The thing about writers that drives me nuts is they just don't get it how important depth is. Every year they want to look at the starting 22 and then determine how they will fair.

The problem with that is the starting 22 is NEVER the ending 22. Near the end of the season when ALL teams have had to replace a significant number of players due to injury that starting group doesn't look close to the same most often.

This guy talks about the starting lineups and how 15 positions are better or the same. How about the next 22? I can tell you without hesitation that if you put the guys we have now up against who was there in '05 the current backups would beat the dog crap out of those guys.

Many of these guys are in rotations and have a huge impact on overall play. You have nickle and dime packages, DL rotations, and different WR sets. When you start getting into that there is just no comparison.

I'd say that's a good thing. It's certainly a welcome relief from the dissension of previous years.

All we need now is for Aaron Rodgers to look into the camera and say "We are going to go all the way this year. If you don't believe it, bet against me."

What dissension? Oh, that's right, those BW (before Wade) years -- now you have this weirdo from Iowa hanging out here, there's no need to resort to gratuitous complaints about Favre, Thompson, Tony Mandarich, etc.

Of course there's still foster's truck, kevin's daughter, rourke's sex life, formo/vikesrule/polargrizz's continuing bad taste in football teams, etc.

Very well said. If you look at Sherman's 22, there were a lot of good players. But once you got past that 22, you had Arena Leaguers. And when injuries happened, we looked pretty downright embarrassing.
