Jermichael Finley’s 4-star son makes a college commitment

Jermichael Finley’s 4-star son makes a college commitment

Kaydon Finley won’t be attending his father’s alma mater.

Here’s your chance to feel old. Former Green Bay Packers tight end Jermichael Finley’s son has made a college decision. The class of 2026 prep is a four-star receiver out of Aledo, Texas, in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

Unlike his father, Kaydon Finley won’t be playing at the University of Texas, as the younger Finley chose to commit to the University of Notre Dame over both Texas and Texas A&M.

Between Finley and Cristian Driver, the Minnesota receiver who is the son of Donald Driver, Midwest programs are benefiting from the...

Packers Top Plays of 2024, #6: Tucker Kraft rumbles for a 66-yard touchdown

Packers Top Plays of 2024, #6: Tucker Kraft rumbles for a 66-yard touchdown

Great play design, a fantastic individual effort from Kraft, and a big momentum shift put this play at #6.

Acme Packing Company’s countdown of the Top Plays of the Green Bay Packers’ 2024 season continues on today with a massive, game-changing touchdown. Tucker Kraft had a late-season breakout as a rookie in 2023, but his 2024 campaign truly cemented him as the team’s tight end of the future.

Perhaps no play better encompasses Kraft’s athletic ability and run-after-the-catch skills than this play from week five, which remains the longest reception of his career to date and shifted the momentum in...

Packers All-Quarter Century Team: Left Tackle voting

Packers All-Quarter Century Team: Left Tackle voting

Which blind side protector will earn your top spot?

Now that we are about wrapped up with the ball-handling positions on offense, our quest to name the Green Bay Packers’ All-2000s (so far) team moves on to the offensive line. We will start with the premier pass-protecting position, the left tackle spot, where the Packers have had two players locking down the blind side for the majority of the last 25 years.

Another pair of players have multiple seasons as starters around those two longtime stars, giving us just four nominees for consideration. Take a look below and give us...

Packers Top Plays of 2024, #7: Jaire Alexander pick-sixes Will Levis

Jaire Alexander collects his first career pick-six courtesy of Will Levis.

Our campaign through the Packers’ top plays of 2024 as voted on by the staff of APC continues today with our #7 play. This time, we’re heading to the Malik Willis era of Green Bay football, specifically his would-be vengeance against the team that drafted him.

The Game

The Packers were not expected to beat the Tennessee Titans.

That would have been a strange thing to hear at any point prior to the days immediately before the Packers’ Week 3 matchup with Tennessee. But with Jordan Love still...

Packers Film Room: Stealing a QB run for 2025

Packers Film Room: Stealing a QB run for 2025

Let’s dig into the Eagles playbook and take a core Power Spread play.

Last week, I wrote about the offensive approach we may see out of the Packers this year. The short version is that I’m looking for more of a Power Spread approach, which calls for the dudes on the offensive line to move people, the wide receivers to spread out wide and run defenders off more than engage in intense blocking, and a QB who can run.

To be clear, this would mark a fairly significant shift from how the Packers have operated in the past but, given...

Packers All-Quarter Century Team: It’s Time for Tight Ends

This one should be quite competitive!

In our continuing series on the Packers All-Quarter Century Team, let’s take a look at the big boy pass catchers. Those who straddle the line between receiver and, uhm, line. The line, line. It’s tight end time!

The Packers have quite the list of candidates for tight end this century. We have reliable security blankets, elite blockers, big-play specialists, well-loved internet characters, and Donald Lee. You could make the case for several of these guys, so let’s get to it!

Tight Ends Nominees

The CFL has its eyes on 2 Green Bay Packers

The CFL has its eyes on 2 Green Bay Packers

OL Brant Banks and CB Gregory Junior are on the Hamilton Tigercats’ negotiation list.

In the Canadian Football League, teams are allowed to add up to 45 players to their “negotiation list,” essentially their way to be able to call dibs on a player in that league. Who is eligible to make these lists? Pretty much anyone who isn’t signed to a CFL contract.

To paint a picture of how wide the scope is, let’s look at the quarterback market. Here are four quarterbacks in very different situations, all of whom are on CFL negotiation lists: Trey Lance, a veteran...

Thursday Cheese Curds: Packers have plenty of building blocks for sustained success

Thursday Cheese Curds: Packers have plenty of building blocks for sustained success

A large group of Packers players showed up in an intriguing thought exercise this week.

What does an NFL team need to have a successful run over a long period of time? That’ a question that GMs and front offices have been asking for decades, but the answer is probably pretty simple.

The problem is the execution.

First of all, you need a top-level quarterback. The Packers certainly feel that they have that in Jordan Love, who should only continue to grow in his third year as a starter. Next, you need a quality offensive line. That has been a...

ESPN names top all-time NFL draft selections in every draft slot

ESPN names top all-time NFL draft selections in every draft slot

Nine Green Bay Packers made Ben Solak’s cut, but Aaron Rodgers wasn’t one of them.

ESPN’s Ben Solak took on the tough task of attempting to correctly rank the best draft choice in modern (1967 and on) NFL history for every slot in the draft. In a project this wide, there’s at least one choice that he’ll make that will piss off every fan base.

For Green Bay Packers fans, it’s probably going to be his selection for the 24th pick in the draft. Instead of quarterback Aaron Rodgers, Solak went with former Baltimore Ravens safety Ed Reed, an eight-time...

Packers All-Quarter Century Team: Wide Receiver #3 voting

Jordy Nelson claimed the WR2 spot, but we have room for a third receiver.

We have our top two wide receivers on our Green Bay Packers All-Quarter Century team. Thanks to your votes, Davante Adams earned the top spot in a commanding victory, while Jordy Nelson was named WR2 with about 57 percent of the votes.

However, the Packers are largely an 11 personnel team these days, and they have used at least three wide receivers with regularity throughout the entirety of the 2000s. Therefore, we will be voting on a third wide receiver for our team from the options...

Both teams entered the season with high hopes. The Packers were looking to take a step forward after a narrow loss to the 49ers in the 2023 playoffs, while the Eagles were looking to return to [Super...

Report: Packers will reveal new helmets in July

Report: Packers will reveal new helmets in July

Green Bay might be sporting a yellow jersey with an airbrushed “leather” helmet in 2025.

The Green Bay Packers will debut an airbrushed “leather” helmet this summer that will be worn with the Packers’ 1950s throwback uniforms during the 2025 regular season. According to SportsLogos.net’s Andrew Lind, who does great work covering uniform changes in the NFL and other sports leagues, the Packers are going to unveil their helmet on July 23rd.

For what it’s worth, that’s the same day that Green Bay’s training camp will begin, a practice that will be open to the public, and two days before...
