The way they blocked it they could have called anything and it would have been utter disaster. Raji and Matthews were on different sides of the center and they still destroyed their blocks.
If you think Witten went half ass on that play, watch the left tackle, lol
The only Dallas lineman that looked like he tried at all was the center

We have a lot of first rounders starting on our defense
Nick Barnett, AJ Hawk, Clay Matthews, BJ Raji, Ryan Pickett, Charles Woodson
But then on the other side we also have a lot of undrafted starters
Trammon Williams, Cullen Jenkins, Frank Zombo, Atari Bigby

I liked Al but honestly we cant cut a guy for a 36 year old CB coming back from major knee surgery. He was a beast back in the day but now is just an unknown at the end of his time. Its not like we need him because the fill ins have been playing surprising well.

Yeah, it was hilarious to see Raji just plow forward and push both Dallas OLineman to the side. Didn't even look like he was trying hard. He was set up to make the play to stop Barber but Matthews just closed in first

I know it's early to start talking about off season stuff...but; Barnett, Hawk, Bishop. Who's the odd man out next year?

Good question. I hate questions like that though, and hopefully we keep them all.
We know injuries can happen so you need good depth.

Hawk's gone next year.
Barnett and Bishop are the two best ILBs on the team and Hawk is due to make $10 million next season so he'll be cut.

Have Barnett and Bishop ever been on the field together? That could make a pretty dangerous, physical duo.
Also, I'm pretty sure Bishop is a UFA next offseason. He hasn't been happy with us for putting him 3rd or 4th in line to start. Hopefully that changed this year with him starting pretty much the entire year.

Well, Hawk has been playing better this season. IF he agreed to a pay cut, I would like to see him back. He is solid/assignment sure. Could do a lot worse
to be honest, I'm afraid that Cullen Jenkins will be the odd man out this offseason. I fully expect them to lock Tramon up.

Unless he's willing to go under $4 million I don't want to bring him back. Sign Desmond Bishop to a multi-year deal and go with him and Barnett. We still have Chillar as a good backup and coverage man. There's really no need for Hawk there.
If Cullen Jenkins is let go I will be pissed. We just gave Pickett a 4 year $25 million contract this past offseason. Pickett has played really well, but Jenkins is younger and better, it'd be stupid to chose Pickett over Jenkins.

That's a big hit for Collins, but I'm relieved he's not missing the Minnesota game.

Me too!
Better his pocket book than us missing him.
Chillar is the one who's overpaid. I'd rather have Hawk, Bishop, and Barnett.

ya he is over paid, everyone says hes better in pass coverage than Hawk but i remember him gettin burned for 2 tds last year against St louis. I think Hawk is a better option hes been playing alot better this year since Barnett got hurt, i wouldnt mind having them both back but Hawk is making alot of money being a top 5 pic, hoepfully he will take a pay cut next year .

True.
But think of the positives in that...... no more guys going on IR for 12 days at least.

With the way he's playing I wouldn't be so sure of that. Possible? Yes. Forgone conclusion? No.

You can never really count on Ted Thompson doing anything. He values youth, but he also understands the economy of spending and getting maximum value per dollar spent. That's exactly why I asked the question, it's such a tough question. Obviously he's not afraid to jettison a veteran who has served us well (ie Favre, Harris, Green) in favor of a younger guy with more potential. Also, he seems to cut guys that he's drafted more slack than guys he inherited. I hate to say it, but I'm wondering if we've seen the last of Barnett in Green Bay.

Not a chance. Barnett has been playing very well and has a reasonable contract that runs through 2012.

Their ears must have been burning. Great news, hopefully he can contribute somehow.
