[QUOTE="Lionheart, post: 484919, member: 3452"] Here's the problem. The Packers have stagnated. The way things are, with the competition the Pack are going to face in the foreseeable future, we can expect Aaron Packers to pile on records, the Packers to put on occasional shows against weaker opponents; but come playoff time, against physical teams like the 49ers, the Seahaws, the Vikings (watch out for them if they get it right with Ponder), the Giants or the Redskins, the Packers lack solutions. This is much like when Brett Favre played. Two Super Bowl appearances, one win and then never getting there again, with a team calibrated to suit Brett Farvre and not win championships. The defense has to improve significantly because it's nowhere near a championship caliber one now. The Packers have to have a consistent running game, not a sporadic running game, like the one they have now, resorting to 'improvisations' like Harris or Starks. For that they have to improve the offensive line as well, even to protect Aaron Rodgers, who's the most sacked QB in the NFL. If they have to let go of Jennings to reinforce other sectors of the team, I'm all for it. We need more solutions, options for a balanced game. It's going to take time, but I hope management takes that approach. If it goes agains the coaches's 'philosophy' of play, then it's a problem and probably their time is up too. [/QUOTE]
