year prove it deal. Imagine a healthy Tarik returning punts and flying in 4 WR sets!

I love it! Aaron even looks like a prick in sweats on the sideline with his permanent smirk.

It's really fucking hot and gross out. Like heat warning level. My windows were fogging up. I'd take the day off too. But I don't like the rash of injuries, for sure.

I mean, having worked outside all day, that heat is no joke. Kind of hard to give it all you've got when people start dropping of heat stroke. And I'm just a delivery driver. I can't even imagine trying to run around for 2 hours.

Lots of my customers were shorthanded as people called off work in droves today.
