NFC North/Norris Division chatter and trash talk

[LambeauLegs]

Again this was earlier in the year.

You posted this saying the Packers suck on June 16th about 5 weeks before training camp

Please explain in detail the improvements you have seen the Packer make to change your point of view since June 16th

 

[LambeauLegs]

Love will most likely now be passing more this season starting with all the receivers healthy

As mentioned before the one thing most Packer fans have seen in preseason is the huge improvement in special teams. When you were ranked last in special teams in the most recent years and now you are ranked #1 that is a huge improvement. It is not just the kicker making 60 yarders right down the middle who was 100% on his kicks in preseason, also having one of the best punters. But it was a lack of Packer penalties of blocking in the back on kickoff and punt returns causing them to start drives inside the 20, it was getting a return guy that can get yards. It is not kicking the ball into the endzone allowing teams to start at the 35 but kicking the ball constantly to the 5 yard line near the sideline so they can box the runner in and be tackled around the 20 yard line. When teams kick off to GB if they kick into the endzone the Packers will be in scoring range after gaining just 20 to 25 yards.

You claim it means nothing but it 1/3 of the game and can make big differences in the way games turn out.

The new special teams coordinator is doing amazing work

IDC about special teams or whatever,

Are you f***ing high? He's nothing close to Favre or Rodgers. And Brees was terrible his first few years in San Diego.

Loves stats are better than Favre and Rodgers and Breese at the same points in their careers. Those who are not Packer fans only remember the amazing days of Favre and Rodgers and not how they played in the first 3 years as a starter. Love still has room to grow like Favre and Rodgers did and he is on a faster pace than Farve and Rodgers. Take some time and pop up the stats of those 3 QBs for their first 3 years as a starter. Breese is not even close in his first 3 years

It will be by committee....until Jacobs returns, if he returns.

You guys should really make up your minds, so running backs matter or is that only the case when talking about another team?

All positions matter........who said rbs don't.....??

Swift is not going anywhere till age catches up,salary cap or freeagency calls.....
James Cook-Jeanty-Henry-Chase Brown-Gibbs-CMC-Barkley and a few others won't be going nowhere either......
So ya,rbs do matter.......

Actually, I was asking because I have a Draft for FF coming up on Thursday night.

Picked up Love last night as my QB 2 because I figure he will have to do a lot more passing to start the season.

...Having Watson, Reed, Golden and Kraft on the field at the same time happened zero plays last season. I'm not holding my breath, but if Love gets 17 games of that with at least "adequate" pass blocking, the Packers could easily finish this season with the most proficient passing game in the NFL.

In that case, if it were me I would stay away. I would keep an eye on the guy they traded for, but who knows

gotta say legs, fools gold like Dallas fans can be about Prescott. HUGE year for Love. Dak is older, every year is huge for him and the organization.

Onward through the unknown for both.

Take Lloyd in later rounds if still there... he lasted until 9th round (12 teams) in our league (Sunday draft). Was kicking myself did not take him in 8th round (was lined up to take him with next pick in 9th when he was taken).

If he stays healthy could rack up a lot of points early in season if Jacobs out couple of weeks as expected. Worth a flyer IMO.

If he's so amazing as a starter why are people questioning whether he's the long-term solution and stating this is a "make or break" year? They weren't doing that with the other two.

But, sure, you go on ahead and pretend that numbers tell the whole story just like all the other kids on here who don't watch any sports. This applies double for Favre. If you weren't watching his heroics every other week then you don't get it.

Still only preseason, see if it carries over to regular season. Trey Smack struggled in camp until the preseason games, hopefully he works out as rookie kicker. Looked like he got things figure out... hopefully he is clutch in pressure situations as well.

Sheppard who had punt return touchdown is now on Miami's PS an Strong who had kickoff return touchdown is on Packers PS.

Lot of the players playing on special teams for Packers and who they were playing against may not be on active rosters to start season. Want to see what STs does in regular season before get too excited.

You are ignorant if you think this is make or break year for Love. He has 2 more years to prove himself before Packers will make a decision to move on.

According to who?

 

[PnkPanther]

Love is a top 10 qb pushing closer to top 5. GB isn't moving on anytime soon

Now Lafleur, he could be in trouble if they flounder this year

Love pushing closer to top 5? That’s stretching it big time. I’m not sure if I would have Love in my top 10 QBs.

So I think some here are too harsh and one poster in particular too over the top with his greatness.

According to:

• Most Packers sports radio analysts who follow the team every day
• Anyone who knows anything about Love's contract
• Anyone who understands why the GM went out and got Micah Parsons just last year
• Anyone who listens to LaFleur an Gutey press conferences who believe in Love

Packers believe they got their QB and now Parsons on defense as their 2 cornerstones... they created a 4 year window with Love and Micah's contracts and they are only in year 2. Hopefully Love takes another step... but almost all teams are hoping the same for their QB.

Now your turn... why is this a make or break year for Love and why are the Packers going to move on from him after 2026?

 

[Tainthappening]

I think I know this answer.....

 

[Hotel Security]

[*]Most Packers sports radio analysts who follow the team every day - So guys who are either employed by the team itself or who are going to be nice so they can get team access and because they want to interview players and coaches on their show?
[*]Anyone who knows anything about Love's contract - What the f*** does his contract have to do with whether they're doubting him?
[*]Anyone who understands why the GM went out and got Micah Parsons just last year - Resulting in the same playoff results that they had the year before.
[*]Anyone who listens to LaFleur an Gutey press conferences who believe in Love - Yeah, because a coach is always truthful when talking about your own players.

Every one of your so-called "Sources" are completely untrustworthy, nonsensical, or biased.

Bro, just because you're hopelessly biased and have a hard-on for Love does not mean that absolutely no one is questioning his future and whether he's really going to be the guy to take them up a level. The Pack has been treading water for a few years now and Love has really not stepped up his game to match the Hall-of-Famers you're trying to compare them too. Plenty have noticed this and commented. I'm not just making this s*** up. You burying your head in the sand is not an argument.[/QUOTE]
