From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
Remember all those debates we’ve had in the past over player grades and how certain site’s grades don't correlate to the individual fan’s eye test? Well, keep this in mind next time it comes up:
Palmy - "Very few have the ability to truly excel regardless of system. For many the system is the difference between being just a guy or an NFL starter. Fact is, everyone is talented at this level."
Micah Hyde out for the season with a neck injury. Hope it isn't too bad.

15 days ago if I suggested the loan remaining undefeated teams were Miami, New York Giants, and Philadelphia, what would you have said?
Philly was a pre-season dark horse pick by a lot of experts that I simply did not understand and still don't. What about them is good? I think Hurts is a winner but that's about it.
In addition to their own selections, the undefeated Eagles and Dolphins would also currently be picking at #7 and #8 respectively in round one of the 2023 NFL draft as a result of trades they with New Orleans and San Francisco.

Little early for me to say anything about Philly yet.
They squeak a win against DET, beat MN where they caught Cousins on a bad day and then beat up one of the worst teams in football.
They are likely a team to contend against, but this early in the season allows for a lot of deviations from the mean.

They've dominated in the first half and then done nothing in the second in most of their games. I don't know what that says, really, but it's interesting.
Their halftime scores have been 24-14, 24-7, and 24-0
Their second half scores have been 14-21, 0-0, and 0-8
Also, just to pick a nit, I didn't see it as they "caught Kirk Cousins on a bad day" as much as they pressured Kirk Cousins into a bad day.

Yeah, it just seemed like there were too many experts picking them as NFC Championship favorites, before the season. Based on (from what I see) nothing. AJ Brown is overrated. Hurts can't throw (but he is definitely a winner). Maybe their coach is a superstar but idk. Is their defense secretly elite like they were in 2017?
