No matter who we beat this year, how many of us really felt confident in this year's team, especially with the duct tape and paperclip defense we had on the field? I don't see this roster as a top 5 talent. I'm even optimistic that Randall and Rollins had a soph slump due to injury and will return to 2015 form, but still see a tremendous amount of holes at LB/pass rush and we don't know yet along both lines.

I believe the team can contend next year, just not sure of the justification for the optimism as of this moment.

I'm not optimistic, but this team still made it to the NFC championship game with all the glaring weaknesses they had. I'll believe the D is better when I see it. If it is, well... Chances are we'll be back in this game with a chance to not blow it this time.

We're always going to be legit with Aaron playing out of his mind. We're a 4-6 type team when he doesn't.

Yes. Aaron just needs a little help. He's good enough to do the rest. Put a hill on his back and not Mt. Everest and it'll be very different. Signing a former underachiever in Jared Cook made a huge difference to Aaron. That took nothing to accomplish. Just the realization that your 3rd round TE wasn't ever going to be good enough. See it? Give Aaron RR at TE and it's hard to succeed because he sucks. Give him just a decent talent in Cook and... Magic. Do that upgrade in a few more areas and it'll change everything. Not some illogical inconsistent ramblings of a mad fan. Just the truth. Aaron is asking for what I've been asking for. Is that not true? Most of you haven't asked and don't even think to. Contentment leads to not winning.

What NFL executives said:

"I would imagine [general manager] Ted Thompson will be a little more aggressive in free agency. Ted disdains using free agency and loves to build through the draft and undrafted players. But you can sense a lot of people are getting in his ear and suggesting filling some of the holes by signing a few extra veterans."

Why is this any different than 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, or 2016?

And which NFL executives are silly enough to suggest that Ted Thompson is going to admit his approach has been wrong all along regarding his disdain for free agency and suddenly sign players from other teams?

If we dont get some SERIOUS help on defense, we won't win anything, except maybe another north division title.
Ted needs to get off the crapper and DO something.

Seriously, dude, take an Ativan and chill. No, make that a whole bottle of Ativan -- preferably washed down with a fifth of tequila or whiskey. You're way overdue for your winter hibernation.

I don't care if all the executives in the NFL vote that we will win the next Super Bowl. It means NOTHING.

That, and a dollar will buy you a cup of coffee at McDonald's.
If the Packers don't make some serious off season moves, they will end up on the short end....again.

I get called a troll,

Take a good look.

Who is The Only member creating threads?
I guess you can't hijack the threads you start.

Sooner or later every thread is spun to the old TED THOMPSON SUCKS bullshit.

Tell me I 'm wrong!

A real shame what this forum has become after all the work and effort so many put in!

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

This is the off-season, Buck. Ted is our QB for the next few months. He should be the focal point of discussion like it or not.

You're criticizing me for creating threads that help keep discussion going? You must hate mintbacondrivel as that is what he does here. How terrible!

Am I wrong to think that if it was "Ted is great" you would have no issue?

Why don't you just give your football opinions and get off the uffda attack train? Not too much to ask.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."
