[...] Flashback: PG and Readers React to Jon Ryan’s Dismissal By sfhayes As I’ve mentioned before, one of the cool features we get through WordPress is a glimpse at the search terms that have brought readers to our site. (This Internet thing is cool. I think it’s really going to take off.) Yesterday, several readers searched “Packergeeks and Jon Ryan,” presumably trying to see what we wrote in real-time about the switch from Ryan to Derrick Frost. So I went back and looked at it and the many reader — and fellow blogger — comments about the move. Pretty interesting. You can see it here. [...]

This is going to be good. Although, It would be great if Frost succeeds.
It would be priceless if he stinks up the joint in the next few hours and the entire media comes down on White haired guy. T-minus 7 hours. Houston we have a problem. I hope he has a whole bunch of confidence, he will need it.

I have to agree with Aaron Rodgers that Jon Ryan had a sick fake punt. Like last week when he broke off a 34 yard run. Jump to number 2 of this one from last year. Crazy Stuff. http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d80a6e401

If you cut White then Hodge has to be the primary backup at WLB. Can he play WLB as well as White? I guess not…

What people are missing on the Hodge thing is a) He only knew the Mike and b) he didn’t play teams. White knows more than one spot and is a special teams beast. Why on Earth would you keep 3 middle linebackers?

Mac G, if TT needed to get rid of a linebacker, it should of been White. Hodge has been very good in the preseason. I haven’t seen much from White though… No one will every understand Ted. Especially the way he uses his draft picks.

Living in DC subjects me to non stop Skins coverage and they were talking about the punter battle the other day on sports radio. Frost shanked several in big spots last year and the Skins then drafted a punter. Frost had actually punted better in camp but the Skins went with the draft pick instead.

How did Abdul Hodge not make this team? Everything I read on the Packers blogs in preseason commented about how Hodge was impressive. He seemed to be finally healthy again and playing at a high level but he gets cut.

Steve,

Ooopps, My only excuse is I’m old. Still most worried about the long snapper being someone else’s reject and a new holder for the Viking Game. That could easily be resolved by a FG. If Frost can get the hang time to minimize returns, he’ll be worth it. Let’s face it, if it weren’t for Crosby’s touchbacks the coverage team in pre-season was definetely below average.

Aaron,

I agree on the O-Line only if Wells is really ok. It has been described as not having pain but a lack of strength. Not good for a center who needs to open holes and protect his QB. I won’t believe the O-Line is opk until he plays a full game. I see Muir was picked up by the Colts.

Ron -

O line is fine, but agree on D-line. The problem is that it is the first Week of September. Any moves that could be made have been made. To quote Gene Hackman in Hoosiers: “This is your team.”
