GREEN BAY – With Aaron Rodgers winning the 2020 NFL MVP, the Packers as a franchise have now won nine MVPs since the advent of the Associated Press award in 1957. But which of the nine was the best season? Who's the MVP of the MVPs? Packers.com has been letting the fans choose via a weekly...

'Project Play 60 Express', the Green Bay Packers' event focused on getting families out of the house to enjoy non-strenuous physical activity, is set for Saturday, March 13, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The free community event has been adjusted to be safe and socially distanced and will be held in...

Bryan from Madison, WI It has been a running joke in Packerland (I know I am guilty) to laugh at the QB carousel in Chicago. However, since the Bears haven't had to routinely allocate large portions of their cap to QB, it would seem they have been able to amass (and retain) quite a lot of...

So, while some valuable and convenient elements of the combine can't effectively be replicated – such as all the physical testing being done on the same days at the same location, and all the NFL team doctors conducting medical checks themselves in a hands-on, efficient manner – the adjusted...

Terry from Rothschild, WI Spoff, you may have heard that legendary D.C. Everest football coach Wayne Steffenhagen recently passed away. Would you have a Coach Steff memory or story you could share from your days in Central Wisconsin? What an icon. I only covered Valley football for 3½...

On the first Saturday of every month, Mark will write about a topic of interest to Packers fans and the organization, and then answer five fan questions. Fans are encouraged to email Mark with their name and hometown at: MurphyTakes5@packers.com. I'm often asked by people what I do in the...

Mark from Minneapolis, MN Mike, relatively new news, but it sounds like "roughing the QB" is getting a review as a reviewable penalty? Do you think this potential review is an isolated scenario based on the importance of the QB position, or could it be a stepping stone to eventual reviews of...

GREEN BAY – Maurice Drayton feels at home on special teams. It's not that the Packers' new special teams coordinator hasn't coached other areas. In spending nine of his 14 years in the college ranks at his alma mater, The Citadel, Drayton coached at least a half dozen different positions and...

Duane from Oak Creek, WI I miss the combine. Is everyone else going through combine withdrawal? I almost hit the road last week just to find a Steak-n-Shake. Markus from Aurora, CO Wes and Mike, as we have moved into March, what is worthwhile to keep in sight? The next significant date...

I loved Mike's nugget on how the Bears have enacted a self-fulfilling prophecy of doom by having 14 retired jersey numbers and banning the retirement of more in the future! I think our six retired jerseys are appropriate with Aaron Rodgers soon-to-be seven. I thought the Packers would retire...

A devout fan of the show, Rodgers considered longtime host Alex Trebek "one of my idols growing up" and voiced his admiration for Trebek following his passing last November at 80 years old after a two-year battle with pancreatic cancer. When asked to fill in as a guest host, Rodgers jumped at...

Timothy from Wauwatosa, WI Why don't NFL GMs trade back/out of first and second round and try to get as many third- through sixth-round picks as possible and essentially get two of nearly every position? (if Packers had seven picks plus three compensatory, they could use the round 1-2 picks to...

GREEN BAY – Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst covered a number of pertinent topics in multiple media sessions Tuesday. Via Zoom, he addressed the full Green Bay media corps for a little over 15 minutes, and then he spoke separately with the team's beat writers for nearly half an hour...

The Lambeau Field parking lot will serve as a collection site from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, March 6, for the "Help for the Homeless Hygiene Drive" and community members are asked to donate items during the drive-up event for those in need. The items will be collected by the Brown County...

GREEN BAY – In the first of his two decades as an NFL assistant coach, Joe Barry sat everywhere from the penthouse to the outhouse. During just his third season in the NFL, he won a Super Bowl with Tampa Bay. Then six years later, he lost every game one season in Detroit. Since then, the...

Clipton from Pasadena, CA Do you know why the NFL gave up on the combine this year? It's a revenue generator and I would think it would be far easier to manage the COVID risk there with no fans as opposed to the Super Bowl. Plus, having innumerable pro days would seem to create more of a COVID...

Dan from Tampa, FL I know left tackle is more important than right tackle because of the blind side but I'm starting to wonder. Edge rushers are pretty much interchangeable and the better ones can go against either side. Also, it seems since most QBs are right-handed they are more vulnerable...

The Green Bay Packers Pro Shop is seeking part-time, seasonal employees to join the team, and the Pro Shop will host a job fair on Tuesday, March 9, at the Johnsonville Tailgate Village from 2 to 7 p.m. The store is looking for team members to start between May and September of this year to...

"Small, locally owned businesses are the heart and soul of a community," said Rodgers. "In the applications and the videos, it was heart-wrenching to hear about all the obstacles facing restaurants and retail establishments. So many of them are struggling just to stay in business but remain...
