That's only because good teams score so quickly on you. ?
Seriously, Rodgers is back but it's silly that it took drafting a QB to make that happen. Makes me think that a good playoff pressure D will have him wilt a bit. Your O has great #s but you're playing some weak Ds. Same schedule and KC looks better. In fact they already beat you at everything outside of .5 points a game a a few run yards. They are significantly ahead in total yards and passing yards.

The D is average at worst lol. We aren't being scored on quickly. Our secondary one of the best in the league.

The Chiefs are ahead in pass yards because they pass more lol. Who tf cares. We are better at scoring points, and have better TOP.

Our O is literally the best in history right now lol.

I wasn’t taking about our defense though. I was simply stating Packers have a great offense but a defense that can easily be scored on.

No it cant be lol. It's an average D with a great secondary. It was ranked around the same place this time last season and ended up 9th overall.

Not only is it an average D at least, its really an above average D that just looks worse because our phenomenal O puts us in prevent early.

I’m not disagreeing with that at all but clearly the Packers defense has held their organization back since winning the Super Bowl. They haven’t made it back since. And the only reason they have never made it back is because of the defense. They are a great team, but eventuality will face a team that can keep up with them offensively and stop them on defense.

This D is better then those defenses.

I don't think any team can keep up with us offensively unless we just have a shitty game, or turn the ball over uncharacteristically.

GB is the only team in the league that can hang with the Chiefs.

Meh, Packers are overrated.

Who have they beat this year? I see one good win, against the Saints.

Got shit stomped by the Bucs, lost to the Colts and the Vikings.

Eeked out a win against the Jags.

2 wins against the Lions and Bears
(Not all that impressive last game vs the Lions.)

1 against the Vikes

Atlanta?
Eagles?
49's?

People said this same bullshit last year when we had the best record in the league against winning teams lol.

Exactly. Phenomenal offense, but the D is middle of the pack. Anything can happen though.

The D is middle of the pack now. By the playoffs, it will be right outside the top 10 likely.

Like I said, our D is average right now, but looks worse then it is because we always go into prevent early due to our O.

I don’t think the Packers are overrated but like I mentioned before, their defense will hold them back.

If our biggest issue is an average D, then that seems pretty fine to me. Especially with the best O in history and league best TOP.

Then you got curb stomped by the 49ers because of the same weak run d. The team really hasn't improved.

Their offense is phenomenal but defense is pretty weak. I think there are a handful of teams better then the Packers.
They can be blown up though on offense too. Like they can't beat a great defensive line still. Tampa poses a big threat to them, and so do the Saints with or without Brees. Both those teams can take the run and Adams away. Slow Aaron down, wait for mistakes, dropped passes, etc. Keep the ball from him, burn some clock.

They are multi-toothed and cause problems...so ya'll are probably right if you play a bunch of games round robin they end up 5-7. But they are going to struggle against anyone good defensively that also has an offense and probably get blown out again at some point in the playoffs. Thats just who they are and how they are built. They overpower you with Jones/Adams/Rogers greatness, but if you can go to work on their D and take premium weapons away, they will cave in the trenches.

The reality is if Trubisky plays well and the defense plays aggressive and hits AR a lot the Bears have a chance of beating them.

You can not sit back on Rogers, he will pick you to pieces

"You can not sit back on Rogers, he will pick you to pieces"

Sitting back on Rodgers is Paganos mantra

The key to beating GB is pressure on Rodgers, but thats a 4 letter word aroundPagano

No, not at all. We were more banged up then the Saints when we played them, and we still won, in NO. We are the ones with best O in history ever, not them, and by the time this season finishes, Rodgers will have had clearly the greatest QB season in history.

The Saints are now, and have been for the last decade, the shitty, less successful, discount Packers lol.
One of the greatest, not the greatest. It'll be top 5 but Peyton manning 55 TDs and just short of 5500 yards will definitely have it beat.

The Packers aren't a SB team, they're just a great regular season team like they always are. Defense isn't good enough.

They can be with home field and matchups falling in their favor. All the NFC teams are kinda meh, tbh. Any one of them could make a run in the playoffs, except probably the NFCE champ. I could see WFT giving teams fits with that front seven though, but they don't have the offense regardless of who's at QB.

That's true they might make the SB but I think a team like the Chiefs are clearly better than them. Also TB wrecked them similarly to how SF did last season and that's a tough matchup for them. If TB can make the Championship game I think they should be the favorite.

I can't see TB getting that far. They struggle against teams that pressure up the middle. Honestly, I could see WFT beating them in a slugfest. They'd also likely have to go through N.O., who has outright pwned them.
