You guys can sugar coat the Bears defense all you want to. 27 points and we took our foot off their neck with our play calling decisions. What pisses me off is the pass by the media for Urlacher and Briggs coming out and declaring they were the best team in the NFC. That's bullshit.

We do not get the respect we deserve, whether we want it or not.

I think the Packers get plenty of respect. They just don't get as much press as they would if they were in a larger market or if they had more of a soap opera atmosphere, as some other teams do. I don't have any complaints at this point.

Yeah, they get quite a bit of praise, especially on NFL Network. We have been the #1 team in the power rankings all season and many view Rodgers as a top 2 or 3 QB in the NFL. Capers gets mad respect and we are viewed as having the most talented offense in the league as well as insane depth. Ted Thompson is viewed as one of the best GMs. Our backup QB has often been viewed and likely still will be as a potential future starter. We overcame massive injuries last season and still won the super bowl, a story that is discussed over and over. The only member of the Green Bay Packers don't doesn't get enough media love in Mike McCarthy, and even that's quickly changing.

No press confernces about beating down the Bears. No expert analysis of why we will continue to crush them.

I wouldn't have it any other way.

Thompson builds the team with smart solid and not very exciting moves. Drafting talent and taking overlooked talent wherever he can find it.

The players all say the sanitized and correct thing.

Even the Coach is a mumbly, boring, dull guy at the podium with nothing but stock phrases.

The most animated Mike McCarthy got was when someone asked him about going into New England as an underdog. He kind of bristled and showed his teeth a little when he said "We're nobody's underdog" and it was over. No rants, no tirade. Just a simple statement of fact.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

I think you are mixing together two different things: respect and attention. The Packers get tons of respect. They get a little shortchanged on attention because they play in a small market, and they don't have a lot of drama. That's just the way things are, and I'm fine with it. The last time they got more than their share of attention was in the summer of 2008 when Favre tried to come back to the team. I didn't enjoy that at all.

I really don't get the "not enough attention" argument. I mostly watch NFL Network, and they get plenty of positive attention. No, we don't get the negative attention that many teams like Dallas and the Jets do, and that's great. It is what it is, negative publicity. I've thought several times while hearing people praise the packers how sick other teams must get of hearing about us.

It's all good to me.

Actually, I wish we'd get a lot less respect. I didn't even hit Vegas this year because our odds sucked. It wouldn't even be worth the trip.

Mucky Tundra (9h) : *winning MVP
Mucky Tundra (10h) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning
Zero2Cool (15h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (15h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (15h) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (15h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (15h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.
packerfanoutwest (15h) : it was always after the SB.....
beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago
beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
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?
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
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
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (10-Feb) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : This might be the kill shot here
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Philly DL has come to play
