[QUOTE="Mondio, post: 653695, member: 10441"] as always, i'm of the opinion that if Ted finds value in the player at a price that doesn't put the rest of the team in a bad situation he'll sign them. Assuming of course they want to be here in the first place. I'm also of the opinion that Ted has built some pretty decent teams here and there's been a few things from poor play at the worst possible time, to coaching decisions, to injuries, to just dumb luck, that has kept us from winning at least 1 more superbowl recently too. In between there's been some years where we probably just didn't have enough to win it either, but hey, no team does. In the end, winning is the only thing that will quiet most fans. If the Packers win 2 years ago and continue that play thru this year and win again, what are people complaining about? People would be proclaiming him the greatest ever. It's safe to say that we were good enough 2 years ago to win, and the majority of fans though we were this year heading into the season. But we didn't win, and it's frustrating. That said, I'm also pretty sure had he signed some names people recognize and we won they'd be saying he's the greatest thing ever too. Just as I'm sure had he signed some recognizable names and they didn't work out like Byrd and some others that put us in such cap trouble we had to trade our 2nd best offensive player on the team and would cause us to cut up and comers in a few season and we didn't win another superbowl, they'd be talking about how stupid all his FA signings were too. another thing i'm certain of, because most of the above is all hypotheticals, everyone will tell me how it wouldn't be that way for whatever reason :) anyway, every year some really good coaches and players do not win a superbowl and for all sorts of reasons and as disappointing as last season was, barring any significant injuries, I'm confident we'll be back in the mix again next year. After that i'm hoping for a few breaks [/QUOTE]
