Official 2023 Predict The Packers Win/Loss Record Thread

[texaspackerbacker]

So you think Packers will win 5 more games with Love than they did with Rodgers? All You Need Is Love.

It's amazing to me that people talk like 10-7 is somehow optimistic.

If it was Rodgers this year, I'd be predicting 15-2 or 16-1. Injuries, of course, ruined last season. As Upnorth said, a great year is contingent on not having that many injuries again. Of course, there's always the Barry factor that could drag things down, but you would think maybe we have so much talent on the D that even he can't fuck it up too bad.

I would think Stokes would eventually get back to 100%, and with Douglas, Valentine, etc. to pair with Alexander, they can take their time with him.

Pros:
Fairly easy schedule
Defense has talent
Offensive line
RBs

Cons:
First year starting QB with rookie backup
No experience at WR
What might be the worst safety tandem in the league.
Even less experience at TE
The Barry factor

Same record as last year would be a high achievement.

I don’t like the early bye.

Semi straightforward road schedule - Steelers and giants will be tough.
Chiefs will be hard.
All road division games will be hard / expect to win one of 3.
Home division games will prob be a toss up - expect to lose one of 3.

I may be pessimistic on the young team but hope it’ll be entertaining. Most first year QBs struggle - so hope our running game, defense and special teams can play pivotal roles and not rely only on Love/WRs and rookie kicker to go win games.

I stand by 7 wins and wont be shocked with 10 wins. North of 10 seems unlikely.

10-7. Soft schedule this year helps. I think the defense better be fucking awesome or not just Barry, but MiLF for sticking with him have to sweat their jobs.

What was I smoking? I think this will be a rough season. Lose a lot of close ones, similar to Rodgers first year. I'm watching hoping to see a young team improve each week and show promise for next year. Probably closer to 6 wins than 10 to be honest. I would be pleasantly surprised if we win this week.

[smuggler]

What's your thinking there? The injuries too severe for him to recover his speed and/or his cutting ability? Something else?

Yeah he's got a nasty road in recovery. Not impossible, but he'll have to be a scrapper instead of a speedster, if he still wants to play well in the league. That's my take anyway.

[bobblehead]

I do not see a path for Stokes to be a good player in 2023, if ever again.

I have a fear you are correct, but I can't know to be honest. Only the team and Stokes know the answer to that for sure.

Vincenzo officially goes with a 10-7 season that keeps us short of the Playoffs.
Jordan Love is our future!

Poll closes in 24 hours.

[Bretsky]

Over 80% think we'll be over .500. Meanwhile the Bears are now favored to win the game.

[Joemailman]

Bears have been favored all along. The spread has actually gone from 2.5 to 1 in most places.

[RashanGary]

I keep imagining everything going well and going 10-7. The Doubs and Watson injuries are kind a rude reminder that everything isn’t going to go well. I switch to 7-10.

We can go .500 splitting in the division or worse.

WELCOME TO THE DARK SIDE !!!

Opens Door and makes you a Captain and Coke

With lower expectations, I won't be as disappointed. and I do want MARVIN HARRISON JR

[Joemailman]

RG didn't think these through. Poll can't be changed. The internet is forever. He goes down in history as a kool-aid drinker.

[ThunderDan]

I went 8-9. We don’t have ARod and even if he had a bad year last year, it is hard to believe Love will be better to start the season. Love needs live reps and will get them this year. I look at this year as a stepping stone. We will find out what we have in Love. We will find out if we need to draft a QB next year or if we can grab the piece to build a Superb Owl contending team in 2-4 years.

I hope the broken thumb and refusal to ùse young wr and lean on run game held us back to the tune of 5 wins. That seems reasonable right?
