Packers trying for Larry Johnson?

[Partial]

Its amazing how many people must not have watched too many new england games last year. Dillion is washed up.

He isn't any more washed up then a running back who has to leave the field because of his asthma. I am not saying the guy will rush for 2,000 yards but he is a viable starter who can split time with Morency and Jackson until either of them are ready to be the full time starter. Right now, we do not have a running back in camp that has proven they can take every snap. Dillon can take every snap and although he isn't what he used to be he is far from washed up. I guess Favre is washed up to since he only threw 18 TD's last year.

Personally I think Favre and Green are both washed up.

Partial.

Personally I believe that our glorios GM Ted Thompson, has done all within his incompetence or inability to ignore our needs offensively. To assist you Partial, in being correct regarding Favre's chances of success as a starting QB is one thing.

To condemn Brett Favre as being washed up. . . is the height of ignorance. One must of course take into account your obvious immaturity and therefore inability to exercise tact.

It's rather interesting to me as a member of this forum, that so many of you lack the ability to project the reason for truths,rather spread the blame of our failure on the ignored talents of the our real heroes.

Ted Thompson will never be one of mine.

This may assist you Partial in gaining a proper or more accurate assessment of reality today in Packer land:

Packer fan's submission.

Overall, I think we are a much better team at most positions and either better or even at every position on defense. I think the area we are most improved is in the back ups and special teams.

What is your assesment of the look of the roster prior to the 2004 season and the look of the roster prior to the 2007 season? I think we have better team chemistry, better potential and youth, better depth but not as much experience. Some of that goes hand in hand but I feel we are a better team than we were prior to the 2004 season.

PETE DOUGHERTY:

I disagree with your assessment of the offenses. That's the year Walker broke out, and the Packers don't have a playmaker of his caliber, and Green was still a really good back, we can't say that about Morency and Jackson.

Plus, Favre is three years older. And the offensive line was excellent that year, one of the best in the league.

The line now could be a year away. So while I'd agree the defense is better, I'd say the offense isn't close to as good on paper. But that's only on paper.

Maybe Jackson ends up being good, or Jennings has a huge year. Those are maybes or projectsions.

Back in '04, Green wasn't a projection, and Walker had started showing real signs of breaking out the second half of '03, and the line was already good in '03. So I'd say things looked better going into '04.

[RashanGary]

Things looked better on offense going into 04. This year things look better on defense IMO. I think Jennings will have that breakout year and the RB committee will do just fine.

I think that a Favre/Driver/Jennings led offense with a completely intact, maturing line will be enough not to lose games for us. The defense is good enough to win them.


If Hawk is as good as Walker and Kampman is as good as green in 04, we have a chance to be as good as that team. I acctually think we can be a 10-6 team with a few bounces our way. 9-7 is my prediction, but 10-6 would not suprise me at all.
