its easy...look for strength of schedule for 2009 and you'll see how far low the packers opponents are and how their schedule is ranked this year...I believe the teams we face this year have a combined win record of 109 or so...Sure some teams on there look tough and will be tough but basing off of last year,our schedule is pretty weak...here's a link...

as u can see,GB,minny,and CHI all has the weakest schedule this year making this a 3 way dog fight for the division..Of course i personally dont believe in this crap cuz anything can happen in the NFL...But to rule it out isnt something good either as the last time we had a weak schedule lke this,we went 13-3....

Thats because the Packers, Vikings, and Bears play an 0-16 team twice a year.

Heh, bboystyle, did you stop reading my post at the point where you stopped quoting it? 😛

no,but even if we gave them 5 or less wins from last year,our schedule still is at the bottom of the barrell...

I appreciate your honesty! +1

of course once we start winning (notice i didn't say "if") all the pundits will start conversely saying "well, it's because of their easy schedule" hahaha.

I buy very little in the easiest schedule type talk when basing it upon a year or years past.. with the way players move around with Free Agency and the rapid impacts rookies have on the game today (good and bad)... I think this new brand of football makes that schedule talk weak in nature.

Just look at the up and down nature of Superbowl losers and teams running up to the big game.. they fall off quickly. Look no further than the 07 and 08 Packers.. we made a ton of peoples schedule look tough on paper..

Get half way through this season and project that out through the end.. holds more weight.

I think there could be a "Favre Jinx" factor. That kind of scares me, but Capers will definitely have something for Favre. And I think he's a marked man. We'll win at LEAST 10 games this year. MARK IT DOWN!
