I don't understand why it is so important to people that the media picks the Packers to win the division. If the Packers win games, they will get all the "love" they want.

because it's exciting that the fever is catching. i for one am not one of those people who enjoys constantly being ignored by the outside world, especially given that i don't live in WI anymore (nor will i ever again).

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

The Packers have a rising star in Aaron Rodgers, and their new 3-4 defense looks as if it will bring improvement.
Prediction: 10-6, first in NFC North

Steve Wyche
Transition to 3-4 won't prompt a step backward. Aaron Rodgers and depth make Packers team to beat in the division.
Prediction: 11-5, first in NFC North.

Pat Kirwan
Playing more zone will help a team that was predictable in man coverages. Rodgers is on the verge of being a top 10 quarterback. If the running game gets going, eight wins is too low.
Prediction: 8-8, third in NFC North

Bucky Brooks
The Packers fly under the radar to finish with the league's best record behind an explosive offense and a suffocating defense.
Prediction: 12-4, first in NFC North

Jason La Canfora
The Packers have made the move to a 3-4 scheme look easy this preseason. Love the QB, and the offensive line should rebound.
Prediction: 11-5, first in NFC North

In addition to this they have Cullen Jenkins as #1 breakout player in the NFC North. I believe the 3-4 defense will increase the number of turnovers and make our defense one of the best....just my thoughts...

ya its funny before the cards game people were not talking so much about the pack. Now after the cards game - all these guys are coming out of the woodwork and even the betting agencies have changed their odds of the pack.

While most of us knew all along this offseason that the Pack would be BACK!

Kampman appears to be adjusting well to standing up at the line of scrimmage and occasionally dropping into coverage as opposed to lining up in a 4-3 defensive end's three-point stance.

"If we execute, we can be a very good defense," Kampman says. "It's a targeting issue for the offense. We can create an unpredictability just by scheme and alignment. We're a multiple-front look.

"We'll always be an unpredictable defense, and that's what we're after."

Is Kampman licking his chops, knowing how Miami's Jason Taylor emerged as the 2006 Defensive Player of the Year with 13 sacks after making the shift from defensive end to 3-4 outside linebacker in Capers' scheme?

"It could be great," Kampman says. "There could be some great opportunities.

"We have different ways to attack quarterbacks, so that presents some possibilities that I could have a great year."

I think it's funny to see how some players have bought into Ted Thompson's system of evasion and doublespeak. So many words to say so much nothing.
