Message: <blockquote data-quote="Greg C." data-source="post: 19792" data-attributes="member: 195">You said a lot, Cheez, and as usual I agree with almost all of it.  Good point about Kenny Peterson.  He played well, but it was against backups. You may be right about Chris Johnson earning his walking papers, but I hope they find a way to keep him.  Is it possible that they could keep five CB's?  Johnson did get beaten deep by Drew Bennett once, but on the TD play his coverage was perfect.  Bennett ran a great route and Volek could've hit a postage stamp with that throw.  Considering that Johnson missed his entire first two seasons, I'm willing to overlook some mistakes.  Jason Horton will be gone almost for sure, and I have to wonder what he was doing here in the first place.  He's small and he's constantly getting beaten in coverage.  He didn't play as much last night, which does not bode well for him. I didn't see much of Manning or Thompson in this game, but once again Paris Lenon looked very good in coverage.  When Diggs comes back, Lenon should be our strong side linebacker.  Nick Collins continues to impress, and I like Little better than Roman.  He seems to have more of a nose for the ball.  Roman already has the job, but if he gets injured there will be no dropoff in quality when Little comes in.  I agree about Thomas vs. Carroll.  Thomas is better.  Grady Jackson and Cletidus Hunt looked rusty.  Correction:  Grady Jackson looked rusty.  Cletidus Hunt just plain sucks.  He always has and probably always will.  Mike Flanagan has had a very bad preseason.  He looks stiff and awkward out there.  I hope he gets better as the season goes on.  It could be that this is one of those injuries that takes two years for a player to recover from.  Considering Flanagan's history of serious injuries early in his career, he may have a hard time ever getting back to full speed.  I'm worried about him.  I thought it was funny how the announcer, Kevin Harlan, went on and on about Brett Favre's injury, like it was a big concern.  Hey Kevin, we've watched this guy play every single game for 12 years now, we're not going to worry too much about him tweaking his ankle in a preseason game.  Overall, Cheez, your 10-6 prediction may be a little generous.  The Packers have a distinct 8-8 look about them right now.  The offensive and defensive lines are both areas of concern, and that's where it all starts.  Hopefully those units will come together eventually (right now, they're not even close) and the Pack will win the North again.</blockquote>
