How did those upgrades work for Denver last year? The Packers were 3 minutes from the SB last year, and with the exception of the unknown at cb, have retained all the key pieces of that roster.

When did Ted pick up peppers, guion, linsley, adams, haha, or r.rodgers who all made appreciable contributions to last year's team?

The seahawks just dropped a starting C and a 1st round pick for a TE who can't block on a run-first team and you're anointing them NFC champs already?

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

Am I the only one who thinks Richard Rodgers can be a star in this league?

I'm not saying it couldn't help their team, maybe it'll be huge for them, I don't know. However, as I said in my post, the Packers added about 6 significant difference makers after the first week of the 2014 free agency season which helped carry them to within 3 minutes of the Super Bowl. This is 1 move by the Saints and we have no idea who the Packers will add the next few months. No need to crown anyone yet. Hell, the Packers and Seahawks looked like they wouldn't meet in the 2014 NFCCG at points during the season last year.

I wonder how many people realize that Unger was hurt and only played in 6 games last year. So the replacement was there for the Seahawks so basically they gave up the #31 pick for a Pro Bowl TE.

I would make that trade every time.

Super Bowl teams upgrade their teams by addition not by staying stagment.

You do realize Cobb is the #1 rated wr free agent right?

Ok Ted Thompson you stick to signing your guys lol, thats the reason we will always be a team that might make the playoffs but won't do much after. This puts the Seahawks back to the NFC top team. I think we will stay a top 4 team in the NFC but not the top 2.


Seahawks and Cowboys then us and Arizona

So lets take a look so far

The 2 time NFC Champs
Lose a CB
Lose a Center that missed 10 games last year


They sign an above average CB from Philly
And bring in a top 2 TE to help their offense.

The Packers
Resign Cobb
Resign the whale
Resign a backup lineman in Barclay

Lose 2 NT
Lose 2 ILB
Lose 2 CBs


Hmmm your right the Packers have the best of it so far lol

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)
Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.
beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)
Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.
Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”
packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie
Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b
Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with
packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie
beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.
Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now
beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!
