I was just trying to say that teams will look past quibbles about stats and situational issues when hiring a HC. They're looking for more than that, the same way that GB looked past ML's record as a play caller in TN when they hired him, they obviously saw something there. I don't know what Hafley wants, I don't know what his ambitions are but no one will look at this stretch of September/October games to determine if he's the right HC for them.

Haf was NEVER going to do that anyway...he left a great HC gig to come to GB. He doesn't want those hassles.

But you don't think if Hafley was offered a NFL gig he would take it? Dealing with the NIL BS is different then the NFL is it not?
 
Packers could have several players in the next week or few that are ready to return off IR.

Watson
Cox
Lloyd
Monk

There is one open roster spot right now and if McManus can come back after this week it would open another as the other kicker would be cut. I am thinking GB would not keep 4 RB so Brooks or Wilson would be cut. Also I think you could probably cut Jennings and replace him with Monk if he would be ready.
 
A lot of people are talking about how we should keep Havrisik over McManus or keep both on the roster. McManus is 34 years old. Havrisik is 26 years old.

I can't see keeping both on the roster as GB has several players able to come off IR and PUP and can't really afford to carry two kickers.

If the Packers were to cut or trade McManus it would bring a extra $1.6 million in dead cap to the Packers salary cap.

So what is everybody's thought's? Do you keep both or trade one? Do you believe in Havrisik after only two games? It does seem many are jumping on the Havrisik bandwagon after the 61 yarder. Also lets face it the kicking ball seems juiced this year with many players hitting 60+ yard kicks.

For me I am sticking with McManus. He has shown GB a bigger sample size with kicking GB for last year also. Before this Havrisik was out of the league for a couple years so I can't be sold on him yet not kicking for just two games.
 
AZ is now 2-5, I would offer them something for Calais Campbell and get it done. Guy can still play this year and he's a great locker room presence.
