The Wolf/Holmgren Packers had a lights defense that I've been waiting patient to return - Favre just had to not turn the ball over for that team to win. The Sherman Packers had a prolific offensive line and an all out offensive attack with Ahman Green, plus the Favre aerial attack - but lots of turnovers.

The 🇹🇹 /🇲🇲 /🇦🇷 Packers have a very efficient offense, and a sieve for a defense. I'll take the Wolf/Holmgren Packers for now, but I keep praying for defensive improvement.

My biggest disappointment was the Sherman years because having Ahman Green and Brett Favre in their prime, and not even making it to the NFC championship game was horribly unacceptable.

Oh well.

Just a hunch. He fits a 3-4 DE perfectly, just what we need. And Trgo was his line coach and DC while in CAR. He knows him well. 7.5 sacks last season and 2 FFs.

That's one piece of the puzzle I would like to see here in GB, even at 34 years old. The guy can still play.

play2win: Nice call here. I've given you a lot of crap for wanting to sign/trade/etc for players that I thought was unrealistic. You nailed this one.

I've had enough. The vast majority of posters on here the last 72 hours have whined non stop about the actions of a team that has won the Super Bowl in the last few years, has been a consistent playoff team and has a MVP in his prime. You're frustrated that the Packers aren't doing what you think is necessary to get from being really good to World Champions. Like any of us know squat.

But the part that really annoys me is that some of you appear willing to sell out the future of the team for slightly improving the odds that the Packers win the Super Bowl. YOU WHINE LIKE 7 YR OLD GIRLS WHEN WE LOSE CLOSE PLAYOFF GAMES. THE THOUGHT THAT YOU WOULD BE OK WITH A 3-13 SEASON IS LAUGHABLE.

Either you all have only been fans for a few years or you have forgotten what the other side feels like. Rejoice because this is the 2nd greatest era of Packer football and it won't last. Then you'll really have something to complain about!

Wow... I'm was wrong about this.

Packers are bringing in guys that can move for sure, my prediction is this defense will be very very aggressive style unlike the last two years where they went to a move conservative style.

There was the rumor the Packers were going to build the defense in Capers image (or whatever the wording of that was...) well normally Capers defenses are more aggressive so we're getting back to the stuff Capers is more used to doing which is a great thing!

My guess is we're going to see the defense be asked to attack a lot more than react. So many things they could do with this line-up they basically could do almost any front now.

5-2, 4-3, 3-4, 2-4 nickel, 1-5 psycho package.... it's crazy...

OMG did I just go there... I hate those commercials!

Since this actually happened, I want Ted to go after Jared Allen too.

Just to be a dick.

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
