[QUOTE="brandon2348, post: 719019, member: 7094"] Here is where I'm different. Last year for example I had the Packers going 13-3. Heck, I even posted that they were capable of going 16-0. I have had similar expectations the previous years on this forum. What happened? Well I have finally have had enough of the Ted Thompson Kool-Aid and don't like the hangover anymore so I took it upon myself to manage my expectations and pull myself out of denial and for that matter "bias" as you put it. I was biased. Biased that Thompson could do no wrong. That he was a genius. That the Packers were the best etc etc etc.. While I do want the Packers to be the best it's all ******** and there not. Aaron Rodgers is the best and without him they really aren't even a playoff team and Ted Thompson is far from some football genius. That's the reality. So now this year I am supposed to get all charged up and excited because they signed Bennett? I do like the signing but in comparison to what the Packers lost I don't quite get all the buzz. [SIZE=16px]Packers lost a pro bowl guard, there back up guard/center, there most versatile defensive back last year, they lost production at DE and at OLB with Peppers and Jones. They lost production at RB as well. You could say they lost there no.1 corner as Sammie Shields was officially let go. How in the hell does an upgrade at TE off-set all this?[/SIZE] It doesn't and "right now" the Packers match up worse against the Falcons and Cowboys then last year other then having another scoring option. Let's pump the breaks on the Pat's. We gotta get by some of these NFC teams first which we haven't proven we can. Lastly, I do have a new level of appreciation for MM and Capers. I don't know how they could be asked to do any better with the lack of influx of and any consistent talent given to them. For the most part this offseason has been a disaster. [/QUOTE]
