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.
I still feel Howie Roseman is what Brian Gutekunst would be if Brian just made the obvious pick in the first round.
100%. I have said time and time again I really don’t think it’s hard to win the SB. I just think most of these GMs are $%@# retarded. When you have top 5 and top 10 talents falling past those picks like DK, Jalen Carter, Kyle Hamilton, Christian Gonzalez, Jeffery Simmons. I mean the list goes on. And I have less time than these guys whose literal job is to scout players. So frustrating.
It's incredibly hard to win the SB lol.
What's so frustrating about Brian is he is lethal killer in every aspect of the GM job but inadequate in the one piece where idiots like you and me can do.
I actually strongly believe the Packers would be insanely good if we let Brian do everything except have Lupe get decision rights in Round 1.
Only requirement I have is you need to let me watch you in that room for your 3 hours of fame. Something tells me you and your mouth would glow in the power given to you.
L take as usual. I guess we shouldn’t try to add any offensive weapons. Common trend is the teams that win or even get to the Super Bowl are making additions to their offense because they aren’t satisfied with being stagnant during the season.
A true take. The L take is constantly bitching about adding talent when the Packers DID add talent, or did you forget about McKinney and Jacobs? Or are you saying Dotson was a better addition for Philly than McKinney or Jacobs? The Chiefs added Hopkins in a trade who has done virtually nothing down the stretch to help them. Contrary to the belief, the Eagles haven't added player through trade in years. The Packers need to hit on their draft picks. Simple as that.
Need to make in season additions. Every team does it that has been successful over the years. This year Dotson and Hopkins.
Last year Chiefs trade for Hardman… who makes a clutch play to win in the SB.
Prior year Chiefs trade for Toney… who makes a clutch play to score in the SB. The Eagles traded for AJ Brown during the draft recognizing they needed a weapon.
Prior to that Rams sign Odell Beckham before the playoffs who scores in the SB.
Prior to that Buccs sign AB who… wait for it… makes big plays in the SB and playoff run.
We are always last to adjust to the NFL trends. We use to miss out on the mercenary where you could get cheap 1 year deals on FAs looking to get in themselves to get a long term big deal. Right now we are the only team not adding playmakers to improve our playoff chances and it’s part of the reason we always fall short.
Brandon McManus for the Packers was a true in season addition.
Jahan Dotson was NOT an in season addition. He was added before the season in August. Even then he had 19 receptions for 218 yards during the season. He has 3 receptions for 44 yards in 4 playoff games with 1 TD.
Deandre Hopkins has 2 catches for 22 yards in the playoffs.
These guys are not examples of player additions that put their team over the top. The Eagles are NOT an example of a team adding players in season to put themselves over the top because they didn't do that. They buck your supposed trend. So no, we aren't the only team not adding playmakers. That's simply untrue.
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."
I also would rather have Lupe be Rd 1 over me because I would trade back every time.
Lupe would trade up just to give Brian less draft assets.
I would fire Gutenbumst, allow him to be hired by some other dumb team and then trade my 1st round pick to acquire Gutenbumst again just to fire his stupid ass twice.

You take any random event or observation and always manage to tie it to a perceived failure by the Packers front office.
You're exceedingly good at it, too. Never miss an opportunity.
Truth hurts. Wait I thought you sided with Jacobs? Which is it?
It’s just funny to me you’re touting the addition of marginally impactful trade deadline players who have barely registered on the stat sheet when this game was clearly won on both lines of scrimmage for the Eagles. And you’re pinning the failure of the Packers season on the GM not overpaying for his own marginally impactful trade deadline player.
Games are won and lost at the line of scrimmage. Packers offensive and defensive lines are inferior compared to the Tier 1 teams. Wait til the Ravens, Eagles, Redskins invade Lambeau in 2025.

The best thing about the halftime show was the 1980 Buick Grand National.
I noticed that too, even better, my son says, how many people can they fit in there LOL. It was all downhill after that.
I appreciated it wasn't all sex and skin, and the American flag was kind of neat, but I couldn't understand anything. I "think" they were trying to tell some story during the show, but I couldn't pick up enough to know.
Overall the game sucked as far as championship games go. I didn't watch it all, but when I did Philly's D was absolutely crushing them. Across the board whipped at every position on pretty much every play. It was as dominant of DL performance as any. Right up there with the likes of Seattle, recent 9ers, Tampa that one year.
I said at the start of the playoffs I thought this version of the Chiefs was on the last legs of their dynasty kind of like Lombardi's last Packer team. Unlike the Pack back then, the Chiefs got stomped. But like the Pats they've got a QB and given a few years to retool they might build it up again and have a another 5 year window.

Lol. Yeah I told my wife I'm too white to understand any of this.
I didn't know any songs the Falcons played while I was at the Packers Falcons game either but boy did every black person just LOVE that type of music. Frankly it was just cool and funny see them respond to something so positively that I didn't get at all.
If people like that kind of music good on them. But it didn't click with this small town South Dakota farm boy.

Next year we crush the Bills for the .
Yeah I told my wife too this just had the feel of the beginning of the end. I think the Broncos/Chargers take that division next year.
Frankly KC got farther this year than I ever dreamed they would.

Is our OL as suspect as you suggest? Ours is better than what we saw with KC last night. Our issue is at center and overall depth. It will be interesting to see if our DL improves with a different coach now. IMO the MVP of the SB was Philly's DL and not Hurts.

That halftime "entertainment" was lousy. That was not music.
