No I remember that clearly but wasn't JJ fat and slow/unmotivated by time he got to GB?  I don't remember 81' being an 8-8 year but my memory from that age isn't crystal clear.  I was also a Chargers fan (because I liked chargers, as in 69 dodge, and also lightning bolts) that year and remember Fouts, Winslow, JJ, Muncie and Chandler.  I was hoping for a Chargers/Eagles SB.

'81 certainly wasn't a great year by any means compared to the past 25 years.  But it wasn't one of the really really awful Packers teams like say '79 or '80 or some of those really bad teams post John Hadl trade, or the bad teams post trade for Mossy Cade, etc. etc.  The '81 team actually showed some glimmers of hope and the Packers did play some good football in the strike shortened season of '82 making the playoffs and winning the division.   That was about it though in terms of good football until about 10 years later.
