Packers fans are not spoiled we have had 25 years of HoF QBs and only have two super bowls to show for it. 7 seasons of Rodgers alone and one in done in every playoff appearance except 2010. More like tortured with all the underachieving.

You must think Thompson has put together one-hell-of-a team and the D will be much improved. I hope you're right.
Because of your "participation trophy" comment I took you to mean only the team winning the Super Bowl is a success. I take it that's not what you mean.
Looking at the posts, I can't help but think us Packers fans have become a bunch of spoiled brats.
I remember the days of being happy with an above .500 record and being really optimistic for the next year.
Not all Packer fans but certainly many. I've said it many times on this forum... most of the TT haters and guys that rag about not winning the SB every year are younger fans that don't even know what a few years of losing feels like much less decades of losing.
I watched through the 70's and 80's and back then I would have been ecstatic with more than 2 division crowns in 20 years. Since then though they have become fairly common. Thus my expectations have been raised. With a top 5 QB and a top 5 offense for most of the past 20 years I am starting to become disappointed with but two Lombardi trophies and one other appearance. With all the hype and expectations, anything short of competing for the Halas is a poor season. I was OK with how this past season ended because of the injuries but barring that happening again it is almost SB or bust for the next few seasons. I am still waiting for the development phase to pay off consistently.Not all Packer fans but certainly many.

Just curious, but does that mean that older fans who watched a worse team are better fans? Not sure I agree with that logic. By that logic, people that live in third world countries are better than those in the developed world because they're happy if they have potable water to drink.
When would a sports fan EVER be deeply satisfied by just finishing above .500? To win a football season you win the Super Bowl, anything else, and you lost. To win a MLB season you win the World Series, anything less and you lost, etc, etc. Unless it's your first year of rebuilding and you go from 1-15 to 8-8, I cannot ever understand how any fan would draw any sort of satisfaction from that. Just my own personal "young" opinion.

I meant in the game, not just the tournament.I agree 100%. ....fact is...they have been in the mix to "compete for the hallas" consistently for many years now.
Why not expect the Packers to win the Super Bowl with Aaron Rodgers at quarterback?
We will be lucky to win the division at the current state.
