11-6

I'll predict a strong start and finish based on how the schedule lines up. I think they'll lose some games during the middle of the year that they should have won. I think the Bears will also beat them in Chicago this year.

I think they'll also still struggle on the road in general. It's still a very young team and it's not easy to win on the road in the NFL.

I'll say 7-2 at home, 1-0 neutral site, and 3-4 on the road. The Lions will win the division, but the Packers will win at least one playoff game during the wild card round.

Week 1 Philadelphia in Brazil WIN 1-0

Week 2 Colts at home WIN 2-0

Week 3 at Titans WIN 3-0

Week 4 Vikings at home WIN 4-0

Week 5 at LA Rams Loss 4-1

Week 6 Cards at home Win 5-1

Week 7 Texans at home Loss 5-2

Week 8 at Jaguars Loss 5-3

Week 9 Lions at home Win 6-3

Week 11 at Bears Loss 6-4

Week 12 Niners at home Loss 6-5

Week 13 Dolphins at home Win 7-5

Week 14 at Detroit Loss 7-6

Week 15 at Seattle Win 8-6

Week 16 Saints at home Win 9-6

Week 17 at Vikings Win 10-6

Week 18 Bears at home Win 11-6

11-6

Week 12 Niners at home Loss 6-5

Week 13 Dolphins at home Win 7-5



Hate to break it to ya....but Packers are not losing that Niner game this year. They have it circled.

Now the Dolphins game, I can see them losing after putting so much into the game the week before vs SF.

Flip flop those and you still have your 11 wins plus it'll mean much more in the standings.

.
The Mighty Green Bay Packers will win 14 games in the regular season...
on their way to winning their 14th World Championship in New Orleans

Don't believe me ?
Then riddle me this one:  Super LIX = 59
and 5 + 9 = 14

They even have Green and Gold in the damn SB logo.
What more do you need  ? 



Woooooooooooooo !!!!!

Not quite a prediction, yet it is...

I've always thought the goal every year should be to win the home games and at least split on the road. This year that would be 12-5 or 13-4 with the neutral site game.
Either record could win the division, and given how that affects playoff seeding, that should be Job 1 for the Packers. Any unexpected home loss has to be offset by picking up an additional road win.

I think that is realistic given the schedule and other factors. The biggest difference being they won't lose games like vs the Giants, Raiders, and Falcons last year.

Woooooooooooooo !!!!!

We are on the 14 year plan.

2010
2024

The Packers had a really Jekyll & Hyde season in 2023, from early- to- late, but we can still look at their overall performance and glean some insights as we look toward predicting the 2024 campaign

Here's their DVOA ratings from the now-defunct Football Outsiders.
Its a measure of Ootball efficiency vs your peers and they split it up by offense/defense/STs

https://ftnfantasy.com/dvoa/nfl/team-total-dvoa

What you'll see is that despite the early struggles - GB offense was ranked #6 by year end. That's plenty good enough to get you where you want to go

Conversely, the defense came in at # 27 and ST's came in at # 31.
IF  those 2 units can improve significantly, the Packers have a real chance

I have immense faith in both Hafley and Bisaccia to get er done

On the defensive side, GB was ranked #13 in points allowed at 21.4 per game
IF  they can knock that down by a mere 1.5 pts per game, they'll be in the
Happy Boris zone of giving up less than 20 pts /game

I'd like to make one more comment here as it relates to DC Jeff Hafley.
He's a very very bright dude. And that makes a huge difference on Sunday

If you look at the next two links below, they show 1st half points allowed and 2nd half points allowed for 2023. When there is a huge discrepancy between the 2 halves, it suggests a lack of adjustments and ability to adapt on the fly.

In 2023, the Packers D was 8th in 1st half points allowed
In 2023, the Packers D was 25th in 2nd half points allowed.

When a DC has all week + input from other coaches, he can often do just fine.
But when he has 15 minutes at halftime and limited input from others...you can see the dismal results on Sunday afternoon.

And that's a big part of why I am over the moon about the 2024 squad.
MLF found a really  smert DC   ( hat tip to chongo)

Go Packers

20 points per game is not asking too much of this defense especially with the talent of their preferred starters. As always, health will be key.

The Giants game and Panthers game last season....I think my hair is still growing back on my head where I pulled it out.

Everything happens for a reason. They probably don't get Hafley if they make a DC change before start of 2023 season.

I’m going with 13-4 if they aren’t decimated by injuries. If the injury bug hits, 11-6. No way we are worse than that.

I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned it, but I have a little big of Gypsy blood in me, and sometimes can see the future with amazing clarity. Hence: By the Super Bowl, the Packers are so hot that on one drive Jordan Love is the Center and snaps the ball to Peter Bowden, who completes a 90 yard pass to Romeo Doubs, who midway to the goal line laterals to Bo Melton, who vaults over 4 DB’s to land in the end zone. Greg Joseph has become such a great field goal kicker that he’s calling his shots, intentionally banking kicks off the left or right uprights, or off the crossbar just to make it more challenging. Packers win 72-3.

Mike Ditka is apoplectic and demands that the NFL put an asterisk on the official results because he swears Jordan Love was over the line of scrimmage on one pass. (Old timers will understand that reference). Woo. That was exhausting. Being a gypsy is quite taxing. The Amazing Royal Wulff needs to take a nap. Later.
