I like Ted but he has done a terrible job with our line, if Tauscher would have gotten picked up by KC last season, the Pack would have been lucky to go 8-8. That isn't up for debate.
They were 13-3 and 11-5 in two of the last three years. That's not up for debate They've been one and three games away from the SB in the last three years. That's also not up for debate. They're young, just starting to grow up and ascending. I guess that's up for debate, but I think it's common sense.
Time will tell. If Ted's as horrible with the OL as you suggest, we'll be in trouble. I think it's going to work out, but time will tell.

They're also just one year removed from going 6-10. Your fate in the NFL is sometimes fickle.
I like there chances better than most teams (especially behind a QB like Rodgers), but things need to fall in place.
Things need to fall into place, but the odds of that happening are pretty good. The odds that the OL will be as bad as they were in the first half of last year are pretty remote. The odds that they'll have 3 CB's suffer season ending injuries again is pretty remote. The odds that Aaron will go back to holding onto the ball too long as he did in the 1st half last year are pretty remote.
A lot more things have to go wrong than right for the Packers not to do well.
I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up

QBs- AR have another MVP type year 4,000 yards 35 TDs and in the low teens for picks. Better skills at the dump off pass and the usual "slipperyness" in the pocket.
Matt Flynn to have another developing year as a number 2 QB
RBs: Grant- another solid year with 1200+ yards 10 TDs and develop as a better reciever out of the backfiled.
B Jack-do you want to be a Packer? This is the year you take hold of the number two spot with both hands and show why you were drafted.
Number 3 guy to be one of the most debated positions on the team
WR: Jennings has had a year to develop as a number one guy. He has seen what can be thrown against him as other teams gameplan for him and this year he adds 20 catches to his '09 total. This will also be helped by the emergence of the big man Finley.
Driver-late season drops are a thing of the past as he shows the young bucks on the team why he is da man...yeah I used da man
Jones, Nelson: who wants it? We need these two to step up their game. Both have the ability so time to show it.
TE: DAMN I AM EXCITED ABOUT THESE GUYS!!!! Lee will step it up as the number two guy so he can get a starting gig out there somewhere. Finley...STAY HEALTHY!!! If he does he is going to be the number 1 TE in the NFL next year...write that down...Havner is going to push Lee for time and this will enhance both of their '10 campaigns
OL: Tauch and Clifton...the last charge of the two imortals...this is really their last year, go out with a bang...AR is going to be on the isotoners comercials touting these guys. Wells keeps the haters at bay and starts again starting a 100 page debate on him again hehe. College doesn't get his "due" and gets pissed and breaks the blocking sled. no really...he is out to prove that a second rounder would have been a steal. Lang, Barbre, Giocomini and EDS...well no freaking idea! Sitton well he will just be a solid guy. Overall I think with another training camp under their belt and 3 vets on the line this group gels like Kiper's hair and forms a shield around AR!
DL: Sky is the damn limit here. Raji...2nd year...you know what to do now do it. Pickett...well you have done it since you got here. Jenkins...play those 12 games like you mean it. Harrell...bye...Jolly...cash money millionaire after he BLOWS IT UP this year, he will get a pick six...
LBs: Mathews...sophmore slump he only gets 15 sacks...ugh! Its okay CM we will love it! Hawk shows for the first time why he is the stud we drafted. He plays with reckless abandon BLOWING UP FBs...Chillar and Barnett will be solid...Pops could be the last run for this motor guy...Brad Jones decides...hmmm I like being a stud LB and loses the sack competition with CM by 4.
DBs: Woodson shows that there is room for improvement for him...yeah Harris learns the nickleback role well and actually thrives covering the third WR. Tramon develops into that 2nd CB we need. Blackmon and Bush get hurt or cut. Collins has a down year after a large contract. Mays comes in and starts from day one.
Packers go 10-6 wild card team, win two playoff games and fall in OT to the new overtime rules!
needless to say I am excited to watch the Pack this year. I think the defense will be AMAZING...I mean look what they did with only one year under Da' Dom. The Offense will attack and be amazing from the start and only give up 23 sacks all year.
Have some fun with it! What are all your thoughts about our team!?
Glad I was wrong about only 2 playoff wins
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.
