HOW MANY WINS DOES GB END UP WITH
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

10-6 BH is traded in the offseason
Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

This is an interesting poll. 9 wins seems to be the EZ call. I almost didn't post it as an option to only leave the hard choices.....choosing 6-8 kind of implies we lack overall talent around the QB. Choosing 10 or more implies we have plenty of talen around on the team. At least that's how I interpret it. 9 wins to me is the ez and safe call.....basically we go .500 rest of way. I voted there.....not sure what I would have chosen if I HAD to pick 8 or 10-

Assuming Rodgers is out rest of the season, 7-9 is my bet.
U do not have a low enough bar. Let's face facts, Rodgers is the heart and soul of the packers. Without him, we will struggle almost every game. I did not even vote, cause the season is too depressing already.
Back in September I predicted we'd end up with 9 wins. Now, with Arod out, I'm in the 6-8 wins category.
I predicted 9 wins in September mainly because of our defensive problems, which I didn't think MM and TT had solved in the off season. Plus, I was not convinced the O-line would hold up.
With the Packers wins and losses are always a factor of how much Arod can compensate and overcome the propensity of the defense to give up big plays. Our secondary is still porous and our pass rush is still anemic. Now, without Arod to compensate, I think we're more vulnerable than ever.
One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Who the hell is gonna beat us? I ask that question every year when trying to justify not predicting 16-0. Of course, that doesn't figure in the FRANCHISE getting injured. Even so, as I said the other day, we damn near beat the Vikings in Minny with Hundley green and shaky. He's obviously gonna get better, and virtually everybody we play going forward is not as good as the Vikings. Carolina is pretty good; Philadelphia is off to a hot start - probably not nearly as good as their early record; Pittsburgh probably is better than they have played up to now; I honestly don't even see them beating the Rodgers-less Packers - and we may not be Rodgers-less all season.
I'll take 11 in the poll, but I really don't see where the 3 other losses come from.
What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?
Oh ye of little faith. Hot Rod Hundley will come through.

you crack me up. The injuries outside Rodgers are a huge factor - gotta get some supporting cast back, or there will be blood.

The poll is flawed, options are illegitimately restricted. I am sticking with my original prediction in the Predict Packers W/L poll started by Joe in September http://packerrats.com/showthread.php...in-Loss-Record: 5 wins for the season.
I think when I first hurriedly ran through the schedule and predicted a 9-7 finish, I had Seattle, Atlanta, Dallas and Minnesota beating us in the 1st 6 games. Arod saved our bacon against Dallas and Cinncinnati.
Who's gonna beat us from this point on? The Saints, Steelers, Detroit twice, Minnesota and the Panthers at home. That's 8 losses right there unless my math is off. All the teams above have great QB's except the Queens. But all these can be beaten with a great pass rush, a competent secondary and the ability to score 30 points or more a game. We've got little reliable pass rush, a leaky secondary and, now, no Arod to compensate for our banged up Oline and work his magic scoring points.
I'll be pleasantly surprised of course if I'm wrong. If Hundley turns out to be the second coming of Dak Prescott which you think he is, then all bets are off.

You mean when he threw the pick six?

I'm somewhat surprised Tex isn't still predicting 16 wins.

I'm waiting until I see Hundley this weekend. He's clearly way better than Seneca the elder, and he is also showcasing himself for a future contract, but will the shoddy line and his inexperience make everything a shit show?
Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!
