    Inbox: That's the beauty of modern football

    Inbox: The Packers' window is far from closed

    John from Green Bay, WI I loved Thursday's question regarding which three Packer injuries you would undo. Mine would be: Robert Brooks, Craig Newsome, and Brian Williams.

    Mark from West Bend, WI Wes, with it looking like WR is going to be a focus this offseason, do you think the Packers will try to fill the open WR coaching position prior to the combine in order for that person to be involved in potential prospect interviews and field activities? The Packers...

    Inbox: That's what scouts are asked to find

    Ryan from Sheboygan Falls, WI Will the Packers have a better team this coming year? With the way Gutekunst manages the roster and with LaFleur heading into his second year, I firmly believe so. It doesn't mean they'll win more games or advance farther in the playoffs, because health, bounces...

    Mike's Mid-Week Chat: Which position groups might change the most?

    Any word on a new receivers coach? Not yet. I don't want to speak for LaFleur, but I would think he'll want to have one in place before the scouting combine, which is two weeks away. Hi Mike, I've heard draft class is deep at WR but what are GB's chance of drafting a stud MLB? If there are...

    Inbox: Everyone has a role to play

    Malcolm from Fennimore, WI In response to Clifford from Brockport, I believe the reason most of us fans remember the bad punts is because they are easier to spot and make us more emotional than the good punts. Fans don't truly praise the good things a punter does. All the credit goes to the...

    Davon House wouldn't trade his time with Packers for anything

    Now a full-fledged starter and the oldest cornerback in the room, House felt a responsibility to uphold the standard Woodson and Williams had set.

    Inbox: There's never just one reason

    Justin from Los Angeles, CA All these questions about when to give up on a guy, I'm curious: Who's the latest bloomer you've seen in your time on the beat, and how long did it take him to find his groove? And what do you think took him so long? A couple of guys that come to mind are Kyler...

    Inbox: It's a role he can hold down for a long time

    Bill from Menominee, MI I know this isn't going to be a popular opinion but hear me out. With the current contracts in place, the Packers are as close to all-in as they've flirted with in many years. The talent is in place to make a run. Does it make sense to add a second- to third-tier...
