He does have a point in the article though - The Packers aren't improving, while the rest of the NFC North is. Biggest move in the division is the Lions firing the incompetent Schwartz.

Packers had $10m in cap space in 2013. It wasn't a salary cap issue that kept GB from bringing in a defense.
I find it difficult to draw any conclusions from this Packers season other than the NFCN really, really sucks and that isn't going to change as long as Stafford is in Detroit and the Bears have an even worse defense than GB.

i thought the packers were up against it with the cap. well at least TT can draft WR's! wish i could say the same about our team. the best WR we have was drafted by mike singletary...

Lol, I just remembered when I was visiting my folks in Southern California, people were wearing Danny Woodhead jerseys...It struck me as incredibly funny and weird.
there are too many things to quote and laugh at in this article
my favorite part was "The Packers need to find tougher players from the standpoint of injuries"

What about the last 3 seasons then?
Green Bay's defense is almost as awful as Chicago's and doesn't look to improve anytime soon.. I get that the Lions and Bears haven't been able to get their heads out of their own asses long enough to string together wins, but are you that confident of the Pack being able to dominate them and win the North?
It wasn't that long ago that the AFC North was Pittsburgh's to lose.

God, I hope the AFC Championship isn't Rivers vs. Brady. I'd rather see Andy Dalton vs. Brandon Weeden.
Go Pey Pey, save us!
First game, eh..... gotta go Panthers. Coin flip game for me though. Don't care, backing Wussle from here on out in the NFC.
Quick summary of the Colts -
Good season. Went undefeated in the South (not hard this year) and won the division. Won their first playoff game, all with having the most players in the league on IR - including Reggie Wayne, Dwayne Allen, Vick Ballard, and Donald Thomas. Hate losing to the Pats of all teams, but despite quite a few questionable calls, that didn't decide the game at all. Colts got their ass handed to them. Old Bill deserves Coach of the Year, and it kills me to say it isn't even close. If you take the players they've lost through IR, FA, and prison, you could field a pretty damn good football team. It's incredible what he's done this year with the Pats, and COTY shouldnt just go to best record turnaround. Also, hadn't heard of Jamie Collins before this game, but dude is a fucking player.
Going Forward - If Satele and McGlynn are still on this team next year starting.... I don't know. That's all I can say. Pep and Pags need to realize the personnel. Don't treat Luck like a game manager. Let him do what he does. Both lines need retooled. You need at least one more pass rusher. CB2 is a concern. Need to cut your loses with Laron Landry...... just be rid of him. Reminds me of Tom Zbikowski.... not a good thing.
Last thought - Trent Truck. You got swindled. I don't mind rolling the dice. You lost this one bad, it happens. He's cheap, see if something can turn around for next year. But as of now..... it would take a fucking miracle. The play where he ran to the right, had a block, and could have at least gotten 10..... and he stopped, waiting for the Patriots guy to get up from his block and tackle him..... just wow. It MIGHT turnaround.... and I might learn how to fly. Never say never I guess. Looks like one of the worst trades of all time right now. Congrats Browns! Savvy trade!

The first game had 19 pts and a under 600 yards combined.. yet they are going to score 63 today ?
And lol Chargers beat Donkeys by 15 and Broncs only score 20?
You try to post the worst prediction?
yea how dare they, right? the broncos didnt play through that whole 16 game preseason to lose in their first real game!

Calling the regular season a '16 game pre-season' has to be one of the worst things ever. Told you Broncos fans are the cockiest bunch here.
You donkey fans are really trying as hard as you can to out cunt the 07 era Pats fans! Its working fucking great btw!
Nah just can't believe the scores people are posting. 14 points from Denver? That's ridiculous. They have all their offensive weapons back in this game. If they lose the score will be something like 35-31 or 38-34

I generally don't care what happens this postseason, as long as the Pats don't make it to the Super Bowl. I'm scared to death of a Pats/Broncos AFC Championship game for that reason. Belichick owns Peyton in the playoffs.

Killa's swag is on a billion
are you by any chance the quarterback of an undefeated team?
But there is also this, I found on a sport page "Seven seasons in a row, the Redskins have played the eventual Super Bowl champs, and in the last three seasons, Washington has won that game. The 3-13 Redskins beat only one playoff team this year:You guessed it."
Denver, Colorado owns Tom Brady though.

No, 4 Pre-pre-season games, 16 pre-season games, 2 semi-season games, 1 regular season game.

Looks like 80s era wrestling boots ha
Denver Colorado owns Peyton though
we're only going to score 17 points? heh heh heh

Practical shoes. Even have water bottle holders on the back.

Love it. I hope he pulls this off and beats the Seahawks too
Think it came out today his physical exam will determine his playing next year, not playoff results.

I'm sure as of right now he's focused on each game too much to think about post-season plans.

You're precious.
The Pats are in the AFC Championship despite Brady playing like dogshit this season. He's not going to be throwing a lot in the next game.
Pittsburgh is old. You can't fix old. Green Bay lacks talent at a couple positions. One safety and another linebacker and that defense is above average. Packers are super young. I'm not at all concerned until Fraudgers ages out like Brady.
he probably wants some more regular season career records, he won't retire until he gets those.

Wants a perfect regular season as well.
Between you, Bread, and Lunchbox, one would think that Broncos fans are about the worst fans in the NFL. Oh well, you guys are entitled to your opinions. I'm not continuing the cycle of hate. Have a good day
no one is going to give you sympathy for waiting a little over 15 years for a title. it's not your year and i hope you suffer.
