[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 28254, member: 227"] How long will it last? Lets just rewind a bit and make some key points: - Packers are in the worst division in the NFL. Therefore, it doesn't require them to add endless playmakers, the best D, etc., but rather they do enough to beat out the Viqueens (who are a disaster from top to bottom), Bears (who have a O. that is as good as Coach Slo's D), Lions (who have WR's that are young, inexperienced, and who have no QB to get them the ball). - Packers won last year on clutch FG's from Ryan. This year, they have lost on clutch FG's from Ryan. If Longwell makes the FG's, Pack are asily at least 3-3 at the moment, and atop the NFC North. - Packers have a bunch of yougnesters (Jenkins, Peterson, Poppinga, Collins, Murphy, Manning, Underwood, Whitt, Wells, Coston, Leach, Montgomery, Caroll, Thomas, Hawkins, Rodgers). They have had youngsters step up and still play respectible. They will hopefully continue to improve. - Packers have over 20 million in cap space next year. (Granted they have key FA's too, but regardless, 20 million with only Kampman and Green being key contributors who are FA's is great) NOW, TT came in, got a really bad cap situation, and yet we are now in some cap breathing room. TT came in and got rid of players, and made one thing clear, lack of effort will not be tolerated. He shed Celtidus "I got paid so I don't have to play" Hunt and Darren "I thought we were playing flag football" Sharper. He got rid of problems that were on the team. If that wasn't all, then in one single draft, TT gave our future more of a boost than all of MS's previous drafts combined. He got 2 starters (Collins and Whitt), great reserves (Underwood, Manning, Poppinga), and people who we can build our future around (Rodgers, Murphy, Coston). He replenished our team through only one draft. Say what you will, but it isn't TT's fault the injuries happened. If we pick high, TT is going to have even more talent to choose from, which will be excellent considering the type of drafts he had with the 'Hawks and his first draft with the Packers. If TT even remotly has the type draft he had last year, it will not be long before packers are retooled and ready to go. Now with MS, I believe this year is crucial for him. To be more precise, I believe this year was the best thing for MS. His let downs will serve as invaluable experience to him. He will become better because of what he learns, and his players and the Packers, and the Packer fans will benefit from that. Perhaps MS has to much free time on his hands. Maybe he is analysing things way too much, making things more complex then they need to be. Who knows. But one thing is for sure, MS at this point in the season is better then MS at the start of the season, if for nothing else than his expereince gained. I trust in TT, I trust in MS the coach. I trust in Bob Harlan. With those people at the helm, I trust the Packers to be better next year. [/QUOTE]
