2008 Wins

[Sparkey]

Predictions for the 2008 Packers and Aaron Rodgers ?

[PaCkFan_n_MD]

I say 8-9. The defense will be good, but the offense will not be in the top five again and thus we will lose a couple more games.

i think we'll do alright, if a-rod can stay healthy

he's a smart qb, with a good young WR core. plus he's got a solid team around him.

i'm guessing over .500, but not quite as good as last year

i really think we'll be ok

[Sparkey]

I think they can get to 10 wins in 08. Now, more so than ever, the ability to consistently run the football will decide how they do. I think Rodgers has to ability to manage a game and make some plays. He did it in the Dallas game.

However, the margin for error decreases. The interior of the offensive line is now their biggest area of needed improvement, on offense, from last year to this year.

Glad that Thompson has built a solid defense. It will need to be as stout as ever.

[gbgary]

9-12 wins and a 1st round ouster.

if he can't stay healthy (and his track record is terrible) all bets are off.

[Zool]

Assuming the defense takes another step forward like it did this year, and the running game can keep them off the field a little more often, 10 wins.

[KYPack]

I'm still a little weak.

10 wins is as good as any.

This all changes the draft, eh?

[Freak Out]

12-4 winning the SB.

[mngolf19]

I seem to be wrong on this more often than not. 9 wins. Rodgers has to show he can stay healthy and now with the Bears sucking even more.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Another poll question: will any NFC North team win more than 9 games?

[BF4MVP]

I think this is still a double digit win team with Rodgers at the helm..No way to know until it actually happens though

The Packers baby!

I like Rodgers, he is going to suprise some people, but he simply can't be compared to Favre, he will never live up to the expectations and the weight of it will crush him. If Rodgers throws for 24 touchdowns and 15 picks thats a great year, but will it ever hold up against Favre?

Rodgers brings mobility and ability to run for yards back to the position, which will be nice to see and may open up some throwing lanes that had disappeared later in Favre's career. There will be a difference without #4 but I think Rodgers has the moxi to lead this team to 10 wins.

We play the NFC South (which is weak) and the AFC South (which is very strong), in addition to the Cowboys and Seahawks and our division. I can see 10 wins there, but we're going to have to stop losing to the Bears.

[The Leaper]

I think Rodgers can lead the team to 10 or more wins if he plays a full season...my question is if he is durable enough to actually last 15 or 16 games.

[oregonpackfan]

I also think the Packers can win 10 or more games. With Rodgers at the helm, the Packers may sputter the first half of the season. Transitioning to a new starting quarterback after 253 regular season game starts will take time.

[Bretsky]

7-9 wins

[Partial]

7-9

[BooHoo]

I will say 8-9 wins. It will be very difficult for anyone to follow in Brett's foot steps.
