I don't think we are playing as well this year compared to last.Cdragon wrote: ↑05 Nov 2024 10:46We are definitely Super Bowl contenders. We were within a minute of the Championship game last year. Our D is miles ahead of last year. We now have a kicker with a reasonable expectation of putting it through the uprights. We have a beast of a runner. We know our QB can play better. I'd like a little more depth on the D side of the ball but we are in the mix. Just need to stop aiding the enemy and some racing luck. Who knows what today's contenders are going to be in 2 months. We could easily surface as the top dogs!
I think we are at comparable spots of the season, but well below Loves ability level during the last half of 23 season, the thing is the last time Love was at full health was 8 games ago, and he was rusty as a ol barn nail then.Pugger wrote: ↑05 Nov 2024 15:14I don't think we are playing as well this year compared to last.Cdragon wrote: ↑05 Nov 2024 10:46We are definitely Super Bowl contenders.

The window can be this year but it's much more a result of the players just playing well. I don't see an external piece coming in and transforming this team. Just stop false starting and start catching footballs. Oh and don't throw it to the other team.Backthepack4ever wrote: ↑05 Nov 2024 11:33Right now I don't care about next year or 2. The time is now. The window is this year. I hope GB is thinking the same thing. The lions are good but nothing that looks unstoppable.
MF has shown to get his squad humming in the 2nd half of the season. Clean up the mistakes and stay healthy and GB has as good of chance as ANY NFC team.
It's super bowl or busy imo and it starts by resting and then stomping the bares.
Oh and trading for Greg newsome would be cool.

Agreed. And thanks! I remember back to the Al Davis Raiders. They stacked up loads of penalties and errors. But in the end, they usually roughed up the opposition enough to win more than their share of games and a couple of Lombardi's. They were really good for a time. But they were also hard to watch if you wanted a well-oiled and finely-executing football machine. That is not what they were.go pak go wrote: ↑04 Nov 2024 09:45If you stack MLF against any other coach, you're going to come away with MLF is a really, really good coach. Every coach has flaws. Every team has flaws. And sometimes coaches will hit hot streaks that make them look legendary but let them coach long enough and they will have enough bad things to also show as they regress to the mean.Scott4Pack wrote: ↑04 Nov 2024 09:42Thanks for inquiring.
I could lament about Love's pick six, penalties, bad snaps, drops, etc. Maybe every complaint would be justified. I just think there is a bigger picture thing that is shaping up under MLF's leadership. The first that I noticed it was the start of 2023 when the Pack seemed like one of the worst teams in the league. (They were.) It took several games before they gelled and turned into a formidable team that nobody wanted to face in January. That said, why did it take almost two months of regular season play before they played like they belonged in the top half of the league?
This year, it seems to me that the same "issue" is appearing. It's just manifesting itself differently than last year. We see the slop that they are putting on the field yesterday and against the Vikes. It's clear that they do have loads of talent. But it's also like there is chaos on the field. Even in outgaining the Lions, the Pack had no chance of winning that game.
I have to admit that I am concerned. Is a "season of chaos" something that we need to live with under MLF? If we show bad in 4-6 games a year but kick butt the rest, that's probably okay, especially if we can do deep into January. It'll just be really painful to watch during those 4-6 games. Even the #1 team in the league isn't going to be pure every week.
Here's to hoping that the ship is made right sooner than later.
Well then "RUN IT, AND LET'S GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE". I won't be in the mood to travel to a venue other than Lambeau in January.go pak go wrote: ↑06 Nov 2024 09:59There are two ways we can get a home playoff game:
1. Win the division
2. Get the 5 seed and hope a wildcard team wins their first two playoff games
We it wouldn't be that much of a stretch to think the other division leaders aren't that strong so you might have a WC sweep, and we could get a home game.RingoCStarrQB wrote: ↑06 Nov 2024 17:08Well then "RUN IT, AND LET'S GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE".

I never considered this team a SB contender...yet. I think we are a year or 2 away. Until they become more disciplined and stop hurting themselves with these screwups we won't be hoisting a Lombardi any time soon.
