9-8. It will be an exciting, but bumpy ride.

I was wondering if there was gonna be a thing like this? I'll get back to ya'all after I give it some thought.

Fritz
08-27-2023, 11:02 AM
I went with 7 - 10, though I almost hit the 8 - 9 button. I think the offense is going to be rocky, in large part because I think MLF is slow to adjust to certain problems, and I think Myers starting at center is going to be a problem. The middle of the line's going to get caved in - no room to run, pushing the pocket when Love is trying to pass - and I don't see MLF adjusting until the team's lost a few. Plus you're going to have the young receivers dropping the ball, running the wrong route - the usual learning stuff.

And I still don't trust Joe Barely. With all those damn first round picks, I can still see the Packer defense getting run on, over and over and over.

Yet there will be flashes on offense, and the defense will again straighten up a bit toward the end of the season. So it'll be a fun ride this year, watching how it all plays out sans Rodgers.

Again this year, I don't see any clear and obvious losses, but they undoubtedly will stumble 3 or 4 times, especially with the young QB(s) and Barry coaching the D. The team is loaded, though.

Will go with my previous prediction, 10-7. 4 game losing streak mid season after hot start. Wild card game probably on the road but winnable. Giants game will be the key to ending up with a good season.

1 at Chicago W 20-17 1-0
2 at Atlanta W 31-20 2-0
3 New Orleans W 21-20 3-0
4 Detroit L 14-28 3-1
5 at Las Vegas W 24-21 4-1
6 Bye
7 at Denver L 12-19 4-2
8 Minnesota W 17-16 5-2
9 LA Rams W 26-17 6-2
10 at Pittsburgh L 16-23 6-3
11 LA Chargers L 24-35 6-4
12 at Detroit L 21-35 6-5
13 Kansas City L 28-42 6-6
14 at NY Giants W 24-23 7-6
15 Tampa Bay W 35-13 8-6
16 at Carolina W 28-26 9-6
17 at Minnesota L 17-10 9-7
18 Chicago W 24-14 10-7

10-7. The offense will be roughly equal to last season as Love learns the ropes, but the defense will be improved. This team will be fighting for a playoff berth in December.

RashanGary
08-27-2023, 08:44 PM
Love doesn’t seem to have a quick release at a glance. But in the bits I’ve watched he’s shown some good streaks of consistency.

Mainly I doubt him because great quarterbacks are pretty rare. And I don’t want a decent qb. I want a great one. So just going off of odds, I don’t like his chances.

But I’m still gonna say 10-7. I think he’s got a solid chance to be above average and he’s shown enough to have hope for greatness too.

MadScientist
08-28-2023, 08:31 AM
10-7 there's a lot of talent on this team, but most of it is young.

bobblehead

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.

QBME
08-29-2023, 05:44 PM
I dunno
Just got the opportunity to watch the last preseason game
Some good, some middling
Some bad
At this point I'd say we're a .500 ball club, but with 17 games there is no such thing, so 8-8 is not possible
Next iteration is 9-8
But I'm a homer, and willing (hoping) to give a shadow of a doubt
So, 10/7 and a playoff berth

I really hope Jordon Love learns how to put a touch on touch throw's

I dunno

I picked 13 -4 as well.

Some key assumptions
1) qb doesn't break his thumb
2) qb doesn't put talented wr in dog house if they drop a ball
3) ol needs to maintain blocks for less time, plus it is improved
3) hype of d from last year materializes this year
4) Amari Rodgers gone and full year Nixon
5) bak Gary and stokes return to form after injuries.

This is a great schedule.

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.

beveaux1
09-05-2023, 12:48 PM
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.

Fosco33
09-05-2023, 05:03 PM
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.

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

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 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.

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.

texaspackerbacker
09-11-2023, 09:50 AM
Do I really have to say it? Do ya'all really not notice the difference? Virtually every game forever, Rodgers got rushed quick and hard, forced to unload it quick or else move out of the pocket. Love yesterday was able to drop back most of the time in a nice clean pocket, scan the field, and do what was necessary - a lot like what the situation was for Brady in just able every Patriot game he played and most with Tampa too. I'm not sure if our O Line pass blocked that good or if the Bears pass rush just sucked so bad, but either way, that was the result.

A difference I noticed also between the not so good first half and the much better second half was the deeper dropbacks in the second. Apparently LaFleur or whoever analyzed at halftime that it wasn't necessary to unload quick like Packer QBs have always had to do.

