Too bad Bridgewater won't play.

But hey, we get shitty Christian Ponder.

His one career highlight is how he lit us up last year.

I don't believe that to be true.

We just couldn't. Because of, uh, trust issues.

Yeah that's it.

We have been through this.

I think Jordy Nelson is a throwback to the awesome white WRs of the 1950s.

I guess last week was just weird.

Road teams on Thursday night games have zero chance.

Yup... and it's a trend that I don't see changing any time soon. Which means the NFL is going to have a big problem soon. Nobody will be watching Thursday night games.

Thursday night games are stupid, why not friday? Fuck HS ball. I've seen maybe 10 HS football games my whole life and it would only be 1 if it weren't for my years as a school teacher.

We've been having a discussion in the office over the past couple of weeks about Jordy Nelson. Mainly on if he is a #1 receiver. I don't think he is, I think he is good just not a true #1. Am I wrong? because its getting pretty heated in here.

I don't think he is what you have in mind as a #1 wr but its hard to argue the numbers and success.

I agree...he is not a real #1, but he is damn good. I never think of him in the CJ, Jones, Green, Dez, Thomas class.

Nelson is kind of the white Miles Austin...had some success, but not truly elite...battled some injuries.

He's good but not a real #1, alot of his success is the system and because Aaron Rodgers. People used to say Greg Jennings was a #1 too

Let me ask this, if you were starting a team today, would you take Jordy Nelson over Kelvin Benjamin? I said no.

It really is the worst. The only Thursday games I watch are the Thanksgiving Day games unless Dallas is playing.

The sport has to look out for itself or it cuts itself off at the stem. Today's HS players and coaches are tomorrow's NFL players and coaches.
