Why do you say we should have kept him? What was so great about the Bears offense last year? Bears had by far the worst passing offense in the NFL last year.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
A thundercloud

Pretty much sums it up. Unless fields transforms into a great player and love flops, we should win.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostFormerly known as JustinHarrell.Comment

Fields reminds me of the first few seasons of the Vikings - they had Tarkenton and virtually nothing else. It still was frustrating at times, though, to see the guy run all over hell and occasionally pull a TD pass out of his ass.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

Back in the day, we beat Tarkenton the great majority of the time - because like the Bears now, the rest of his team was so bad, not to mention, Lombardi's Packers were so good, kinda like today's Packers too.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

I looked it up. Green Bay was 14 - 13 - 1 against Tarkenton-led teams. That's not what I'd call "the great majority of the time." But it was better than what I thought.Originally posted by texaspackerbacker View Post"The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

A lot of that was after the Lombardi era - when it was a great majority of the time.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

Also, during the Lombardi era, the Vikings were just added to the NFL and had been formed in 1959. We should be kicking the Tampa Bay equivalent from the 1970s ass.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.

I suppose I should have specified it to begin with hahahaha - so nice to have a God damned truth squad.
I remember the very first Packer/Vikings game, also Tarkenton's first game vs he Packers because it was my Confirmation Day - I had a bad look on all the pictures because I was getting called away from watchng the game (a 37-13 win as I recall - I suppose somebody will look that one up too hahahaha). In those days and for the rest of the Lombardi era, he did that scrambling thing a lot like Fields now. It was frustrating to watch, but since ya'all like to look things up, maybe check how many times we beat him in those early years. Sure, Tarkenton overlapped into the Bengtson years and maybe beyond, and he probably was still around when the damned Vikings got to and blew the Super Bowl (you can check that one too hahahaha).
The point being, when I said "back in the day" (if I said that), I meant when Tarkenton was at the stage of his career that Fields is now.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

IF they lose. I think it will be close, and the new kicker is what will cost them.Comment

I said they were a 9-8 team that would be fine finishing 5-12 with a top 8 pick due to rookie K/P. Then they can decide if the potential is playing out or they can move on after this young roster has a year under its belt. We aren't winning an Owl, might as well get a top pick and hope one of the 2 work out.Originally posted by Rutnstrut View PostThe only time success comes before work is in the dictionary -- Vince LombardiComment
