I have no problem with optimism; I just find reporters' lack of conviction or backbone annoying. They're so shortsighted. They simply go along with whatever their most recent impression is, without giving much stock to long-term trends. I personally don't think the Packers are quite as good as some of those writers think, and I certainly don't think they're as bad as Kirwan thinks.

Oh, and don't forget...the Lions went 4-0 in the preseason last year. :microwave:

Media hacks are pathological bandwagon jumpers. The moment the Packers have a mediocre performance or suffer a loss, they'll be predicting doom and gloom with the same alacrity they now proclaim them a juggernaut.

I could see Green Bay losing to Chicago in week one and still coming away with a successful season and maybe even better than the Bears. Of course if they do lose, Packer fans will have to read all the preseason means nothing comments from the media. It's always a what have you done lately type of attitude with people.

We will not lose to the Bears. They don't have the pass defense to stay with our guys. Won't happen. Rodgers will light those guys up.

No replacement of quality for Brown, no safeties, and marginal cover CB's.

I sense another " these guys don't belong on the same field as us" statement made.

I think we are going to seriously kick their tails.

Don Banks is obsessed with the Packers. Check out today's article predicting each division:

NFC North

First place: Green Bay (12-4) -- I've got a feeling about these Packers, especially when I survey the rest of a wide-open NFC field and try to divine if there's an out-of-nowhere team with a legitimate shot to represent the conference in Miami next February. Green Bay is my NFC Super Bowl pick, and last year's dismal 6-10 finish is but a memory now that Aaron Rodgers looks like a man playing possessed and the Packers' new-look 3-4 defense appears ready to work as planned from day one.

You beat me to posting that. :icon_smile: It is exciting to read all these positive predictions, but I'm trying not to get too big headed about it. I want to see our defense kick ass in real games first. I do agree with warhawk though and feel we will handily beat the Bears. I can't believe Peter King picked them to win the NFC out of all teams in the conference.

Don Banks moved to Wisconsin earlier this year, and now he's predicting the Packers to go to the Super Bowl. Coincidence?

OMFGCONSPARASEE!!!

no really though. i'm excited as hell for this first game and i'm glad it's against a (supposedly) good team and an old classic rivalry game at that. i think if we dominate this Bears game, people will finally stfu about their "it's just preseason" attitude and just silently watch as the Pack shows up the world. at least, i fecking hope. two reasons why i fecking hope:

1) i want the Pack to go all the way, duh.

2) i'm meeting my gf's family for the first time next sunday and don't want to be jumping, shouting and cursing at the tv. bad first impression. i've already given the gf permission to slap me or throw water in my face in such a scenario.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

I have 3 things to say:

#1 I want the pack to crush the bears
#2 yes I want the pack at the big game
#3 I would rather not so many peeps get all hyper about the pack cuz the bookies odds wont jump as much then.

So lets win alot of games and then kind of sneak into the superbowl and take the prize home 😉

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
