    Packers thrilled to keep kicker Mason Crosby

    He also ranks 23rd on the NFL's all-time scoring list, and if he maintains his roughly 120-point career average over the next three years, he'll have a chance to crack the top 10, depending on how long fellow veteran kickers Stephen Gostkowski (1,775, 12th), Matt Bryant (1,758, 13th) and Robbie...

    Jim from Edgerton, WI With the chatter regarding Green Bay as a potential site to host the 2022 NFL Draft, I have a couple of questions: Where would it be held, and how hard would it be to get a ticket? I imagine it would be held in the Resch Center or the new expo hall being built adjacent...

    Inbox: They're only a couple wins away

    Bill from Menominee, MI I thought the playoffs were perfect and didn't require altering. Then after thinking about it, why not? Viewers keep watching, so why not give them another game?

    5 things learned from Packers GM Brian Gutekunst before the combine

    3. One decision sounds somewhat made, though: He plans on bringing Mason Crosby back. The veteran kicker is a pending free agent and is coming off maybe his best season, tying the franchise record for field-goal accuracy (22-of-24, .917), missing just one extra point, and setting a personal...

    Chris from West Allis, WI "Our stories are written in pen, not pencil, and what we choose to put on that page defines us." Wow. What a mic drop (or pen drop). Do you guys brainstorm the perfect line like this for a good 20 minutes, or does it just come to you in a magical moment of clarity...

    Russ from Henrico, VA If the Packers draft/sign/develop a receiver who can truly take the top off, how much more effective do the current receivers get? Backs out the backfield, special attention to Davante Adams and a genuine deep threat would likely open up lots of space for Allen Lazard...
