[QUOTE="Deleted member 6794, post: 656742"] Last season the Broncos won the Super Bowl with terrible QB play by Manning. In addition the Vikings won the division with Bridgewater playing at a mediocre level at best. The Texans made the playoffs with Hoyer, Mallett, Yates and Weeden starting for them. Roethlisberger and Smith didn't have a great season last year either. In addition the Seahawks, Ravens and Giants all have won Super Bowls in the last five years without elite QB play. This post perfectly sums up the ridiculous attitude of the Thompson can't do wrong crowd. Within the last few days I haven't seen anybody mention a word about the Packers being in danger of not making the playoffs in 2016. It will be awfully tough to win the Super Bowl with positions of need not being adequately addressed though. Just like the Packers aren't anything special without Rodgers. I think that Thompson is deeply invested in scouting college players and spends more time than any other general manager on doing so. But on the other hand he doesn't care that much about evaluating free agent talent. That's why I'm convinced he's best suited to be an awesome director of college scouting but not an NFL general manager. The Packers suffered the ninth fewest adjusted games lost last season. There's no rwason to use injuries as an excuse for the Packers struggles in 2015. Rodgers' stats during the first six games: 124-of-182 (68.13%), 1,491 yards (8.19 YPA), 15 TD, 2 INT, 115.9 rating Rodgers' stats the rest of the season, including playoffs: 268-of-470 (57.02%), 2,801 yards (5.96 YPA), 20 TD, 7 INT, 82.4 rating Not surprisingly the Packers went 6-0 during the first six games while losing seven of 12 the rest of the way. If Rodgers had played mediocre the entire season the team wouldn't have made the playoffs. [/QUOTE]
