Yep. I remember Favre saying in an interview once that he never liked to hit 400 yards in a game, because every time he did, the Packers seemed to lose. It was the same season as the 399-yard Raider game.

In my opinion, it's not a necessarily a good sign when your QB is throwing for 5,000 yards in a season. It means, at the very least, you have no running game, and it probably indicates a lot of desperation drives toward the ends of games. I would far rather have my QB toss for 3.000 yards or so and my running game net 2,000 yards, because then you know you're KILLING motherfuckers.

I was wrong. The Dolphins finished 14 - 2 in '84.

And I think Favre only threw for 400+ once and it was a loss. He threw for 399 against the Raiders and won.


the point of all this is I think you're analysis is way off. If Rodgers throws for 5,000 I am willing to bet we make the playoffs and its a good thing. Throwing for 400 yards is a good thing too.


More awards would be better ....

Tell you what - Ill take a season exactly like last year - cept for one thing

we total revamp our defense, lets start with firing most of the guys that lead it
next lets install a 3-4 where it stops the run and makes us appear unpredictable
then lets invest our main draft picks on the defense especially the Dline and linebacker core

oh wait ... we did that didn't we

HELLLOOOOOO 2009 packers

I won't complain about 51 TDs 😛

Wow. And I thought I masturbate with stats too much.

Back to the topic, glad to see James Jones is starting to get some love around here. I still think Jones will be the guy who eventually replaces Driver. Hoping he's 100% in '09. He'll prove me right. :thumbright:
