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 (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal
