Final Preseason game: 5 big reasons to watch
 

Published 27 hours ago by Andy Erdman at The Frozen Tundra

For the average Packers fan, tonight’s preseason finale against the Titans will be a snoozer. Many starters are being held out of action due to injury, and the starters who are playing won’t be in for long. And it doesn’t even count, right? But for more serious Packer Backers, this evening’s Lambeau Field contest is a must see because many big time decisions for the Packers will be ...

Three Reasons the Packers Will and Won’t Win the Superbowl
 

Published 48 hours ago by MJ Kasprzak at The Frozen Tundra

Aaron Rodgers will have to come out of Brett Favre’s shadow this season This has been a theme on MVN for other teams. The Packers are at the very least contenders in the NFC, and we here at the Frozen Tundra would be remiss if we did not join this discussion. Let us start with the positives: This team was the number two seed last year, and the only change in that roster was ...

My fantasy football draft is this Friday!
 

Published 3 days ago by Casey Burkett at The Frozen Tundra

This is the closest I get to a teenage girl screaming “Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!” or “OMG, OMG, OMG!” as I hear they do these days. Fantasy football leagues have either held their drafts or will be drafting sometime in the next week. This dungeons and dragons for jocks began 46 years ago according to a November 27th, 2004 article from the San Fransisco Times ...

Packers make cuts, Harrel to PUP list
 

Published 3 days ago by Casey Burkett at The Frozen Tundra

General Manager Ted Thompson needed to get the team to 75 players this week and made some not so surprising moves. According to Packers.com running backs DeShawn Wynn and Ryan Powdrell were released along with wide receiver Chris Francies . Wynn’s release hurt a little because he had shown such promise in small bursts. There were just too many running backs on this team for him to ...

One Mustache Goes a Long Way
 

Published 3 days ago by Sam Hall at The Frozen Tundra

I’ll tell you one thing I like about Aaron Rodgers: The man has no fear when it comes to hair. Whether it be a flowing lion’s mane, an unapologetic mullet, a short, straight forward ‘do, or the wild Fu-Manchu ‘stache he was rocking in Denver Friday night, ARodg has more hairstyles than Dennis Rodman used to. When I saw him sans helmet on Friday I smiled, and for a moment I didn’t miss ...

Rodgers’ performance in win promising
 

Published 4 days ago by Andy Erdman at The Frozen Tundra

After a dubious second preseason performance by Aaron Rodgers and a downright pathetic showing by Green Bay as a whole, both Rodgers and the team he now leads bounced back to pull out a 27-24 squeaker on the road in Denver. Rodgers was nearly perfect, and he certainly looked like he could play at a high level in the NFL. Consistency and durability, however, are areas in which he still must ...

Who’s up for a shorter preseason?
 

Published 10 days ago by Casey Burkett at The Frozen Tundra

Preseason blues got you down? Sick of watching games that don’t matter and could get key players injured? The regular season looks so far away, and with two preseason games yet to be played the regular season can’t come fast enough. It could be worse. These last Packer games could have counted! The NFL plays these glorified scrimmages for one apparent reason: money. They ...

All-Time Packers Offense, Special Teams
 

Published 10 days ago by MJ Kasprzak at The Frozen Tundra

The indisputed two best receivers in the history of the game Now it is time to examine who should represent the only non-profit professional franchise in the world on the offensive side of the ball, as well as special teams positions. As with the last edition (defense), there will be the standard starters and one back-up. I also put a premium on number of games played with the ...

All-Time Packers Defense
 

Published 11 days ago by MJ Kasprzak at The Frozen Tundra

For my all-time Packers lineup, I have selected players based on a few standard criteria. For one, I put special emphasis on the number of games they played for the organization. It matters less how great their career was with another team as it relates to this franchise, or how great they were for a couple years before injury or trade. I also put an emphasis on those players who ...

