We’re Ready for More Mike Pennel

Mike Pennel

Mike Pennel — Kelly Hayes’ boy Mike Pennel — got the most extensive playing time of his Green Bay Packers career against the Chicago Bears last Sunday.

He didn’t exactly set the world on fire, as he was at least somewhat to blame for the fact that the Bears ran for a disgustingly hearty 254 yards. Nonetheless, the coaching staff appears to be on the verge of favoring Pennel over their other “nose tackle” Letroy Guion.

By the Journal Sentinel’s count, Pennel played 22 snaps to Guion’s 28 on Sunday. That’s a substantial shift towards a guy who’s only been active for one NFL game prior to week 4.

So the situation seems pretty clear. The Packers don’t love what Guion (6-4, 315), who is considerably smaller than Pennel (6-4, 332), brings to the table as a run stuffing nose tackle and they’re ready to give someone else a shot.

Now, it shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that Guion isn’t all that great. This is a guy who got cut by the Minnesota Vikings in the offseason, after all. Great idea to anchor your run defense with some Vikings’ trash, Ted.

Guion has a whopping three tackles on the season. Pennel had two last week.

And you know these fat boys aren’t hustling downfield to tackle anyone. Their stops come at the line, so tackling stats are very indicative of whether someone is doing their job in this case (unlike with A.J. Hawk, who can jump on a pile after the whistle and get an assist).

We certainly don’t expect Pennel to come in and solve all of the Packers defensive issues. However, we’re pretty sure we’ve seen enough of Letroy Guion already.

    I think AJ Hawk needs to have his helmet bolted to his head. I swear that thing comes off every other play.

    Trade for Vince Wilfork. The Pats aren’t going anywhere this year, anyway.

    I was pleased with AJ hawk last game but yes he needs a new chinstrap or something. Eddie lacy is going to have a short career if he keeps taking those vicious hits. Everyone tees off against him

    Any party pontoon boats we can ship Guion off on? He skipped camp and the Packers handed him a starting joy. Hey I skipped the Packers camp too! maybe TT will give me a starting job.

    I want jolly back damnit. We got vacant space on our 53 roster. He would be our best lineman right away. Boyd is hurt and just a guy. Guion is a pansy. Jolly is a beast and quick twitch large man

    The key to acquisitions in Free Agency is to go after star players from bad teams and situations. Or, as the Lions did, take a shot at all high draft picks on your lines.
    You don’t take someone’s trash no more than you overpay for an avg athlete who shined every now and again on a playoff or super bowl winning squad. Again, great players (still in their prime) from bad teams and the odds of success go way up. Simple.

      Like with Jarius Byrd… oh, wait, the Saints are horseshit in the secondary. Worse than they were last season before they spent the big money on Byrd. I guess that didn’t work out so well.
