The lost game. Not many will discuss anything except injuries. Attention will immediately turn to the roster cuts due this weekend.

Will Boyle play?
I hope a RB besides Baugnon plays. This guy gets more reps than he has shown to be worth.
Will Trevor play well enough for a roster spot?
Rookie WR time to stake their claim to a spot. What about Jake?
Last few spots are up for grabs. Probably 15 guys chasing 8-9 slots at the back end of the depth chart.
Camp bodies get their lifetime memories of the one shot at the brass ring of an NFL career.

I pray Mays get some significant snaps and fights for his life. I've noticed he's especially shifty and dangerous around the sidelines and has good burst once he breaks that first tackle. He has a Mike Tyson punch when his game is on

Holy moly, Boyle throws nothing but bombs. I think he’s incapable of throwing the ball less than 25 yards

I think we oughta keep tonyan on the 53 and perhaps say goodbye to Kendricks. I like Kendricks but Tonyan is very intriguing, younger, more upside, cheaper, and seems more dynamic

Tonyan is going to be very hard to cut. I wouldn't. I don't see the practices, but I have to imagine he works hard. Whenever I hear him talk he sounds like he has the mentality and right attitude to be successful. And he has to be one of the most aggressive catchers I've seen out there for GB

Yeah. Tonyan tends to make those contested catches look easy, partly because he looks strong for his size and he ain’t little.
He’s been consistent and I also think we should make him our #3. With Mercedes and Graham, the 3rd TE is mostly delegated to ST anyway.

We would also be saving money if we cut Kendricks.

Packers should've drafted RB Philip Lindsay. Can't believe the kid went undrafted. Can contribute on special teams and special with the ball in his hand.

I also heard Hunter Bradley has been inconsistent with snapping the ball (seems like a wasted 7th round).. Triner seems to be taking the job or they could call on Goode.

Maybe after that Boyle performance he won't make it to the roster? Sure wouldnt mind personally.

He will. He just had a Q4 meltdown and takeway will be to go back to basic mechanics. OK either way, if we have to depend on him, we're fecked by that time anyway.

How much of it was him getting rocked back there? He played and looked a lot better in the second quarter. Our Third unit Oline, the guys fighting for a roster spot, has been a train wreck this preseason.

That doesnt excuse bad decisions and mis-reads. Keep in mind he was up against 3rd and 4th string DBs.

He has not earned a spot on the 53. I don't think he's any more than a PS player

The Packers would have to use Tonyan as a receiving tight end if he ends up making the roster. Otherwise there's no reason to keep him on the 53.

The main thing I don't like about the away preseason games on the NFL Network isn't listening to the other teams broadcasters. It's all the shots of the opposing team's bench, announcing booth, and interviews - sometimes even while there are plays going on. I saw enough red watching this as I care to see for awhile.

One thing I did like was the shot of Andy Reid's restored old green and yellow classic car that they showed him driving, which they said he had done after Super Bowl XXXI when he was with the Packers. I always thought Reid was copying Mike Holmgren's "walrus" look. Cool car, though.
