The rationalizations are amazing. Yes, the Packers are in the middle of the pack, as far as injuries go, THIS year. Yes, ACLs are now "commonplace."

What do either of those have to do with the fact that this team is decimated year after year after year? We field a JV team every year in the playoffs, then bitch that Kaepernick "runs wild."

And now again it is a new year, and perhaps if we make it to the postseason and meet them again, we'll see if any of the changes in packages and personnel pay off.

INdeed, given all the injuries.

Seems like those injuries were the difference between winning and losing in the playoffs.

In 2011 they were much healthier than in 2010. It wasn't the injuries, it was 8 dropped passes and 3 turnovers that knocked them out of the playoffs.

Buckeye's point is that it's ok to have this many consistent recurring injuries, because it didn't stop us one year? Remember 2008? That totally sucked shit.

These JV playoff appearances are wasting the great Aaron's career.

My point is, there are a lot more variables that go into winning then just injuries.

you bring up 2008 in 2014, why?????

The Packers were 6-10 in 2008 and you are blaming it on injuries?????

Fucking move on, that is my point.

THIS IS 2014, NOT 2008, NOT 2009, NOT 2010, NOT 2011, NOT 2012, NOT 2013!!!!!

Try enjoying the damn game, no matter who is playing!!!

I'm betting Aaron Rodgers doesn't lose any sleep over what happened in 2008, and I'm also betting whether he leads The Packers to another Super Bowl or not, when he retires, he will be labeled as one of the best to play the game in Green Bay.

Damn, figure it out, they are doing everything they can, you say you are a damn doctor of some sort, get the hell up there and tell them what they are doing wrong.

No injuries aren't good, but they are not the only thing that determines whether a team wins or losses.

You are going to be in f*cking heaven this year, because with the new rules, The packers better be able to put up 30+ points a game, that is just the way The NFL wants it.

You will call it stat-whoring,

The normal fan will realize that is what The NFL has become.

As far as the scoring goes the NFL says this is what the fans want (and most of them probably do) but all you ever hear is bitching and complaining when they change rules to make scoring easier. You never see a post stating "yippee, the new rules will make it easier for the offense to score" (probably because nobody ever bothers to type out "yippee" but you get my point)

Some people just don't like change but after the first year its not new anymore and they forget all about it. They simply don't like their game being messed with, especially those hung up on stats. I'm guessing very few people genuinely miss the good old days. The new game is just fine once they get over their initial resistance but just don't screw with it again, which we all know they will.

Zero2Cool (20h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (20h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (20h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

dfosterf (21h) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
