[QUOTE="Packman4Favre, post: 27792, member: 249"] [b]Re: All is not lost, in fact things may be heading back too[/b] Phil- Why wouldn't this make sense? They did not mortgage the future this year, they did not overpay for exsisting players. They did not spend huge money on defensive players(infact they have found these defensive players to be better than they thought). It did not matter what they did in the offseason this year, there was no way this team was going to be better than one and done again. So why spend the money? They are getting a very good idea of what they really need on defense. The Packers had no idea what they had on defense before because Slowik did not teach anything!!!!!!! Now under Bates these players are learning and the Packers are better able to evaluate these guy's based on their physical skills. Last year there was so much confusion on defense that the Packers did not know if it was Slowik, the scheme, or the players lack of physical skills. The Packers are finding out who can play. By finding these things out the Packers will know exactly where and how to spend the money next year. It would have been a guessing game last year bringing people in with little money to spend. There is no question that if the Packers stayed healthy, they'd win this weak division. But for what? One and done! I am sick of 10 and 6 and 1 and done. How about a real shot at the Super Bowl w/Favre. Thompson has come in here with the long term in mind, not another one and done season. The Packers will have 1 bad season and be back on top. Unlike the Bears who still stink and are built!!!!! How many rebuilding years has it been for them? The Packers are not falling into that trap. [/QUOTE]