My worst fear on Myers came out in this game. The Bears exploited his weaknesses while not allowing him to play to his strength. He was awful. It pisses me off even more that this staff won't let Yosh play RT and move Tom to C (although holy Fuck is Tom going to be a star).

I've got a degree of respect for you, unlike the ignorant piece of shit who posted right after mine above.

I'd concede that Meyers hasn't been great lately although not as bad as some seem to think. I'm confident that he will get back as good or better than he was his first year.

As for Bakhtiari, I stand by everything I've ever said about him, and I'm shocked that others see him as all that special. Even against the Bears when the whole O Line did a damn good job, Bakhtiari was the least of the group on run plays. How people who see plays through him that fail while things are working so much better elsewhere across the line can still prop him up as so great is just weird.

And bobblehead, you think the half-assed Bears took advantage of Myers or anybody else in that game? Come on!

smuggler
09-12-2023, 06:26 AM
I'm starting to become less and less optimistic about Myers, but otherwise your assessment of the passing game and protection against the Bears was pretty accurate, tex.

Whether it was because they noticed the Bears weren't able to generate much heat, or because they decided to take the training wheels off, the second half definitely felt more opened up vertically and in terms of longer-developing plays.

On the first TD pass to Doubs (1st Q), Love actually creeps forward in the pocket a bit too much and finds pressure, where there really wasn't any.

Tex, after rewatching the game I admit my assessment of Myers has changed some. He was actually WORSE than I had thought. He was actually all time bad in this game. Its a testament to the rest of the offense that he didn't single handedly sink them. Myers needs to be replaced. End of story.

I would think teams will, unlike da dumb Bears, go after Love with blitzes until he proves he can handle the pressure. I'm guessing we'll see a lot of that down in Atlanta and thereafter.

texaspackerbacker
09-12-2023, 10:33 AM
Weird how the Meyers hate is coming out by some hahahaha. One questionable bad snap to Love that resulted in a long gain, one meaningless possible bad snap to Clifford when the game was won, and he did an at least adequate job of run blocking and like the rest of the line, a damn good job of pass blocking.

Other than routine Bear stupidity and suckage, why wouldn't the Bears blitz Love? Or did they and it was picked up?

Atlanta is undoubtedly better than the Bears on D, possibly not as good on offense. I'll go out on a limb early and say we beat them fairly easily too.

The 9-8, 8-9 crowd is the who’s who of level headedness.

I see it as three asshole I will really love or three others I will blame for the season.

Of course all 6 of us could be wrong with a tie.

It was a very level headed guess. Good job guys!

17 out of the 26 votes were within one game. That’s pretty good too. And the majority were one gsme better than we finished so that shows the homerism that all good fan bases should have while still being realistic.

I was tempted to go 10-7 because I felt the schedule was easier than the year before. But the fact that they had 9 road games this year stopped me from doing it. Of course, If I had known that Bakhtiari, Watson, Jones and Alexander would miss as much time as they did, I might have said 7 wins.

They wildly over-exceeded my expectations. The youths really played well. This looks like a historically good draft right now if the players don't regress/get-hurt. I think I was in the 5 wins camp.

Team would've had 11 or 12 wins without Jones getting hurt or with a decent D coordinator. Honestly shoulda had that anyway.

Speak for yourself. I still think we might get 13-4 this season and secure #1 seed in nfc.

Nobody can drink as much koolaid as fast as Tex.

You'd think someone that relentlessly optimistic would have a sunny disposition.

I can't remember if my official guess was 7 - 10 or 8 9, but either way, I were wrong.

Still mostly possible, the 13 win would mean Packers made it to the SB so they would be the 1 in the NFC by default.

Mailman sets his polls so you can see. If you click on the number of votes it shows who voted what.

Will go with my previous prediction, 10-7. 4 game losing streak mid season after hot start. Wild card game probably on the road but winnable. Giants game will be the key to ending up with a good season.

2 at Atlanta W 31-20 2-0
3 New Orleans W 21-20 3-0
4 Detroit L 14-28 3-1

6 Bye
7 at Denver L 12-19 4-2
8 Minnesota W 17-16 5-2
9 LA Rams W 26-17 6-2
10 at Pittsburgh L 16-23 6-3
11 LA Chargers L 24-35 6-4
12 at Detroit L 21-35 6-5
13 Kansas City L 28-42 6-6
14 at NY Giants W 24-23 7-6
15 Tampa Bay W 35-13 8-6
