Official 2013 NFC Playoff Standings Thread - 12 Weeks To Go

[Pugger]

Atlanta inexplicably traded away a bunch of picks for a WR the year after we torched their defense in that playoff game in January 2011. In contrast TT tries to stockpile picks every year. TT gets blasted for not signing FAs. We all wanted TT to go after Steven Jackson and he was standing in street clothes the other night watching the Falcons lose again. I'd much rather be in our situation with a young buck like Lacy behind Rodgers instead.

No team in the league has that kind of proven depth at multiple positions. You just have to hope that the next guy in line steps up.

GB was an exception at the WR position for a couple of years. Hindsight has shown us that the kool-aid drinkers were right, there were 3 #1WRs on the team in Driver, Jennings and Nelson. And JJ is no worse than a #2 on just about any team.

Excepting that there never really was a true overlap of three #1's - Jordy comes in in 2009 and by 2010, Jones and Nelson were taking a lot of the receptions from Driver and his drop off was evident. (funny, pro football reference has Nelson listed as KR/PR in 2009 and KR in 2010 - even though he had supplanted Driver by that point).

i wouldn't mind taking an approach that is somewhere in the middle

what you listed were two extremes, theres a lot of room in the middle

Win Now!

i remember how most people on here acted when we got rid of that asshole. "we can't get rid of him, look at our win %"

i kept saying, "its not him, he has a good team and we win in spite of our coach"

just like i say these days with fat mike

well what the hell has sherman gone on to do after we canned him? he couldn't even cut it in college. we did win back then because of the players, not the worthless fat fuck coach....

just like we are now
