If you're not having fun, it's not Ted Thompsons fault.
That's your blind take. Thousands of Packer fans feel exactly how I do.

And they reason they're miserable has nothing to do with Ted either.That's your blind take. Thousands of Packer fans feel exactly how I do.
My reason for being miserable is simple. We have the best quarterback in football aren't winning Super Bowls.And they reason they're miserable has nothing to do with Ted either.
Yeah He may have meant savant.... but I liked servant much better lol.There it is. The voice of objectivity and reason.
"Idiot servant" is probably my favorite part.
A bit off topic... but I could very much see Atlanta losing a step after the way they gave a away the SuperBowl. Many on here attribute the Packers offensive slump to the 2014 NFCCC in Seattle. IMO Atlanta's choke job in the last SuperBOWL trumps that.Sadly me neither. But at this point, it might be what we have to rely on.
With the current make up of this team, assuming the RB position is solidified and the offensive line performs to the same level of last season, our only hope is that AR and company comes flying out of the gates and puts up another 2011-like season - catapulting the team to a #1 seed. And just hoping that Ryan or whatever other quarterback can't perform in the elements at Lambeau.

If Packer fans are getting "ripped off" then most of the fan bases in the league are getting mugged, brutally murdered, and left in a ditch somewhere.
I wouldn't count on it. That's a young team.A bit off topic... but I could very much see Atlanta losing a step after the way they gave a away the SuperBowl. Many on here attribute the Packers offensive slump to the 2014 NFCCC in Seattle. IMO Atlanta's choke job in the last SuperBOWL trumps that.
You could add TE to that list, i.e., the gap between Finley and Cook.I agree that it's possible the defense improves because several young players on defense progress significantly this season. I'm not excited about Thompson seemingly relying on it though, especially as it hasn't worked at safety and inside linebacker in past seasons.
If you think Thompson likes to spew about anything into the microphone, I think you are pretty much a hopeless case in terms of having a rational conversation. Your reality is difficult to understand.I don't know about you but I don't like getting ripped off. Right now as paying fans some of us are getting "ripped off". We're being sold a bill of goods in regards to the Packers and Thompson's actions don't align with the expectations they love to get up there a spew about.
Miserable is a pretty strong word. Relax and enjoy the ride. Take comfort in knowing you're not a Bears, Vikings or Lions fan that is constantly looking up at us.My reason for being miserable is simple. We have the best quarterback in football aren't winning Super Bowls.
And yes. Ted Thompson is the primary reason for that.
I wouldn't count on it. That's a young team.
I don't know why people keep bringing up the "the rest of the league" when talking about this. The Packers are in a very unique situation here and have the potential to have a dynasty. I know A-Rodge wants to play into his 40's but that is no guarantee. The clock is ticking and what are the chances of getting a 3rd straight HOF QB when Rodgers is done?
The time is now. The time isn't to be putting the season on 3rd year players that have regressed. And before someone brings up Devante Adams I don't see these corners in a similar situation as Adams was last year. Adams had some concentration issues in 2nd year and was able to correct it for the most part. Even with all this Adams wasn't required to be the no.1 receiver this past year. Randall and Rollins can't get to where they need to be which is a much larger problem..

I bring up the rest of the league because it lends perspective. Obviously with Rodgers the expectations are higher. But the Packers have also been one of the 3-5 most successful franchises in the league since Thompson took over.
So I'm saying it's hard to argue that Pack fans are getting or have been ripped off when they've been watching a product that's superior to the vast majority of the league. Without looking at that, we develop myopic expectations and are bound to be disappointed.
Somehow my mesaage gets lost in translation and people on here turn it into wanting a pro bowler at every position and spending unlimited money in free agency which I have never suggested either.
Exactly.Then it gets redirected that were so lucky to beat the Bears, Lions and Queens and we're so lucky to have Ted Thompson. Like nobody in the whole world could get this team to the playoffs with Aaron Rodgers. Its just pathetic.
and most others in the world passed on Aaron Rodgers too. Take it for what it's worth I guess.
