Quay Walker might be the victim of bad timing in Green Bay

Timing is important for linebackers. You have to know when to make your move, line up that gap, and deliver a hit just at the right moment. It’s a huge part of the position. Timing, unfortunately, appears to be working against Quay Walker — at least as far as his chances of staying in Green […]

2026 NFL Draft: Finding Packers cornerback targets on day 2

Green Bay Packers fans are entering the offseason with some anxiety about the cornerback position. Fortunately, the 2026 NFL Draft class is loaded with talent at the position, particularly on Day 2. That doesn’t mean that the Packers will necessarily take a cornerback early in this year’s draft. Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine are both […]

New York Jets Flight Connections 02/20/26

Good morning Gang Green Nation! The quarterback position will be a tough nut to crack this offseason for the New York Jets. A suggestion is made in one of the featured articles below that the Jets should trade a mid round pick for Eagles backup quarterback Tanner McKee. Another possibility is Packers backup Malik Willis, […]

The Packers should get ahead of Alec Pierce’s new contract

Timing is everything in the NFL market right now. The league is regularly seeing $25 million per year per team salary cap increases (roughly $800 million in cap increases league-wide). Clubs are also spending an average of 10 percent over the salary cap in cash spending for players, which is only compounding on top of […]

Packers Discussion: Did Rich Bisaccia step away on his own volition?

This has been floating around the Green Bay Packers-sphere since the announcement that Rich Bisaccia stepped down from his gig as the Packers’ special teams coordinator. There’s one camp that believes that Bisaccia actually left his post voluntarily, and there’s another that thinks he was forced out by head coach Matt LaFleur. Personally, I think […]

Names emerge in Packers’ special teams coordinator search

Bill Huber of Sports Illustrated has two names to share with you regarding the Green Bay Packers’ special teams coordinator search. First, he reported that Cameron Achord “is among the candidates to replace Rich Bisaccia.” A couple of hours later, Huber also reported that Kyle Wilber will be interviewed for the job, too. Let’s take […]

Chicago Bears 2026 Roster Turnover: The Specialists

The Chicago Bears’ special teams had some big moments in 2026, with Josh Blackwell winning NFC Player of the Week after his block in Las Vegas, and Cairo Santos winning it following his three field goals and onside kick performance against the Packers. And who can forget Jake Moody walking off the Commanders or Devin Duvernay’s last-minute […]

There aren’t many kicking coaches in the NFL

Shoutout to LLCHESTY, who asked an interesting question in the comment section of a previous article covering some potential special teams coordinator candidates to replace Rich Bisaccia, now that he’s left his post with the Green Bay Packers: Hey Justis, do you know if any teams use a kicking coach? With the expansion of coaching […]

Wednesday Cheese Curds: Welcome to the post-Bisaccia era

Those who wanted Rich Bisaccia fired got what they wanted. Sort of. I guess. By hook or by crook, Bisaccia is out in Green Bay. He’s done. The man hired to fix the Packers’ special teams but didn’t will now go off to do whatever former special teams coaches do in retirement. Is that a […]

A statistical look at the Packers’ special teams coordinator options

Rich Bisaccia is out of a job with the Green Bay Packers. Today, I want to construct a statistical analysis of the Packers’ remaining options to replace Bisaccia. Bisaccia stepped away from his post in Green Bay after the other 11 vacancies league-wide were already filled. Among those 11 “new” hires, 8 of them held […]

Names to keep an eye on as Rich Bisaccia’s replacement for the Packers

Green Bay Packers special teams coordinator and assistant head coach Rich Bisaccia just stepped down from his position with the team. Based on the timing of this happening on February 17th, after several teams with new head coaches have already announced their full staffs for the 2026 season, I’m going to guess that the Packers […]

First reported by Tom Pelissero of NFL Network and shortly thereafter confirmed by the Packers’ official social media account, Rich Bisaccia is stepping down from his post as the Packers’ special teams coordinator.

One of these players, cornerback Greg Newsome II, was given the Green Bay Packers as his best fit, according to Bowen. Here’s what he had […]

Tuesday Cheese Curds: The NFL is gearing up for free agency

Free agency is bearing down on us. A wave of veteran releases began to break yesterday, the franchise tag window opens today, and teams are gearing up for the annual big spend. The Packers, of course, can’t spend richly this spring, but if they make a few of the expected moves to get their cap […]

ESPN projects a trade for Kenny Clark in 2026

The Green Bay Packers traded away their projected starting nose tackle, Kenny Clar,k in the Micah Parsons trade last August. Clark was expected to be a one-year stopgap for the Dallas Cowboys, simply because of the way his contract was laid out. As it stands right now, he is due $21.5 million in cash in […]

Green Bay Packers News: At least tackling wasn’t a problem in 2025

The Green Bay Packers had their share of issues during the 2025 season, but one thing stood out as an encouraging part of their performance throughout last season. Although there were a few issues by individual players, the Packers’ defense, on the whole, tackled very well all year. That was the case even through injuries, […]

NFL Draft: Previewing the 2026 cornerback class

The Green Bay Packers are almost certainly going to take a cornerback in the 2026 draft, if not to replace Keisean Nixon, Carrington Valentine or Nate Hobbs in 2026, then to replace the expiring contracts of Nixon, Valentine, Bo Melton and Kamal Hadden in 2027. Nixon, Valentine and Hadden are going into the final year […]
