Ouch! King Not On Cheesehead Bandwagon.

[red]

25 seems a bit low, but not by much

we were very close to being a 6-10 or 5-11 team last year.

i'm with wist with not being all full of confidence about our o-line. they needed a lot of extra help last year to protect brett

our running game is one giant question mark. we could be horrible, or we could shock everyone. who knows? no one

while the d should get better, 2 very key guys continue to age in harris ad woodson. we could be in serious trouble if we lose one of them for any amount of time

add to that the fact that it looks like we are playing one hell of a difficult schedule and you can see why someone could rank us so low

we could be pretty damn good this year, or we could be flat out horrible

thats why they play the games

sports illustrated. Peter King Here is the link to his latest column. He's not really a Packer basher in my opinion. I kind of like him.

25 is too low; IMO we should be in the 15-20 area.

While the RB's look ugly on paper, the OL should improve. TE's stink and we have no upgrades yet. Slight improvement by the defense. Offense will still be consistently inconsistent. But we still should be about average.

Its King....he has the Lions rated #13

If memory serves me correctly he also had the Vikings going to the playoffs last year and also picked the Vikings to go to the Super Bowl a few years back.

I'm not even going to bother reading the article because most of his predictions are garbage......he's just trying to enflame people and sell magazines.

Re: Ouch! King Not On Cheesehead Bandwagon.

Not that it matters, just another useless article. Still, kinda surprised to be this low. I mean 25? Our D's potential makes us a top 15 team alone.

It isn't that the Packers are a bad team. Their schedule is rather difficult compared to last year. They are an injury away from serious disaster at 3 positions (QB, WR, CB) and were LUCKY last year to have no major injuries at those spots last year. There are far too many "ifs" and not enough certainties. Not everything is going to go right this year...and with a little bad luck this is a team that can easily go from 8-8 to 5-11 or 4-12.
