    Have the Packers won 7 super bowls?

      Did he say "Super Bowls" or titles?
      But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

        Hey they did win their final game 49-24 over Arizona. Bring back De'Mond Parker!

          No. Not yet. Perhaps you didn't know there were NFL titles before there were Super Bowls. Let me be clear. 7 times previously the Packers have started 4-0. Every time they have won the NFL Title. That included the first Super Bowl.

          With that lawless crowd
          While the killers in high places
          Say their prayers out loud
          But they've summoned, they've summoned up
          A thundercloud

            Okay if you want to use acme packers data to support your thesis be my guest. Since you are great historian how many other super bowl champions started 4-0? During the super bowl era -- what was the final result of 4-0 teams. Didn't the broncos started 4-0 last season?

              Do you consider records by Babe Ruth in baseball relavent? World Series Championships before the 1960s? Any NHL games when it was the original 6 teams?

                know nothing about baseball and hockey. lets examine the super bowl era and see the statistical significance of 4-0 with winning a super bowl.

                Making the playoffs is very high -- the Packers are almost assured a playoff spot.

                  Just five of the last 20 Super Bowl champions started the next season 4-0. Two of them, New England in 2004 and Denver in 1998, also were the last two teams to repeat as champions.

                  From Bossman's post in the GC.

                    Okay good stuff - 2/5 40%. Now go place your bold bet on the Packers.

                      Post has become a bit contentious, has it not? I think rbaloha1's point (which I share) is simply that at this point the D is a concern but I believe we all have faith in Dom and believe that it will be fixed...somehow.

                          And the Packers are four games into the season. The defense will not be the same as it is now for Week 17.
                          Those games coincided with Bob Sanders being healthy. IMO bob is the best run defending safety I have ever watched. He is sick. CWood is probably second (distant). That colts D went from bleeding rushing yards all season long to Bob Sanders being a run stopping stud that transformed the D in the playoffs.

                          So you are correct, but the timing wasn't a coincidence.

                              Exactly! Maybe the Colts do not win without Sanders -- defense improved big time.

                                Who's saying we are SB champs after 4 games? Do we have issues on D? Yes. Am I wringing my hands over it? No.
