In short, the Packers not only draft well, they simply don't lose ascending core players on second contracts. The more they win, the harder it is for those players to believe they're better off elsewhere — even for more money — and the cycle continues.

Bulaga is a star?

Build that D, genius...You've had 10 years and 10 of 12 1st round defensive players. Fix those ST's while you're at it, also. You've had a decade.

One SB appearance in a decade behind possibly the greatest QB to ever play for most of it and another HOF before that? Genius, again.

This conversation has been had over and over and over and over. Nobody seems to have a single problem with it until I post my counter opinion then it's me who is the broken record.

The weird thing, to me, and I guess it's a good thing is that Aaron Rodgers is by far the best thing this org has going for it but we don't quite see the gushing over his greatness that we do over TT, here. Shoot, Favre love dominated Packers boards. It was so sickening to read over and over and over.

I just don't understand why our GM gets all this cult like love he receives? It is truly bizarre especially in light of the fact that Rodgers gets little in comparison.

Maybe that info can be found somewhere.

The article is spot on, players enjoy playing in a Green Bay, young guys go there knowing they will get a legitimate shot at showing they can play the game.

Veterans want to stay.

I enjoy the fact that EVERY season there is talk of championships from day one.

I guess I've learned to enjoy the game and let all the other stuff up to Ted and the coaches.

Other than the fact that The Packers passed on Barry Sanders years ago, the mistakes haven't been to bad.
That was long before Ted came along.

I'm not sure we've resigned all that many "stars"...that's pushing it. No team in the NFL isn't going to sign their superstar franchise QB to an extension.
