2021 predict the offseason thread

[GB-Brandon]

Maybe they already have this “New Contract” thing worked out. We’ll see. If that’s the case then it’s “Game On”. My main point is something is going to give regarding this whole situation. It will not “Remain The Same” as time ticks on this offseason depending what’s done or not done!!

Time will tell. All we can do now is wait and let it play out and hope for the best. I hope it works out but have serious reservations due to how the Packer front office operates.

Just did my first ignore in 20 years. I'm pretty good at just ignoring idiots. I have a lot of unusual view points so ignoring the masses is something I've always had to do. Just so happens it sharpens my skills at ignoring random odd balls too. I'll miss the dick shrinking analogies and the other generally hilarious rips on the Packers. I just can't keep listening to the WR stuff. It's so damn tired with Tonyan, Adams, Lizard and MVS helping the #1 offense score points.

Ha; I'm disappointed you haven't put me on ignore at some point )))

So, are they going to free up the cap space by using Aaron's contract? If they do that, do they try to trade Jordan Love? Let's say they redo the contract to give space and but keep his comp at 33M which is quite affordable relative to his peers - is that effectively saying you're our guy not only next year, but in 2022? What about 2023? Rodgers took over after 3 years, so let's say they commit to him through the next two years. Would Love be cool with that? Does he even have a choice? Would they try to trade love this year to add a piece and go for it?

Lots of questions this off-season surrounding that cap space. Personally, I think they are going to use Rodger's contract to free up some space. I hope they go "all-in" and try to get the chip in the next two years. There's no guarantees in life so take your chances when you've got 'em.

This contract extending and restructuring is an EXCELLENT way to at the same time, help the Packers out of the cap crunch this coming off season and lock up Rodgers in Green Bay for the rest of his career - 6, 8, 10 years, as much as it is feasible to do.

And as the song or whatever goes, what's Love got to do with it? Trade him, let him get stale on the shelf, make him a kick returner and/or WR and/or wildcat QB for a few rare plays, any of the above; who even fucking cares? It was a mistake to draft him. BFD. Mistakes have been made before, and they will be made again.

Perhaps it’s the devastating Packer defeat that has left a sour taste in our mouths, but this is the sort of thread to make you throw up in your mouth. You spew a boat-load of Packer Homerism all season long that I personally skip over faster than I would something posted by Brandon.
Try coming down to earth man, a high post count doesn’t equate to high intelligence.
There’s an eye rolling amount of arrogance oozing out of your words!

[GB-Brandon]

Looks like a 1st and a 2nd or a 1st and a 3rd is what Rodgers would be worth in a trade. Something to keep an eye on.

Yep, the ultimate lurker. My first instinct is to refrain from posting unless I have something useful to add to a thread. So in most cases I just sit on the sidelines.

Regrettably, I went against my instincts with my last post to Brandon

In my many years on multiple forums, it's the first time I've actually put anyone on ignore. People NEVER piss me off with differing view points, odd takes, or such, but when someone posts 25 fckn times in the span of 2 minutes making basically the same remark, I don't need to see it.

[GB-Brandon]

Are people really upset with the posting or are they upset with the Packers failure to “Get Over The Hump” and recording their 4th straight NFC Championship game LOSS!! These results aren’t a result of bad luck yet just about everyone in here thought Gute had done a “Masterful Job” putting this roster together and they were wrong!!

The results certainly weren’t “Masterful.”

[GB-Brandon]

What are the goals for this organization and this team? What are the standards? Cause they run on the slogan of “Titletown” and “Championship Football” and “Vince Lombardi” and Etc Etc! Yet I keep hearing 13-3 and 26-6 and that is success!! This franchise hasn’t won a World Championship since 2010!

It appears that one narrative doesn’t equal the other!! I’m really confused!!!

Colin Cowherd predicting that Watt ends up in GB in the Texas situation. I love it. I think they can figure out a way to make the numbers work and I assume JJ would be very open to it given that his wife plays for Chicago already.

I’m not sure JJ Watt is the right move at this time. At his age with the way injuries have been pilling up in on him I would “Pass” if I was the Packers! 3 out of the last 5 seasons he hasn’t been able to stay on the field even half the season. This move looks more like bringing in a big name for big $ with a high potential for backfire!

Now if he would be needed in some type of “Scheme Change” that could change the conversation. Even then I would rather go younger.

[GB-Brandon]

All Rodgers has to say is I want a new contract and paid on my “New Valuation” at 43 million per year to set this whole thing off. I’m sure restructuring with more guaranteed $ over the next three years giving him security and Gutekunst finally doing his job and adequately supporting Rodgers will be enough and what Rodgers ultimately desires!

The question is will Brian Gutekunst and the Packers bend to Aaron Rodgers and be willing to push Jordan Love out until the end of his Rookie Contract?

I agree with you 100%. The content isnt the issue, it's the spamming of the forum. Over and over and over.
I agree that our team would benefit from better wr but their isn't a single team in the league (except maybe the bucs) that you can't say that about. And we have cap issues. Not recognizing this and spewing it over and over is just fn annoying!

[George Cumby]

I finally did the deed.

It's just so tiresome with NO added value.

[GB-Brandon]

“No Added Value” yet I’m positing on the very issues that affect the off-season the most! Tell me please what you guys want to talk about?

Please? I really want to know?

Trading Rodgers for Desean Watson?

I suspect with most posters it is not so much the what but the how. The repetitive, obsessive style of posting is what turns people off more so than the idea content. You post the same ideas over and over and over again, often times in consecutive posts. You're not having a conversation with other posters here, you're having an endless monologue with yourself. Who wants to read that? Try saying it once and only once, try listening to what others say and considering it before you respond, and I suspect you will get a more positive reception.
