You guys get so offended that football nation doesn't acknowledge that the Packers have 60 pro bowlers, lol...
I think we got a lot of SB hype in the preseason b/c everyone thinks we should be better - afterall, we have arguably the best QB in the league; but when reality sets in, the flaws are there for everyone to see.

McGinn is a good reporter. I am sure he adheres to strict journalism ethics, and he would not have made up a source out of the blue.
It seems like McGinn's Deep Throat currently is employed by an NFL team.
"Selected because of his level of expertise and success in the NFL, he has studied the Packers this summer, this September and for years before that...His preseason pick to win the NFC North was Minnesota. "
Using inductive reasoning, I've come to the conclusion that this Deep Throat is none other than Rick Spielman, GM of the Vikings, or "Queens."
Believe it or not, the Vikings actually experienced success under Speilman. They were 13-3 or something like that one season, reached the NFC Title game and, if not for a Brad Childress fuck up late in the game (illegal substitution, I think, to put the Queens out of fg range), they would've made the SB.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
i would think we are a 9-7 or 10-6 type of team
i see the lions and bears as teams on the rise, while i honestly see us as regressing if anything
a-rod seems to be regressing, even though he had a huge day last week. he's making a lot of dumb decisions all of a sudden, almost like no one is willing to tell him "NO". and i find it absolutely shocking that our special teams and defense both seem to be almost worse then they were last year when they were both horrible
lets also no forget the year is still young, even though we've already lost a good amount of players for the year the usual packer injury bug hasn't fully hit yet this year.we're due some more major injuries before the season is over. its just the packer way
Good post. But I can't recall how many times I've read quotes from Capers about stopping the run being top priority with his defense.
I don't think Capers' philosophy toward stopping the run is "only an incidental aspect of the game." The DL and ILBs suck along with the safeties. That's on the GM.
Yeah, the Viking thing is a head scratcher... I figured they'd be vastly improved, but win the division??
As for my mind reading powers - I have a terrible hangover, lol... I never, or at least rarely drink, but my brother had a big birthday bash last night, and I stayed about 3 drinks too long

they look like a 8-8 today
Today Aaron Rodgers looked more like David Whitehurst that Brett Favre
He needs to be on his game or we will not beat anybody worth beans on the road
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 ?
i agree they look like 8-8 after today
so, the question becomes. how?
how has this team regressed so much? we should be better then last year because are guys are healthy and we have added some talent at positions where we needed some.
so what the fuck has happened?
to me, its fat mike. time for him to go. he's lost any edge he might have had, and he's too loyal to his shitty assistants
He certainly didn't do anything to get the offense on track in the second half. I think the offense was piss poor, especially the offensive line, and MM did nothing to mitigate that until too too late when he started having Rodgers throw shorter.
And was Adams open for the first down on that fourth down play?
And what the hell is wrong with Lacey? Since when did he become a dancing bear?
Ya know, if this turns out to be another "meh" campaign, I will climb on board the fire Mike train.

I agree the coaches need to be gone, but we all know that ain't gonna happen until a whole season of this shit, and then maybe not.
Nature of the league; it will be a roller-coaster year across the board.
Brandon Marshall, MAN...!!
Jimmie Johnson: Nascar's G.O.A.T......
i don't know if it was adams or someone else. but someone was running a short slant in front of jordy and appeared to have a step on his guy, at right about the first down marker.
of course jordy also had a step on his guy, but a-rod missed him
you'd think though that the shorter pass would have been easier to hit, AND SEE
He has lost Jennings two years ago, Jones and Finley this year. They haven't been replaced yet. Boykin has regressed and Rodgers doesn't trust the rookie WR.
Lacy started slow last year and actually was more effective when Rodgers was on the sideline.
They are going to need a midseason retooling again. The no huddle is not helping.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
You got it red. It's time for a massive turnover. I actually think we may need to be looking at TT. He hasn't replaced talent quite like he should be. It looks like we finally have Nick Collins replacement in Haha, what 4 years later? Our WR depth which used to be a strength, is now atrocious. The LB have started AJ Hawk for nearly 10 years and has also allowed the same mediocre talent to also start year after year. It feels like we need a change starting at the top.
It's startling to see three recent 1st round picks already described as JAG's by this unnamed source. Sherrod, Perry, and Jones. But I have to agree.
Missing that many high picks in a row leaves a talent void of impact type players. TT deserves some heat for that.
