On THIS planet there isn't a single team that wins the Superbowl every year.

Patriots, Seahawks, Packers have approximately the same odds of winning it this coming year. 10-20% is the best chance any team has to do it. That means there is an 80-90% chance they WON'T win the superbowl.

So anyone can troll any fan forum with [fill in the (____) as applicable]

"(Belichick) SUCKS! (Tom Brady) is the BEST (QB) to ever play the position! Yet only ONE superbowl championship in the last (ten) years! Wow, just wow. I guess we are supposed to be happy with division championships. It's already April 3 and we don't know who our starting (CB) is yet. He let (Revis) go and doesn't have another starter in place already. Wait and see, this will be another year of make the playoffs and see what happens. Another wasted year. You koolaid drinking morons just can't see it."

It doesn't have to make any sense. The beauty of it is there is at least an 80-90% chance you will be "proven" right at the end of the year. "Yet another year without a superbowl win. See, that (Belichick) really does suck. He should fire his head coach." :cussing:

Those ORGANIZATIONS have won more championships. Better TEAMS. Who builds TEAMS? That is the GM. We have less championships so our guy isn't as good, or do you dispute that logic? It gets compounded by the fact that Aaron Rodgers is light years better than Ben Roethlisberger and Eli Manning but Ben and Eli's TEAMS have MORE championships. How is that possible? Ask TT. He has FAILED. Imagine what Pittsburgh or NYG would do if they had Aaron Rodgers... they won with much lesser QB's.

I'm not sure why reality is such a hard concept for so many. There is NOTHING to refute the above. Nothing.

I think overall your point has some validity. However, I think if the Packers win another Super Bowl in the next season or two than most of the questions will be answered. I think the Packers have as good as chance as any to be in the Super Bowl next season so long as they have a good draft, stay healthy, and a few players continue to develop. Those are very reasonable "if's."

But to the point, I still say the Packers superstar and potentially "best ever" quarterback Aaron Rodgers has to play better in the playoffs, 2010 notwithstanding. Same with some other big-time players. The coaching also needs to be better, AND more talent never hurts. But as far as I'm concerned, the talent was obviously there last season. There's no reason the Packers shouldn't have at least been playing in the Super Bowl yesterday with the team that Ted Thompson assembled. I put that failure more on the coaching and players. There's plenty of equal opportunity blame to go around.

Each of those teams have a few players that are better than our, and they also all have players that are worse than other of our players. Winning a SB doesn't mean they were the better team. Our SB winning season was one that because of injury was one of our weakest teams, but circumstances worked out for us.

You are so right with your analysis.

Not always does the best team win The SB.

That's why Ted keeping The Packers relevant year in and year out is so important.

Even when they are not considered the best team.
They always have that chance to win it all!

Go back and check, I think you will find that it's probably about a 50/50 split.
Where the favored team wins The SB.

Pretty sure Seattle was favored over New England last year.

Seriously,
What point are you trying to make?

Both teams were favored within 48 hours of the game.

I would think someone as intelligent as you would know the line changes depending on where the money is going.

That's all you got?

Is it that hard to focus on the topic of this thread ?
Your supposed to say how much you love Ted Thompson. How you praise him at every opportunity. That you love every decision he makes. That you send him Christmas Cards. That you worship the ground that he walks upon.

Get with it Guys, Suck UP !! :joker:

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
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
