I am betting that 3-6 from 11-12:15 or so may have been one of the least productive (at work) time periods in recent WI history. Everyone was watching Favre’s press conference. Probably higher WI ratings than the super bowl and certainly the presidential primaries. Flags should now be at 1/4 mast-half mast being reserved for the death of presidents and such. Favre is more important. The most telling graphic of the Favre retirement events–North division QBs since Favre began: Detroit, Minn, Chicago-something like 55 different QBs started for them v. GB–1. Am to the Pabst stage of grieving now.

I only meant 2 linebackers by title, but that Rouse would function in the scheme similar to how Poppinga functions (or doesn’t function as the case is). Your argument would be stronger if Poppinga weren’t so bad. I’m operating from the factual position that because Poppinga doesn’t do much, it would be very difficult for someone else to come in there and do worse. Rouse is actually not much smaller than Poppinga (just a few pounds lighter – Rouse is taller), so I wouldn’t think he’d be any more of a liability covering the run than Poppinga. Rouse has also demonstrated through the season that he is a better hitter and a more aggressive tackler than Poppinga. Poppinga had one really good tackle last week, but outside of that, he’s been largely absent back there all year. Rouse would also bring a new dimension to the defense, pass coverage, something that is a real problem for Poppinga. And most importantly, Rouse appears to be a playmaker, something we can definitely say does not characterize Poppinga.

A 4-2 would never work. Rouse may be a good safety, but with only two linebackers, every team in the league would run oer us. If Bob Sanders read that, he would be chuckling for days
