Eddie Lacy said he's not losing weight unless the the guys on the third floor tell him to.

Don't see how it's false at all. The numbers back up my claim. What do you have? Blind homerism and excuses. You admitted in your post that he's a little overweight. So we can leave it at that. It's whatever.
He had more overall yards, touchdowns and higher yards per carry and receptions in year two so how did he regress?

No point in continuing this. We both believe what we believe. I believe Lacy can be a very good back if he can get back in shape, and I mostly enjoy watching the Packers, so it's all good. :suds:

He doesn't look too bad at all.

The facilities are actually quite nice.

There are 2 outdoor fields and the indoor facility as well


Ray Nitschke Field - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Don Hutson Center - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Don Hutson Center is the largest element of the Packers' practice complex, which includes Ray Nitschke Field and Clarke Hinkle Field, which were also named after Packer greats.

There are two practice fields inside the Center, a 70-yard (64 m) field runs east-west, with another 60-yard (55 m) field running north-south, allowing the offense and defense to practice simultaneously. With 90-foot (27 m) and 85-foot (26 m) high ceilings over the respective fields, the facility allows the special teams to run full punting and kicking practices. The FieldTurf surfaces allow the Packers to replicate game conditions for road games where they will have to play indoors or on artificial surfaces.

Both fields on each side of the Indoor facility. Nitschke Field on the bottom left is where most of the outdoor practices take place. Hinkle Field on the top right is not marked with the yard lines in this photo but they practice there as well.

I know it is not as grand as the new $Billion practice facility that just opened a week ago for the Cowboys starting this year but it is better than where the Boys use to practice. The wind does not blow over the Packers facility

Ah no most junior highs in WI dont have a square city block with 2 outdoor fields and an indoor facility to use.

Maybe in TX they do but not up this way.

And yes Dez dropped the ball :suds:

The hell kind of junior high did you go to?

I went to a 6a highschool. We had an extra practice field(2 of them technically).

It didn't help, we still only won 1 game a year pretty much always.

According to NFL.com, Lacy is 5'11" and 234 lbs. Lynch is 5'11" and 215 lbs. Not exactly a good comparison.

That's not fat at all for a power back, lighter than Jamaal Lewis, Corey Dillion, the Bus and Earl the pearl Campbell....If they want a little back, just say so, but get off the guys back and let him play his game.....When those kind of backs get to the second tier, they are really hard to stop, that's the Oline and OC's job to design plays that get him there....I still think McCarthy needs to get a good OC and sit his fat rear down a while....Like the Pack, Fat Mac, not so much !!!:tsk:

Lacy was not playing at 234 last year. He was probably 40 lbs heavier than that..

The Bus played at 255, didn't stop him from being successful...But then he had Arians and an Oline that were very good at creating gaps for him to do his thing....I watched him hit the second tier and ran over Ray Lewis...That's their power point and the coach has to figure out a way to get him that opportunity....
I don't think GB is good at that, they may need AP to be effective behind that system.

The Bus had very nimble legs and could move very well behind the line. Sort of a freak type of athlete. And also, he was always big. He wasn't 215, then put on 40 lbs of fat in a year.

Lacy is always going to be a bigger back at 230 or so like the others you mentioned, but he proved last year that he can't play anywhere near to his abilities with all the extra weight. That's why he's been so dedicated to dropping it for this coming year.

Well what weight is he at now ? Last I heard he was in good shape, so why are they calling him fat man and still talking about him losing weight ?
