I forgot how frustrating that 2008 season was.

Yes. Coming off a 14-4 season to go to a 6-10 season, it's easy to point fingers. The good thing is 2009 proved without a doubt that the fault fell to the D, not the O. I think most rational fans nowadays put Rodgers in elite status.

Fix the D and this team has as good a shot as anyone to win it all. The OL problems were addressed in the offseason (including the draft).

All the evidence you guys put forth notwithstanding (am I using that correctly?), a good general rule of thumb is: if you think you are the only one that is correct on the matter, you are probably wrong.

As for some of the numbers presented, I'm actually surprised our percentage of passing plays is down over the last two years compared to the previous four. I felt they would have been marginally higher.

I'm not sure if those rushing numbers count Rodgers' rushing attempts (scripted and otherwise) or only rushes by our half- and fullbacks. If they don't include Rodgers' rushes, then the ratio difference is even more pronounced.

Very good video. I bet dhazer doesn't have the guts to watch it all. :)

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

OK, I watched the video. At 0:35, he said Rodgers is better than Brett Favre, and means 2009 (not career, but 2009 only).

Well, 2009 ended, and they were neck and neck.


QB           Att     Cmp  %     Yrds         TD    %     INT    %    LG     Y/A
Rodgers   350  	541  	64.7  4434  	30  	5.5  	7  	1.3  	83  	8.2
Favre    363  	531  	68.4  4202  	33  	6.2  	7  	1.3  	63  	7.9

Favre statistically was a better passer, but if you factor in Rodgers 5 rushing TDs, it puts them neck and neck as QBs.

Good video though. Weird thing about the OT coin toss. We won the coin toss 2 for 2 times in '07 and in '08, lost it both times and both times, the D allowed the bad guys to kick the game winning field goal before our QB (in this case Rodgers) had a chance to step onto the field.

There's one more intangible. GB has a worse OL, but let's not kid ourselves and say the Vikings' OL is that good. It's mediocre (ask Formo how he feels about his OL).

Would be nice if we'd win a SB already to silence the Aaron Rodgers doubters, but I'm starting to doubt that there are that many Rodgers doubters left.

Frankly, I love them both and will continue rooting for Favre 14 games in '10. I think they're too close to call who is better. That would be like asking me who is hotter, Monica Bellucci or Salma Hayek.

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over

packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor

Mucky Tundra (29-Dec) : Colts-Giants now a tight one
