I think after the draft I'd tack on two wins to my overall prediction.

I think 10-6 is a safe conservative prediction. Rodgers puts up pro bowl numbers again. Greg Jennings more than earns his payday. Running back competition instead of force feeding grant produces reliable run game. Defense has its learning curve struggles, but I think we find the mean streak I've been looking for for years. We become a team that gets the lead early then puts the opposition in the sleeper hold. No more need for last second come-backs every damn week. Clearly I believe that the defensive change not only improves the scheme, but more importantly the attitude.

Well, given the EXCELLENT draft, the jelling of the Oline, and the return of a healthy Clifton and Tauscher, Add to that one of the easier schedules in the NFL, Packers win the first 16 games...

the second half of this prediction to come later...

As much as I'd love a 16-0 season, what I'd love even more is a SB win, even if it means going 9-7 and barely sneaking in the Playoffs.

Well, since you already posted the 2nd half of my prediction, i have to accuse you of being in my head, a mindreader, a psychic.

Ok, enough. I'm going off to sleep.

To me, the schedule would seem to be in our favor very well. There's not one game of the first 8 we SHOULD lose. The only three that should be close are the Bears, and Vikings twice. We should handle the Bengals, Rams, Lions, Browns, and Bucs...And we should probably take both home games with the Bears and Vikes to put us at 7-1.

Or maybe my expectations are too high?

You can never go too high.

This seasons NFC North will be a bloody battle to the last I'll say that..... with the Pack coming out of top of course.

As long as this team stays healthy we shouldn't even have any major problems against the bears.

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

This is pretty much what I was/am expecting. Feasting on pretty bad and/or rebuilding teams and splitting the Bears and Vikings games again. 7-1 over the first half of the season looks fairly realistic.

The real problems come after that, though. Cowboys, Ravens, Steelers and the Cardinals at full strength. Although winnable, especially the Ravens and Steelers game will be really, really hard.

if we play like we've been playing i can't see us losing a goddamn single game!

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

beast (30m) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (16h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (17h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.
