In this off-season edition of The Show, we break from our regularly scheduled programming...
Ahhhh, Coach's favorite time of year. The sun is out, the NFL Draft is behind us and Spriggs is in the air. That's right kids, time for the OTA's, or as Coach likes to think of it, the Underwear League (UWL). Prior to training camp all NFL teams must conduct practices without pads, no hitting is allowed and no real football is the result ... kinda like youse guys do in the parking lot at Lambeau before the game. Despite the limitations on play, this doesn't prevent Coach from having a look at the talent. Coach is dedicated to improving your football experience, so the following should provide a guide for everyone scoring the game at home. Keep in mind that the players are running around in their underwear, so it's difficult for anyone to shine unless they are throwing or catching the ball. And watch out! When Mike McCarthy dubbed Dvante Adams the MVP of the OTA's last year, everybody was soooo excited. Even Aaron Rodgers was unusually complimentary of the 2nd year receiver last June, remarking "...he catches the football most of the time when we don't wear pads, and I saw him slam dunk a basketball! He's neat!" Coach was lulled into thinking Dvante could easily fill Jordy's shoes after his ACL popped in Pittsburgh, based on such high praise from Eminem and A-Rod. Coach will not fall for that again! No, this year's prediction for the Packers 2016 OTA MVP will be based on objective bias, branded precision, and real time high definition replay footage. Oh, and by the way, being the MVP of the OTA's is a curse ... sorta like being on the cover of Madden. Not good. Dvante Adams' collapse in 2015 is proof of that. Remember who won OTA MVP the prior year? Colt Lyerla. Nuf sed. So, without further adieu, Coach makes some pretty rock solid predictions for the 2016 UWL MVP: Good luck, Mitchell!
