[QUOTE="757Niner, post: 899167, member: 6235"] I think your argument is a little short-sided. Great QB play absolutely helps more than it hurts in playoff football. But it's more to it than HOF QB + GOOD ROSTER = SB. Besides Brady, how many HOF QBs recently have been able to get back to win another SB?? Peyton Manning had to leave Indy to captute his second Lombardi and he did no heavy lifting to get it done. Brees couldn't get it done with the Saints. It isn't just a Rodgers/GB issue. Championship football comes down to coaching and match-ups imo. I wasn't the biggest McCarthy fan. As an outsider, I always felt he leaned on the Rodgers magic a little too much. I saw him oversee some very talented teams that didn't play up to their talent level, far too often. I also thought he rode with Capers far too long and that led to a few playoff exits as the defense didn't hold up their end of the bargain. So this is not soley on the FO. Rodgers is irritated and I get it. He's lost his second straight NFCCG...and as a #1 seed no less. But once he takes some time and looks at it objectively, I think he sees there's no better place for him than GB. Besides maybe Linsley, you dont lose much from a MVP offense next year. Jones might sting a little but RBs are a replaceable commoditiy in today's game unless you're a Saquan or a Derrick Henry. Jones's skillset can be replicated in your offense by a cheaper alternative imo. TB was just a bad match-up for your offense. You give your FO a chance to maybe retool some of the defensive personnel. Get rid of Pettine and dump some draft resources at getting faster, more athletic LB as well as shore up your interior D-Line and you D is should be able to cause more havoc to QBs like Brady. MLF needs to learn and evolve. Use how Bowles was able to bottle up some of his offensive concepts and finds counters. He also needs to be a little more aggressive and assertive with his offense in certain instances. But he is a young coach who is just getting started. His time will come. But it nowhere near as doom and gloom as some of you want to paint it. You all will once again be SB favorites next year in the NFC. There are ALOT of fanbases that would literally die to be where you all are for just a couple of seasons. Chasing that trophy can definitely grind on a fanbase...I know. We've been chasing #6 for 26 years and counting. We went from being 4-0 in the SBs to being 0-2 in our last two tries. You think it sucks losing in the conference championship?? Try losing your last two SB apparences in gut-wretching fashion. Its all a part of the game though. [/QUOTE]
