    No I don't think we can win a Super Bowl with last years defense. I do think we can win one with last years offense.:)

    Did you watch the game? Did you not see how Jacobs ran over us at the end of the game? What was the Pack's total rushing yards I don't quite remember. Tell me could you? Was it over 70?

    So you think Lynch is/was the answer ? Answer to what, the SB win or the 15-1 season.

    Whats a well rounded offense going to get us?

    Due to Salary cap you cant have a stud player at every position. You have to pick and choose. This isnt madden or your fantasy football team.

    On top of the salary issue you have the issue of the O line. You either get an O line that pass blocks well or that run blocks well. Very Very difficult to get both.

    Where would you propose we find said back?

    Where would you propose we get the money to pay said back?

    Where would you propose we get the O line for him to run behind?

    If teams keep winning the SB with little to no running game why would we want to go backwards? Running the ball is more or less dead in todays NFL as it correlates with winning. Hey Jacksonville and Minnesota.

    You sound like you are familiar with football but you can't be seriously suggesting that the Packer plan is to have NO run game? You think TT will cut all RBs and MM will have Rodgers pass every play? Dude, that's not realistic.

    WR heavy is what got us a title and 15 -1... but sure lets dump Jones as he doesnt have a lot longer on his contract. This year Jones is getting paid 2.5 mil.... only 5.5 mil to go before we get ourselves a matt forte

    well his contract is more or less guaranteed so he is staying (disagree with TT on that but watev)

    So cut 2 WRs... you get the money for a RB.... I mean the offense wont be as good but fair enough.

    Now how do you propose we find this runningback?

    No I believe in Rodgers in short situations. 5 wide with the option for Rodgers to get the first with his feet if the play breaks down.

    I dont recall the offense having this issue last season.... does anyone else?
