[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 546189"] The rating is heavily weighted toward the Rodgers/Favre decisions. It took a lot of balls, and he was dead right in first drafting Rodgers and then right again in making the switch, knowing full well the latter decision would raise a sh*t storm. It was a decade-long franchise maker decision. You know what they say...when you have an elite QB you start at 8-8 and work up from there. The last few years have not been top 10. The drafts have been C+/B- the last few years and as a result the team, on balance, is not championship caliber even if the breaks and bounces go our way in the playoffs. The best we can say about the situation is we did not go to cap hell while treading water. Thompson seems to have gotten a little too conservative, a little too formulaic, in the mode of "get to the playoffs and see what happens". A little creative destruction might be in order. With only 1 of 20 free agents signed to date perhaps he's come to the same conclusion. Fans won't like it, but it looks like a 2-year plan is in order. [/QUOTE]
