Still better than last year, when we still had "THE GREAT ONE."

Remember the year before THAT? Aaron was given the keys to the car that year, and the freakin WHEELS CAME OFF. Aaron is a great player, but he's not the ONLY thing that keeps this team afloat.

This position is not new to us, in fact it is NORMAL.

What is this bizarre obsession with last season?

I'm worried for some of us once this becomes the norm when 12 is gone.

Being positive is a good trait. Being delusional is something entirely different.

Who could watch this game today and the last 4 and continue saying basically: nothing to see here... we're right where we are used to being? That's not positivity at all.

This Packers team is AWFUL minus 12. That's not news or unexpected.

Packers are a sub par organization propped up by one of the singular best players ever to walk on a football field.

This can't be good for 12s psyche seeing how awful this team is from his new perspective. If you were as great as he is and you saw how terrible the rest of this roster is, it would have to give you pause before signing an extension. I'd demand change, privately, and just play out the contract and pray I don't get franchised.

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."

Yeah, Nerd is nonsensical. 12 hasn't always played nearly as good as he could or should, but he is at least 80% of the reason the Packers have had any of the success they have had the past multiple years. Other factors still count, but he is the overwhelming reason. In fact, he literally overcomes other factors on this team that drag him down. Kind of like negative points in fantasy.

Although I must say, I think Hundley is just truly a horrible bust of a player. Any average at best QB should still be able to score a touchdown a game. Mike McCarthy has proved he can prepare players like Flynn to do decent. Mike McCarthy is an average coach at best, but still, Hundley is just horrible and he makes everyone else look worse around him. It's like a MASSIVE feat if he actually throws a touchdown. It shouldn't be that big of a deal. Time to move on. You can't tell me there wasn't a veteran QB out there somewhere that could have done more than this.

Yup. Case Keenum was out there but we had "our guy". This pigheadedness that our draftees are somehow special and we don't need any outsiders is cult-like self destruction.

If we had let's say Tony Romo or Sam Bradford, yeah, I get your thinking here and you sign a Case Keenump for couple million. When you have Aaron freaking Rodgers, who doesn't really miss many games you trust your system. If you don't trust your system, why the hell would the coaches or players?



As for our record being better in 2017 than 2016 ... poohey. The lack of consistency this team plays with, I wouldn't be surprised if we won out, or lost out. This team seems to make a really good play and then are content with said good play on tape and forget there are 3 more downs on the drive. Clinton-Dix shoving that guy out of bounds, you gotta be kidding me. Where's the self-discipline? The Dean Lowry penalty for hands to the face, that's forgivable. He was trying to knock the pass down.

Just too damn many mental errors by this team. Green Bay MM's ... Mental Midgets.

Yes...more of this. Our brass already experienced life without Rodgers. It's why they took Hundley in the draft. He was their fix. It's their job to know if he's a fix or not. They said he was...he isn't, so when the Vikes have 3 QBs they can win with and we have one, especially after the first time that is indicting.

What has to be happening here is that because this org has won a lot of games it must do things right and doesn't deserve scrutiny. It deserves a ton. It flushed this season down the toilet believing, wrongly, Hundley could win for them.

We get shutout at home and excuses and justifications are flying. Why is that? Look at what's happening in these 4 games. The past doesnt factor. This is a Trainwreck. 3 absolutely brutal games at home and excuses? What positive have you seen in 3 games at home? Team has been dismantled. Terrible coaching...worse performance. It's the truth. Run the numbers. Post up how we've done in our last 3 games at home. UGLY. Let's just call it like it is around here.
