That was the final year in a few year stretch where no one feared them. It was lightning in a bottle.
I dont know what everyone in the division was saying. I dont stalk other teams boards. Also still waiting for the source about me saying that, but i wont hold it against you for talking out of your ass. I cant imagine why Bears would even say that back then when Favre was handing games to the Bears via Urlacher interceptions. Smart fans would pay money to see Favre stick around.
Your current team just gave up 5TDs to Jameis Winston and scored 3 points with Rodgers. Id be holding onto last year too.
They didn't stand by Love. If they did, they wouldn't have traded for a guy Rodgers wanted. They would have also traded Rodgers for a haul of picks that would help build around Love. Common sense tells you that are not even sold on him.
Again, enjoy your final moments. Next year forward the division is wide open.
The Packers were playoff contenders in 03 and 04, the only down seasons were 05 and 06. Swing and a miss again lol.
Yes, because we are trash in Florida. Who cares? No more FL games this season.
Yes we did stand by Love. Can you read properly? Rodgers wanted an extension after the season but we wanted to keep the door open on moving onto Love. Rodgers then refused to play, then gave up at the cost of a 6th for Cobb. A negligible amount to pay for one more season of Rodgers.
Why would we trade Rodgers for less after the draft, when we could have him for one more season (what we planned for in the first place) and trade him for more after the season? (Due to their being significantly more teams bidding)
You seem to think that the only way we can be sold on Love, is if we pointlessly jettison Rodgers a season earlier then we expected lol. That makes no sense whatsoever. If we weren't sold on Love, Rodgers would be extended, or Love would be recouped for whatever we could get.
Nope, that's what most fans said when Favre left lol. Next season is just the beginning of another nearly two decade long run of Packers dominance, with the best QB in the division leading us.
