Anyone else concerned about the LB situation or lack of them??? I've never been high on Lattimore but can't bring in all rookies to that position, can you??? I haven't checked the depth chart, forget who was on IR, or what rookies or 1 year players who could be stepping up this year maybe it isn't as much of a need as I think.

Yes, I'm concerned, but I also expect good things this year from Joe Thomas, the undrafted FA out of South Carolina State last year. He was on the practice squad last year, but I expect to see him shine in the preseason.

First schedule leak, Bears play at Lambeau on Thanksgiving night! OK, is that the game they retire Favre's No. 4??? Not that NFL Network is always right but they just announced the number retirement.

Mark Murphy supposedly put in a special request because they wanted a certain game, national TV, his success against the Bears makes sense to me.

Twitter world burning up with this one, players starting to comment. It has been awhile since Packers had a home game on Thanksgiving, usually they are on the road.

Regarding Bret Favre... that's what I heard just today. Report: Packers to host Bears, retire Brett Favre's jersey on Thanksgiving - CBSSports.com

Thanksgiving night.
Favre will love all the attention. I bet he's giddy right now.

It is time! Regardless of how some people might react, get 'er done already! Prime time, national TV, a Bears game, is the way to go. Murphy has been talking about wanting it to be the Bears for awhile now. He is on several committees so I think he has some pull with the league.

Ten years since Packers drafted Aaron Rodgers and their situation wouldn't be so great if they didn't do it.

ESPN has an article, but an interesting tidbit from it:

In all, there have been 123 quarterbacks drafted since Rodgers was picked, and only four of them -- Andrew Luck, Russell Wilson, Andy Dalton and Matt Ryan -- have been selected to multiple Pro Bowls. None has won the MVP.

Interesting draft like always from the Packers staff/Thompson. I see a lot of versatility with these picks, especially the first 3. Could be some creative play calling in the future.

Round 1, Pick 30: Damarius Randall DB
Round 2, Pick 62: Quinten Rollins CB
Round 3, Pick 94: Ty Montgomery WR
Round 4, Pick 129: Jake Ryan LB
Round 5, Pick 147: Brett Hundley QB
Round 6, Pick 206 Aaron Ripkowski FB
Round 6, Pick 210 Christian Ringo DL
Round 6, Pick 213 Kennard Backman TE

Why would they put the Bears-Packers on Thanksgiving?

Didn't the Packers put up over 50 in their two games vs them last year?
