The defensiveness here is outstanding. If the Packers didn't have a stud long snapper for 40+ years, I would find it odd. No correlation to winning superbowls. No correlation to winning records. Just odd. I am well aware that the league is pass happy, but that makes my post all the more sound. When the NFL DID value rushing, we didn't have a stud RB since Brockington, Green having been in the pass happy years. If you want to associate NOT having success with having a stub back, fine. My post had nothing to do with that though. Very simple. In 40+ years, we've had one quasi stud RB. Face Value. Nothing to read into it. Never implied that we would have gone to more SuperBowls with a stud RB. Please reread the OP and try to find the windmills that the Don Quixotes are fighting here.
I'll try a parallel with the Bears, so as to disarm the Packer fan defensiveness here. I find it odd/concerning that the Bears have not had a stud QB in 50+ years. You almost have to try to do that. I find it truly amazing that over 50 year, they couldn't have managed, by mistake to have a stud QB. Now of course the reason is, there would be no way to have a Walter Payton and a stud QB. I know that I would rather have a Walter Payton and a dud QB over a stud QB and no Walter Payton. Funny how without a stud QB they still managed to go to Superbowls twice. You know that Brad Johnson, Jim McMahon, Trent Dilfer, Mark Ryppien, Jeff Hostettler, Doug Williams and Joe Namath have won superbowls. So there is no guarantee that you need a good QB to win a superbowl. <sarcasm off>
