Steven Jackson: Here’s your reaction

Steven Jackson is off to Atlanta … Scott Rovak-USA TODAY Sports

I know there are thousands and maybe millions of Packers fans out there who might have a different adjective to offer, so I thought it might be fun to share with everyone what folks are saying about this mid-afternoon decision.

So, hide the children, put the dog in the kennel, break out the popcorn and prepare yourself for some entertaining reading. I’ll try to keep it as clean as I can … enjoy

Was this TT’s reaction after learning he didn’t land Steven Jackson? twitter.com/jrehor/status/…

RT @adamschefter: With respect to Rams, Falcons might have Greatest Show on Turf: Steven Jackson, Roddy White, Julio Jones, Matt Ryan.

The solution to no Jackson to the Packers in two words: Eddie Lacy

Desperately trying not to overreact about Jackson. Disappointing though. Means RB is a need for the draft presumably

@lombardiave Steven Jackson would’ve been nice but hopefully the back we do have can step up and create more yards…

@edubs2003 @wallypingel Hope is a big word, it would have been a sure thing if we got Steven Jackson.

#Falcons continue to work smartly in free agent findings. Steven Jackson is another. Looked strong late last year ( @adamschefter was first)

Small piece of your heart has to go over to the Atlanta Falcons right now! Not at the expensive of St. Louis, but for the good of Jackson

Bummer, missed out on Steven Jackson.. Just bring back @gregjennings I guess.

And this is why you have to be skeptical of every report RT @acmepackingco: Steven Jackson signs with Atlanta Falcons sbn.to/16vfvmK

Jackson to the Falcons. How many fans call for Teds head now?

— Jacob Westendorf (@JacobWestendorf) March 14, 2013

I will say – Pack missing on Jackson once they wanted him is the first huge surprise of FA to me (aside from some silly contracts)

— Andrew Garda (@Andrew_Garda) March 14, 2013

Ted Thompson what the hell are you thinking not signing Steven Jackson, ridiculous! #norunninggamenow

Steven Jackson has been playing indoor football his whole career. Absolutely no way he was going to come to the Frozen Tundra.
