Whatever!

He’s not a Raider.

He will probably go to HOF as a Packer.

Thanks for your time.

We need to move forward.

Glad he got eliminated.

He trashed the Raider Organization.

Hopefully he did not Trash the fans.

(He got my money, signings, Jersey, etc.)

Was paid like a Quarterback and took the Money and Ran.

Hope the RAIDERS can return to the Elite Teams in football.

Got Texans, Falcons, or Seahawks.

Hope Brady, Lewis, and 49ers get Eliminated NEXT!!!! (Tuck Rule/2000 AFC title loss to Ravens)

No one goes to oakland and gets better. NFL trash heap.
————-
How did you like watching that trash heap sweep your dumpster fire of a team this season? It’s laughable seeing a Chiefs fan talk any trash about any team.

—————————-

My team went out and did something about it.

No decent head coach will touch your garbage franchise, while you continue your decade long “rebuild”.

We’ll be looking down at you clowns again soon enough. Guaranteed.

I had a plenty of doubts when Thompson signed him; there were a lot of reports that he was already pretty much done. Couldn’t have been a better move. And his philanthropic work has been inspiring to watch.

@beedubyatoo….. Sorry but YOU are incorrect. Charles Woodson made that historical Heisman pose at Michigan. Feel free to google it. Go Blue!

Green Bay represent all that is good and right about the NFL. It is very unique, wonderful, and special.

Anyone who has been in the league for awhile learns it, then appreciates it, wishes it could be duplicated elsewhere, gets jealous of it, then comes to appreciate it all the more!!

It is fantastic being an owner and stockholder of a nonprofit corporation dedicated to football for football’s sake (and of course more World Championships than any other team).

C-Wood was the man in Oak Town happy for him and hes class act team. Just hope Reggie can make the GreenBay blue print work..

I recall Woodson having a rocking beginning in Green Bay. McCarthy laid down the law and Woodson eventually got on board. As for how a future #4 HOF QB handled McCarthy’s laying down the law (as it should be), that’s another story.

Woodson has done well at Greenbay, but doesn’t it seem like he is always blitzing and I usually never see him in coverage. Not sure if it’s because he can’t cover any more.

I’m so tired of Rich Gannon bashing the Raiders at every chance. If it wasn’t for the Raiders Rich Gannon would have never been a starting QB in the NFL. He would have been a career backup/journeyman QB.

Charles Woodson was a big time player with the Raiders. Only difference is that Dom Capers knows how to utilize his Safety Instincts. We just kept him on an island for some reason. With the exception of the Wolverine position that the Raiders used every know and then.

The only time Rich Gannon participated in big time football it was with the Raider Organization so disrespecting the Raiders is disrespecting himself.Without the Raiders nobody would even care about what Rich Gannon has to say.

The Heisman pose at Michigan was done by
Desmond Howard, not Charles.

I was very fortunate to have a sidelins pass to the last game of the regular season against the Vikings. about 1 1/2 hours before the game Charles Woodson was out on the field by himself running sprints and doing drills, when he finished he walked toward the tunnel were I was standing, I introduced myself and told him I drove 600 miles to see the game and wished he were active, he shook my hand and stood and spoke with me for about 10 minutes, he was very gracious and humble.

GO PACK!!!!!!

Moral of the story. One team has stability from owner/president/GM to trainer and the other team doesn’t.

For Raider fans, you have Reggie McKenzie how worked under TT in GB for many years so hopefully he brings the Raiders back to where they need to be.

Woodson was actually playing at a extremely high his 4 first years with the Raiders and then he got turf toe and it all went down.

Still….he stripped Brady in the Snow Bowl but Tagliabue didnt want Oakland in the Super Bowl so he had the refs create the tuck rule on the spot…

By: rayguyreturns

He was getting paid franchise money in Oakland and played 8 games a year due to injury. Wouldn’t a real leader lift weights, be a vocal inspiration and be a team leader? Would he say “it starts with me” ?

Or would he just cash it in?

You decide.

Funny thing is, Woodson was the back-up to the back-up plan… In 2006 the Packers lost out on their first two targets and ‘settled’ for Woody…some things just work out for the best…unless you’re the Browns…

He had never had an injury before and came to Green Bay only because it was the only team that offered him a free agent contract. You could see the old attitude early – he never participated in OTAs the first two years, but gradually bought in and became a team leader during Super Bowl win. Turned out great for both parties.

Coming to the most storied franchise I the NFL will change a guy. Can you imagine if he gone to a lesser team, like Chicago, Detroit, or–Hod forbid–Minnesota?

Dear lord. He’d have jumped to the top of the “talented but never going to win a Super Bowl in his career” list.

Charles Heisman pose will go down as one of the greatest poses in U of M history! And he played defense. Sorry
Manti. Heismans aren’t for silly losers.

The fact that he never lifted weights in Oakland is more of a knock on the Raider organization than it is on Woodson himself. If I had his natural talent and was earning his paycheck, I wouldn’t want to lift weights either. But I would hope that I had a coach and a training staff that held me accountable and forced me to do those things that make me a better player. It’s pretty obvious he didn’t have that accountability in Oakland.
