2008 Packer Won-Loss Prediction

[oregonpackfan]

OK, last year was a very pleasant surprise for all of us. Most of us predicted the Packers would finish around .500. We thought those who might think the Packers would finish an incredible 13-3 would be stumbling around from the intoxication of drinking too much Kool-Aide.

What is your regular season 2008 prediction for the Packers?

Mine is 10-6.

I think the Packers will initially struggle on the offensive side in the first half of the season. With a few starts under his belt, Rodgers will be directing the Packers to more wins than losses.

11 and 5.
NFC North Division Champs.
One home playoff game.

Bet my buddies that for every win above 9 and 7, they pay me $5.
For every loss below this mark, I pay them.

Last of the red-hot, big-time gamblers, that's me

[SkinBasket]

Don't we have one of these already somewhere?

[Oscar]

Last season I picked 10-6 I think this year we go 11-5.

[Lurker64]

11 and 5 sounds about right.

[The Leaper]

Awful early to make a prediction, but I'll guess 9-7 at this point. I'm guessing there will be some ups and downs, but the team will finish strong and earn a playoff berth.

Here's the schedule for '08:
Mon., Sept. 8 Minnesota Vikings
Sun., Sept. 14 @ Detroit Lions
Sun., Sept. 21 Dallas Cowboys
Sun., Sept. 28 @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Sun., Oct. 5 Atlanta Falcons
Sun., Oct. 12 @ Seattle Seahawks
Sun., Oct. 19 Indianapolis Colts
Sun., Oct. 26 Open Date
Sun., Nov. 2 @ Tennessee Titans
Sun., Nov. 9 @ Minnesota Vikings
Sun., Nov. 16 Chicago Bears

Sun., Nov. 30 Carolina Panthers
Sun., Dec. 7 Houston Texans
Sun., Dec. 14 @ Jacksonville Jaguars
Mon., Dec. 22 @ Chicago Bears
Sun., Dec. 28 Detroit Lions

I would have said 10-6 before looking at it, but now I think 11-5 is not unreasonable, even if they lose to the Cowboys and Colts in GB.

Thats how i could see it going 11-5, but i agree its probably too early to tell

[The Leaper]

Can't see us winning on the road in JAX.

Can't see us winning on the road in JAX.

As with every year, we'll win some games we think we should lose and we'll lose some games we think we should win. A lot of it comes down to momentum and injuries. If they're beat up and we're not, we've got a dramatically higher chance of winning, and vice versa.

I think our defense should be good enough to hold Jacksonville in check, the issue will just be "can we score enough points?" and having not seen enough from Rodgers yet, I have no idea.

Is this the Official Win-Loss Prediction thread, or just a warm-up prediction thread?

Last year we had one very early and then I made what I guess you could call an official one after we got to see them play... 2nd or 3rd week of preseason. Saved it and brought it back at the end of the season to see how everyone did.

[Kiwon]

Way too early to even guess, IMHO.

Wait until August.

[Iron Mike]

I'm calling 16-0 again this year.

I was a hell of a lot closer than the majority of you were last year. :P

[BF4MVP]

Another 13-3 season, baby
