MM puts alot of emphasis on "stacking successes."

R.P love the postitve attitude, how about we talk about this Packer team winning a play-off game, then going on to a second play-off game, then hopefully a third play-off game.

After they accomplish this, then we can turn our talk to A Superbowl game.

I think everyone is getting hung up on three-peat talk when the interesting question is will Ted Thompson change his strategy of building a team if the Packers win a Super Bowl?

I can't imagine he would. He just seems too ingrained in how he operates a football team (and he's been pretty successful at it as well). I have a hard time seeing him overpaying for one free agent to keep the team at a Super Bowl level (if they get there).

Ahhhhh thanks man!

I feel that there will be some players that will have the SB Hangover, as that is something that I don't think any team can really avoid. If any team has done the job of avoiding it however, it is the Patriots. I feel that Mike McCarthy has a lot in common with Belichick. They both don't dwell on the negatives. They both keep a very stern outlook no matter what happens in the game, they both are "unflappable". Most importantly though, they are both extremely respected by their players. I have confidence that if we win the SB, Mike McCarthy will do a great job of keeping their heads at the proper size and to keep their eye on the prize for the next season.

With as much conviction as I have about Mike McCarthy being a coach that can keep his guys in line, I have even more conviction about Ted. The guy's a robot. I honestly don't think that he will have ANY changes in his schema. He will continue to build depth where we need it, and presumably will not even break a smile when we win. Because robots don't show emotion.

Great points raised, especially from blueleopard about team cancers.

The Pats, Colts, and Steelers are the 3 teams that come to mind that had as realistic a chance as anyone at repeating the last 5-10 years. In the case of Pitt and NE, they've had very hard nosed no nonsence coaches that don't let their team skip a beat.

With NE and Ind, they have extremely driven QBs, and with Pitt they have Troy P who also do not let their teammates slip.

So IMO 2 big ingredients in the are leadership through the coach and arguably just as importantly, 1 player on the field. Consequently, I think the answer to RP's question lies in Rodgers' hands.
