hahaha right on, find a post in my post history where I've predicted doom and gloom because Rodgers was underperforming in the beginning of the season. Go on I'll wait. I can save you some time though because I guarantee I've never posted anything of the sort. Also I'm not talking about the Panther game specifically so your prediction about that is besides the point.
You'll note that I complimented your prediction about Rodgers' resurgence over this last month as a very safe bet; it was. I agree that predictions of a failed season because Rodgers somehow forgot to play over the offseason or some other such claims were over zealous, I don't agree with them but that's another topic entirely. I don't see the cause in perpetuating the ********** of this forum though. When we're losing those with thin skins bemoan the Packers' lackluster performances. When we're winning the less thin skinned crowd lauds about and denigrates on the other side. It gets super grating when that is all that propagates the front page.
I apologize for my contention possibly getting lost in everything that was being said and I hope this is more clear.
We agree...and that was the point I was making. I said just that... "enjoy the ride". I've said that many times.
I have no problem with fans complaining about whatever they want to complain about. He##, I have complaints. ...but... there are clearly some fans that can't enjoy anything less than a Super Bowl winning season and there are guys that literally try so hard to find negatives they spin themselves in circles.
Perfect example is trying to suggest the Packers have beaten nobody. What's actually really amusing is that we did in fact have guys telling us how tough some of these teams were before we played them and before we beat them.
This year more than ever in recent history, the "we beat nobody" is not a very valid argument. Who should we be impressed with? The Niners that couldn't beat the Bears? Seattle at 3-3? We just beat the Panthers that are leading their division at 3-3. Who exactly would we have to beat that would be impressive? Did you see the people here suggesting the Bills were this amazing team? Yet, they had to go to one second left to beat the Vikqueens?
The NFL is completely jacked up this year. What about that amazing Bears offense? Many of us are on record as saying we don't care who they have on that team they have Jay Cutler as their QB and they'll go nowhere but some STILL trot them out year after year as the team to beat. That's what I'm talking about. It's illogical to think somehow Cutler won't be Cutler and he'll lead them to the promise land. He is who he is and short of massive Packer injuries, we'll continue to beat the Bears consistently under Rodgers. No after the fact gloating...been saying that for years!
I would love to play Dallas today and I would pick the Packers. I would lay money on the Packers beating them. I can honestly tell you that until they beat the Niners or Seahags I wouldn't feel good about those match-up because ...again...I tend to deal in facts and past history and logic and there's little that tells me I should feel great about facing healthy Niners or Seahags given how we're matched up in the past. So...no...I'm not just some off the wall blind Packer fan.
Would I be shocked if we beat either of them? Nope. If the Rams can beat the Hags we certainly could. If the Bears can beat the Niners we certainly could.
