Then we must have gone 4-0 when we went to the Super Bowl against Denver. I remember very vividly after the Packers won the final preseason game in 1999, Wayne Larrivee pointing out that the last time the Packers had gone 4-0 in the preseason, they'd gone to the Super Bowl, so perhaps this was a good omen. Of course, it was not to be.

I tried to verify this on NFL.com, but they don't maintain preseason statistics prior to 1999.

If our starters looked awful, and we were 3-0 in the preseason, THEN i would worry. But they look great!
I think this will only be good. It brings up the team's confidence.

And here's another thing. All the preseason crap we were hearing about Kampman being mad about being moved to LB. You don't think that scoring his first TD as a pro has helped to make his position move alot better for him? I bet IF he was mad about the move, getting a taste of what he might be able to do in the regular season HAS to have him fired up now! Don't you all agree? I think he looked VERY happy! And Kevin Greene.......did you see how much emotion he showed when Kampman scored? Thats the kind of fire i want to see in our team! That seemed to be missing last year.
And these are games that "don't count", and yet our guys are out there giving 100%! How can that be bad? It shows that they want to win EVERY time they are on the field!
It has me VERY excited about the upcoming season!

I'd much rather be 3-0 in the pre-season than 0-3, if the latter was the case people would be talking about another 6-10 season and how much they hate Ted Thompson.

I agree - people are talking about our domination this preseason rather then having Ted Thompson or Mike McCarthy head on a platter or about how our 1's suck.

If this means anything before the cards game the pack the odds for winning the SB were 1-34 now we are 1-26.

One of the announcers said he was talking to Woodson before the game and Woodson told him that the previous week he and Al wanted to stay in the game because they were HAVING FUN

Not sure if they could have said that last year

I'm not sure if anyone has posted this yet but this isn't just some normal preseason for the packers.

Over the off season the packers changed to the 3-4. We all know that it could take sometime. And from what i have seen this preseason the defense looks to be learning it quiet well. So this preseason was a great scale to let everyone know where the defense stands.

Some other notes we got too see this preseason that were question marks in the off season:

- A healthy packer team.

- The running game.

- O-line and D-line

- Rodgers second year as a starter.


I believe its not that the packers are playing too well. We are just seeing how good they can really be when healthy.

Zero2Cool (41m) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (41m) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (1h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (1h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (1h) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (1h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (1h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (1h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (1h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (1h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (1h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
beast (1h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
beast (1h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (2h) : I literally just said it.
packerfanoutwest (2h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
Zero2Cool (2h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
Zero2Cool (2h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.
packerfanoutwest (2h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
Zero2Cool (2h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.
packerfanoutwest (2h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in
packerfanoutwest (2h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker
packerfanoutwest (2h) : if bucs win out they win their division

buckeyepackfan (6h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.
Mucky Tundra (15h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan

bboystyle (16h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Or ties, but let's be real here
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)
Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.
beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs
packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.