First Hand Account of Packers Debacle
 

Published 12 days ago by MJ Kasprzak at The Frozen Tundra

My wife’s cousin has Forty-Niners season tickets, and yesterday he confirmed what I had wondered: he had no interest in driving down from the North Bay for a pre-season game. Did I want the tickets? Heck, yeah! My wife came down with a fever, so I brought her best friend. The only cost for me was the $3 round-trip for the bus (I live about three miles from ...

Thank god this first half is finally over
 

Published 12 days ago by Casey Burkett at The Frozen Tundra

The first half of the Packers v 49ers game has very little positive to react to. Aaron Rodgers’ passes looked fairly crisp besides his forced pass into double coverage at the end of the half that should have been picked off. Packer receivers dropped balls, the offensive line couldn’t seem to contain the Niners D, Rodgers wouldn’t get rid of the ball, and the Packers ...

Packers-Forty Niners Q&A

Action in the game between the teams in which I proposed to my wife on the scoreboard, 12/15/02 I asked the following questions of Samuel Lam, a Forty-Niners beat writer on our sister-site here on MVN, “Mining the Gold Rush,” in preparation for the match-up between the two teams this Saturday. You can see the questions he asked of me and my answers in his next article on ...

Aaron Rodgers debuts as starter tonight on the big stage
 

Published 17 days ago by Andy Erdman at The Frozen Tundra

Although coming away with a victory in the Packers’ first preseason game of the year against Cincinnati would be satisfying, tonight is not about wins or losses. Tonight is about evaluating team and individual growth as well as gauging which of the new guys on the block could emerge to crack the final 53-man roster. Front and center will be the play of Aaron Rodgers , Green Bay’s ...

Bad Trade for Packers, Possibly Worse for Favre
 

Published 20 days ago by Sam Hall at The Frozen Tundra

For all the drama and emotion of the last month, and I admit, I have been very emotional (it’s hard to let go of a quarterback who has led your team since you were 12 years old), it may be time to cast a discerning eye on the biggest trade of the summer. The New York Jets finished 4-12 in 2007, the Green Bay Packers 13-3. If you happened to be a first-ballot Hall of Fame quarterback in the ...

Favre has More Class than Many of his Supporters
 

Published 21 days ago by MJ Kasprzak at The Frozen Tundra

I heard the press conference on my way into work tonight. Brett Favre was asked about not initially wanting to be a Jet, and said he never had felt that way. “My first choice,” he started, and I thought, oh, man, he’s gonna say “was always to remain a Packer.” I have never believed that. too much leaked out last year and this about him maybe wanting to play ...

Brett Favre Traded to New York Jets
 

Published 22 days ago by MJ Kasprzak at The Frozen Tundra

God did this just to put me in my place. I was so sure Favre would end up in Tampa and so ready to remind everyone I had predicted it a month ago. Favre was traded to the Jets? Are you kidding me? They are irrelevant, no matter what the writers on that MVN blog are saying. No details have been shared about the compensation for green Bay beyond a “conditional 2009 draft pick.” ...

Comic relief: The Bears still suck!
 

Published 22 days ago by Andy Erdman at The Frozen Tundra

Since June 20th – the day Brett Favre made his plans to unretire clear to coach Mike McCarthy – I’ve been a total wreck. It’s been well more than one month of constant drama. Is Brett coming back? Will he be traded? Will there be a quarterback competition? What is Ted Thompson thinking? What is Favre thinking? In the past month all I’ve heard is negative news. Every day I find ...

Favre fans Vs Packer fans. What, are we schizophrenic here?
 

Published 23 days ago by Casey Burkett at The Frozen Tundra

How would you feel seeing Brett Favre don a Tampa jersey opening day? I’ll tell you what I would feel. Worse than a marshmallow in a firestorm. Does this mean I’m not a Packer fan? Brett has had an incredible career here in Green Bay. Where fans are the most loyal in the land, and a southern boy was taken in as one of their own. Over the past few years the relationship ...
