Don't get me wrong, Rodgers is young and the core nucleus of the team is young too.. but I honestly see Green Bay as the ultimate team next year and here is why:
1.) Rodgers is in his prime.
2.) This will likely be the last year we'll have ALL of our star receivers, particularly an underpaid Jordy Nelson. Need to take advantage of that.
3.) Playing with something to prove after a disappointing end to last season.
4.) Defense will be LOADS better, since it is of my opinion that not only was a lack of pass rush our nemesis, but I believe losing Nick Collins put tremendous pressure on our younger DB's. Now they will step up, hopefully with the aid and direction of Woodson and Peprah. I still love Tramon Williams and Sam Shields, I just don't think they were ready to take it all on without the pro-bowler Collins having their back.
5.) Donald Driver, Charles Woodson and Jeff Saturday are all old players who are still at the top of their game.. but this may be their last year, must use what's left in the tank and step up big.
I think anything less than a super bowl APPEARANCE at the very least would be demoralizing, since there's a good chance our team the following year won't be as strong--although there is no doubt they will remain a top tier team for the next decade or so..
