GREEN BAY PACKERS

Home: Chicago, Detroit, Minnesota, Dallas, N.Y. Giants, Buffalo, Miami, San Francisco

Away: Chicago, Detroit, Minnesota, Philadelphia, Washington, New England, N.Y. Jets, Atlanta

At first glance, it looks like a tough season, though you never know who can improve/regress in the off-season.

Ok, back to concentrating on the playoffs,

Ouch, that looks tough... but like you said you never know how a team is going to change from one season to another.

---

Dallas comes to our house again. Excellent.

---

Damn we get New England away, that will be tough

Maybe, maybe not. New England barely squeaked by Buffalo, lost to the Jets, lost to Denver, lost to Miami, and lost to Houston. They ended up with a worse record than Green Bay. You never can tell how strong a team will be from year to year or at any given point in a season.

lol ya but how many draft picks they got this next year? ...

They won't be able to sign nearly all of them without slaughtering their current roster. The vast majority of those players will be hitting the streets by the end of camp.

---

Looks like a 16-0 season to me!

Several of the games that in the preseason, people on this board were pointing to as virtually guaranteed losses turned out to be wins. Others predicted to be blowouts turned out to be humiliating defeats. It's impossible to judge record difficulty at this point.

No doubt.

I ended up with about the right number but no where close to how we got there. I did feel like we would beat Dallas at home but did not see a Vikes sweep or losses to the Bengals and Bucs.

You have to feel good about the defense going into it's second year and the only if is getting the 0line straight right out of the blocks. We do that and it will be the other guys not wanting to see us on their schedule.

It's really about catching teams when they are hot or not. Several teams next year will string wins together but also go into a funk at times as well. Just like this year when it would have been great to catch the Bengals in the last part of the season and we caught Pittsburgh just when they woke up. On the other hand Dallas was not playing like they are right now either.

It's also got a lot to do with timing and when you catch a team that has to win and when you might play a team in a trap position. I also remember '05 when, as miserable as it was, we played like five or six teams that had to use backup QB's due to injury. Not that it made a difference because our run defense was horrendous.

But the timing of key injuries is always a factor you just can't predict.

LOT's of things unknown at this time will be factors in what happens.

Want Miami here for last game of the year and Dallas 2nd to last

Very true

I used to think that if a team had great personnel then they'd always be competetive until significant roster shifts, especially if they have been a unit for a few years.

Steelers taught me a thing or two this season.

I'd also like to see Minnesota here near the end of the season. Especially if Favre is still there. We got robbed this year IMHO.

---

We didn't get robbed, we were outclassed and outcoached for both of those games. We also gave up crucial opportunities on both sides of the ball (see Lee dropping an endzone pass or Favor having 22 seconds to throw)

Hopefully we can rectify it by whooping them twice next year and in the playoffs (if it happens that way) this year.

---

I felt "robbed" in that the Favres didn't have to come to Lambeau in December.

---

Damn the NFC East...
