ok, so there is no such thing as a front office that makes no mistakes....
LOL. I thought they were better than that!

Hey, despite the fact the guy has a legal wrap sheet on him, he is productive when he plays. He just added a dimension to the offense they've been missing now for the past several years. Luckily, we do well against the run, but now that I think about it, if you try to apply too much pressure on Rodgers, he'll just start handing the ball off to Benson, and if you stack the line to stop Benson, then you open yourself up to playaction passes and Rodgers carving up your defense again.
Hahaha jokes on them! He is incapable of being mature for a whole season.
He still is going to make their O that much better. And remember when he was in Cinci he torched us. Now he's got AR and all those WR's that you have to worry about instead of him. He won't get 25-30 touches a game, but he'll still give you decent yardage.
The guy has head problems, but he is a serious weapon for Green Bay. If he had to come to our division, I wish it wasn't to GB. They just got better as a team with this move.

Thanks For The Memories
Not THAT much better, but if Urlacher's gonna have continued problems, the run game's gonna be UGLY
Ced is an improvement... starting level for GB. That sucks.
Wishing for ill fortune in bars or behind them is about all I can add.
Since when did he get signed to play with the Packers?
Cedric Benson aims for another 1,000-yard season

Getty Images Cedric Benson has run for 1,000 yards in each of the last three seasons, all with the Bengals. Now that he’s with the Packers, Benson doesn’t expect his production to change.
“I definitely have a goal to still rush for 1,000 and things like that, 1,000-plus, and set up some big numbers,” Benson said today. “I understand it’s not a run-first team and the run is not real heavy here, but there’s times where a back gets the ball 25 times. And I’m sure if things are rolling, the run game is set to a standard that we’re hoping to achieve, it could be way more carries than that.”
Last season James Starks led the Packers in rushing, with 578 yards on 133 carries. So Benson is right when he suggests that the Packers’ offense may not lend itself to a 1,000-yard rusher. But Benson says he’s in good shape and capable of being a workhorse back in Green Bay.
“I feel great,” Benson said. “I do a good job of putting a lot of effort and taking care of myself off the field, and I think it contributes on the field. It’s just kind of what you do. You grow older, playing the running back position, you understand the longevity of this position — of any position in the NFL — so you’ve got to do all you can to stay healthy.”
If Benson is as good in Green Bay as he was the last three years in Cincinnati, the Packers will have good reason to run the ball more often this season.
Keep telling yourself that, Cedric the Entertainer. We'll believe you when you can go a full season without getting arrested for a DUI or disorderly conduct.Originally Posted by bearsinhouston
