[QUOTE="Packerlifer, post: 246470, member: 1242"] It' good to see so many pundits overlooking and underestimating the Packers. The tune sounds similar to the 2007 preseason wags. Saying the Bears are the same team that went to the Super Bowl 3 years ago plus Jay Cutler is ludicrous. Yeah, a lot of the names are the same but they're not the same team. Their defense was worse than the Packers' last season and they didn't do anything notable to improve it going in to this year. The Vikings look like last year's Jacksonville Jags. A playoff team in '07 many thought they could take the next step in '08 with their run defense and rushing game and a game managing qb in Garrard. They ended up falling from 11-5 to 5-11 in just one year. The free agency loss of Matt Birk, the looming suspensions of dt's Kevin Williams and Pat Williams, the unsettled qb situation, the coaching among other things about this club could easily put them in the half of one year's playoff teams that don't make it back the next. A healthier Green Bay team, with more discipline and fewer critical mistakes could well be poised for a surprise rebound similar to '07; when nobody saw them coming then. [/QUOTE]
