They are one pick away from the Superbbowl.

Let's hope it is a Pick against the Vikings with 2:00 left in the NFC Championship game.

For some reason whenever i hear the "just a player or two away" argument, I always think of Lindy Infante.

Anyone remember Infante saying something like "we were just a few plays away from...."?

And Ron Wolf's response?

If you convince yourself that you're "really close", you end up finding yourself far away.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Who on the Packers staff is saying we are a pick away? I thought it was a writer, which if so, there's no real panic from this type of thinking.

In reality, I don't see it being so much that we need a good pick as much as a few details. Easiest on that list is cutting penalties. Giving up fewer freebie yards can make the difference between 3 points and 7 points (or having to punt for that matter.) Our secondary needs to stay healthy - this is a lot of what killed us in post season. Pressuring the QB would likely kill more scoring drives, and that's really where I think our D could really shine with a little work.

I do however agree that a couple of good picks could do us some good. Overall I see a good possibility to win the big show with some adjustments.
