- Aaron Rodgers has the best preseason of a backup quarterback in Greenbay since Matt Hasselback.

- James Jones, Ruvell Martin, Carlyle Holliday and David Clowney are our 3, 4, 5 and 6 receivers, relieving us of Robert Ferguson.

- Celebrating Ferguson getting cut, Bretsky gets arrested for disorderly conduct for drunkenly and belligerently arguing with fans who disagree that Ferguson is a fraud.

- Last years nonexistent redzone running game becomes nothing more than a bad memory. The young, talented offensive lineman take that next step and begin opening up holes for Morency and Jackson to run through. Now defenses are forced to respect the run, allowing McCarthy, Favre and the offense to keep teams off balance in the redzone with a barrage of run/pass, run/pass. Brett Favre has put up big scoring numbers with some motley crew skill players. He's never produced with a bad offensive line. In 2007 he won't have to try and the whole offense will benefit from it.

- The Packers will keep four tailbacks. Morency, Jackson, Pope and Herron will share the running load in 2007.

- Brett Favre will make the probowl.

- Aaron Kampman, AJ hawk, Al Harris, Charles Woodson and Nick Barnett will lead the Packers to a top 5 defensive ranking.

- Even if Manuel is the starting SS, there will be improvements in the secondary. Confusion and indecisiveness will be replaced with aggressive, scheme disciplined play.

- Dave Rayner will be our kicker on opening day, showing that he has every bit the leg of Crosby but better accuracy after refining his skills last season in Lambeau.

- John Ryan and Dave Rayner will both be improved players in 2007. Ryan will give our punt coverage a better chance to succeed by getting more hang time and Rayner will help by reliably putting up 3 when asked.

- Rouse, Barbre and Kory Hall will add speed, size and nastiness to our coverage units.

- The Packers will beat the Eagles on opening day.

- The Packers will again play their best football in December because of the improved youth. This time they will ride that momentum into the playoffs with a 9-7 record.

- The Packers will win one playoff game showing everyone that they are a developmental year away from being a SB competitor.

- Favre will realize how strong this team is and how they are only getting better. He'll decide to come back for one more year.
