I just couldn't take my green and gold glasses off last fall .

Predicted 16-0. 😎😎😎😎😎

Wouldn't trade this 10-6 for anything.

Just think The Packers are better prepared going into the post season , batattleing through all the injuries and playing many tight football games.

Plenty of valuable playing time for the young guys.

I realize you're just focused on 6 in a row but you have to realize we beat a bunch of really bad teams and had trouble with some of them? It's a joke we needed a 60 yard bomb in the final seconds to beat Chicago. Their O just pummeled our D. Chicago is among the dregs of the NFL and they shredded our D. We're lucky we got Stafford with his bad finger or I imagine the game at Detroit is probably a lot different.

D is still as awful as ever. Wrong to expect more? I sure think it's wrong being content with what we've seen since 2010. Hasn't been good enough.

New England got the gift of Brady and has parlayed that gift into multiple championships. We get the gift of Rodgers (Brady's equal or superior) and we get one measly appearance and have the defense we have? Who are our stars? Rodgers, an aging Nelson and Matthews? Who else? Our cupboard is pretty bare. Our OL is a great pass blocking line. Not so much in run game.

It's like watching a specific athlete that is so gifted do so little with his career. Who would praise an athlete that had so much potential and so so little with it? Those guys are known as would shoulda couldas ...that is what this Packers team has been for many many years. An underachieving failed group of guys.

Regardless, you're unreasonable in your demands of the team. You think this is Madden where you can just create all your players with 99 rating and hold the ball for 55 minutes a game and shut every team out while never failing to convert for a first down. I think you got some great outside the box thoughts, but I'm honestly convinced you don't really understand how difficult the game of football truly is. I don't mean that in a negative way, I'm sure there a billion things I'm vastly ignorant on that you are brilliant on. It just when we talk football, you seem unaware of the game itself.

Regardless of my ignorant opinion of your football acumen, you're still fun to debate with at times. Don't doubt that.

We have the distinct advantage over all other teams in the NFL of having the most naturally gifted thrower of the football this game has ever seen. We play in a putrid division. Our D has been horrible for YEARS. Our GM can't fix it...our DC is dreadful yet we stick with the same GM and DC combo that produces this slop we see on defense year after year because it worked...ONCE when we had Woodson as a FA playing MVP type football.

I get the game just fine. It is NOT hard to win your division in a weak one when you have one of the best QB's this game has ever seen. It's an expectation and a right one. See Peyton in Indy all those years. We had a D around Aaron ONCE and what happened? Oh, yeah, that. We have NOT had a D around him since. What has happened? Oh, yeah, that. It isn't hard ...the game isn't some mystery. We have NOT been good enough and it's EASY to see. It's not like we've had a D and just had some bad playoff luck. We've had a BAD defense and haven't had a game changing WR or really a stud RB. It's all on Rodgers all the time. When he's great we're pretty good, when he ain't, well... I offer 4-6 and most of last year.

Apples and oranges. Brees is in a division with MVP Cam Newton and MVP candidate Matt Ryan, and now Jameis and the Bucs are there, too.
