    Inbox: Whatever works

    Daniel from Potosi, WI I know it's not a big deal or important, but I remember when I was a kid waiting for the new Super Bowl logo to come out every season.

    Inbox: Never stop fighting

    Levi from St. Paul, MN The 2011 Packers were dominant offensively but their defense suffered after losing Nick Collins. He really was a field-tilter. If the Packers don't lose Collins, do you think they are even better and could have beaten a hot Giants team? Do you see any similarities...

    Inbox: He would be the next name on the list

    Steve from Ashland, WI Mike, you let the league off far too easily in the question about Washington's nickname. Yes, the owner doesn't want to change, but the league hasn't forced the issue. NFL is a private business that makes lots of rules teams, players, staff have to follow. They need to...

    Inbox: There's no question about it

    Craig from Appleton, WI Does the 70-year-age limit apply to all levels of the organization? If so we could have Aaron Rodgers for another 33 years and Wes for like 50 years. OK, I laughed. Good morning! Allen from Birmingham, AL Re: Gary's question about aiming at drone cameras is...

    Inbox: They connected with that

    Kyle from Bell Buckle, TN Ethan from La Crosse was right. We should only allow for pertinent questions. So who would win in a fight between Rodgers and a hurricane? … But the hurricane's name is Hurricane Rodgers. Other than random mentions of "Da Bears," this might be the first legitimate...

    Inbox: It's going to take some getting used to for everyone

    Dan from Toledo, OH Texas is already allowing fans to attend professional sports (even though there's not really sports to attend). If the NFL defers to states, could this lead to the most unbalanced home-field advantage in NFL history? Say every Cowboys home game they are allowed 50/75%...

    Doug from Storrs, CT Is the move to more focus on the running game real, or does it just seem like it? If it is real, is there a reason other than just a change in NFL fashion? Were there any rule changes that have led to it? Or someone noticing that running backs are cheaper than wide...
