[QUOTE="Bus Cook, post: 515105, member: 9279"] 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 [I]DID [/I]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.
