Oh please drama queen, stop with all the torture!!!! Some of you actually are conceited enough to think you are better fans cause you keep a rah rah spirit? While some of us actually call for some accountability when the team is playing like dog shit, why are we wrong?

The fact is, this team is NEVER out. They don't even really start trying until they dig themselves a big enough hole.

Here's my current prediction: The Packers will get all jazzed up for this game and win it on a wave of emotion. Then they will come out the next week in the playoffs and humiliatingly shit themselves against an inferior team.

I've said it all along, we as fans have to let THE SEASON play out.

I remember when The Packers were sitting at 5-2, there was the discussion on whether The Packers could run the table and finish 14-2.

At the time, that was not so far-fetched.

Then we all know what happened, 4 qb's in 4 weeks.

Not to mention the plethera of injuries to the rest of the team.

All of a sudden The Packers suck, can't beat anyone, have no depth, coaches can't coach.
(next man up, no excuses) BULLSHIT!!!!!

Through it all, they did what they had to do.

Hasn't been pretty, but with a win on Sunday, they will have attained the 1st 2 goals of any team, 1. Make the playoffs 2. Make the playoffs as a division winner.

Just look at the 53 man roster the 1st week of the season and compare it to this weeks roster.

Been quite a few changes, although many fans gave up on The Packers and quit on them, The Coaches and Players thankfully did neither.

Bahktari, Barclay, Banjo, Hyde, Richardson, Boykin, Mulumba, Palmer, I'm sure I have missed some, these guys were NEVER suppose to play a big part in the 2013 plan.

Yet everyone of them have stepped up and have did their best.

The Packers pretty much hit bottom on Thanksgiving Day, "it was embarrassing", suddenly "it was time to throw in the towel", "the rest of the games were meaningless", "let's lose for a better draft pick in 2014".

Again thankfully The Players and Coaches disagreed(as did some on this forum who understand that a football season is a marathon not a sprint)

I don't know what's going to happen Sunday, win or lose, I truly believe this season has been a real challenge for
#1 The Coaches, who have had to juggle the lineups seemingly every week.
JMHO, but their job hasn't been easy this year and this fan thinks they have did a pretty damn good job with what they had to work with week after week.

#2 The Players, who could have thrown in the towel after week 9, laid down and just played out the season, but week after week, they played hard, showed heart, and in the end they are 1 win away from a Division title.

Call me Rah, Rah, or tell me to take off my green and gold colored glasses, Don't give a damn anymore, those of you who gave up on this team...SHAME ON ALL OF YOU!!!!

Those of you who have kept the faith, I hope we all can enjoy ONE MORE PACKER VICTORY this regular season.

It seems that some fans would rather see the Packers lose, because they feel that's the only way the changes they want to happen will happen.

You watch the Steelers game? Anything stick out that pissed you off? Sam Shields NOT on Antonio Brown every single play? That pissed me off.

This over complication of the defense of if this guy touches this blade of grass, then YOU cover him, but if he touches THIS blade of grass, he's mine. Too much thinking, not enough PLAYING. Dom Capers simplified the defense back in 2010. I would search for the quote, but don't have time. The defense performed a lot better and in fact the Packers were never more than 7 points down. That is incredible and I do not believe has ever been accomplished before or since.

Lattimore should be playing before Jones, and Raji and Pickett need a fire lit under their asses (pisses me off every down they dog). And let's not even get started on the safety play, cause that's a clusterfuck. But as bad as we are on defense, the Bears are even worse.

You or the Great Zero have no right challenging any of our loyalties to the Packers.

BTW, aren't I on your ignore, you big baby.

Ease up. We're supposed to be much more friendly towards one another. No reason for the hostility outside of the back alley. Keep it respectful.

Zero made alot of great points.
How many teams WISH they could consistantly at least make the playoffs, which gives you a CHANCE to play in the Super Bowl?
Think the LIONS and VIKINGS wish they were playing for a shot at the division championship this weekend?

As far as some thinking it means "nothing", to me, it means alot. Especially with the circumstances the Packers have played under this year. Losing so many of their key players, and especially Rodgers, and STILL having a shot at "the dance".
The Lions were healthy, and with alot of excellent players. Yet they are out of it already.
Think their fans arn't upset?
I really thought they had a realistic shot at making it far into the playoffs, and they imploded.

There is only ONE Super Bowl winner each year. And 31 dissapointed teams (and fans of those teams).
I have been fortunate in seeing my team go to 5 Super Bowls, and win 4 of them.
I take nothing for granted.

There's many more examples including The 2012, 15-1 Packers.

Why do you hear players say "we just need to make it to the dance"?

Because as been posted many times here..ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.

Let's hope The Packers win Sunday and we all get to find out.

dfosterf (15m) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (1h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (2h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (2h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (2h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (4h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (14h) : don't care

Zero2Cool (19h) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
