Fuck the vikings
Sticking with 10
Saw a projection last night that put GB's chances of winning the division at 12%. They had the order as Detroit, MN, Bears, GB. They only pegged Detroit's chances of taking the division at 43%. Clearly, there is no real favorite.
I hope we can squeak it out to 10-7 and a WC, but I'd be happy with 9-8. If Love plays like he did in the fourth practice, it's not out of reach.
Damn bro.....I listened to that a month ago.
You just catching up??
11 plus or minus 3 based on Carlson.
They'll win more than they lose.
9-8, but lots of improvement with better wins coming later in the year.
8-10 wins. Just beat those assholes to the West, South and East and I'm happy!
So 6 and 0 in the division and only win two more games outside of the division.
I'll just say this much. They win all six games in the division. They're probably going to the playoffs
10-7. This team can do that.

I'm all in when it comes to GBP sweeping the North. That's 6 wins of the 10 I'm hoping they win. They should be able to get 4 more wins with the remainder of their schedule, to get to 10-7. Who knows, maybe more!

I'd be happy if they split the division games. Offense/Love is going to be a roller coaster ride this season.
Nothing wrong with a roller-coaster as long as it stays on track.
"The goal here is to win a championship.... And sometimes you have to create room to get better. You can't get better without playing.... It's not easy, growing pains are never easy, but if we're going to win a championship, we have to get better. We weren't good enough last year, we have to get better. And sometimes you have to create opportunities for that to happen." - Brian Gutekunst
Well thatâs just great. Now that Boris has revealed my identity Iâm going to have to post a self-aggrandizing âIâm Leavingâ thread and go back into hiding.
Thanks FRZ

I don't think it will be that bad. There should be a strong running game to fall back on, MLF's offense features a lot of movement and short passing, and if the defense starts crowding the LOS there is plenty of speed to take the top off the defense. The Packers won 7 less games the first year Rodgers was QB. That's not going to happen in Love's first season.

Right?!? I think at a minimum, barring catastrophic injuries, they can match last season and win 8 games.
Defense and running game baby. Very underrated.
If Bakhtiari and Jenkins stay healthy the whole year, I'll say the Packers win at least 9-10 games. If Bakh struggles to stay on the field again, I'll say 6-7 wins. As promising as Walker may be, HOF-level LTs aren't that common, and Bakh is at that level when healthy. His presence at LT opens up a lot more of the playbook in the passing game.
With a 17 game schedule I see the Packers winning 10 regardless what happens to Bakh.
I think they go 4/4 in the division games and non-division plus one more loss.
8-9
Comprehension.
The main question I have is if Love will be able to do more with this offense than Rodgers did last year simply because he will play within the system, accept throwing the short passes, and be willing to throw to whoever is available. Can the whole be better than the sum of its parts?
"Last year" is the qualifier. Last year AR was a middle of the road QB so 10's first year as a starter could be a push.

Wait a minute.....win the first 2....ON THE ROAD!! Then proceed to go 5-10 for the last 15. With only 3 wins at Lambeau.....and we pull a win over the NYG in NY. Finishing a respectable 4-5 on the road
Ok â Got it! ð In.
Beat Lions at home. Beat the Raiders. Beat the Vikings at home. Beat the Panthers too.
My brain said 8 wins this morning so I'm going with 8. But if the D and ST plays up to their potential I think we have a good shot at winning the division.

Lambeau hasn't been a home field advantage in a long time. This isn't your Mike Holmgren Packers. Plus, they got 2 cold weather home games, 1 against the Bucs and 1 against the Bears. I marked them both as W's
I got four reasons why this team won't be above 500.
1 - Jordan Love inexperience and propensity to turn it over.
2 - Joe Barry loves his soft zones.
3 - Rookie kicker will cost us at least 2 games.
4 - Safety and CB depth is bad news. There is a chance that the pass rush is special and hides them, but see #2 on the list. Barry will rush 3 on 3rd 11 and one of those turds will fuck up.
5 - You're a compulsive eeyore.

Love's propensity to turn it over? What is that based on?
Probably the zero picks in the three preseason games times 17 regular season games divided by booze.
@PackerRick posted:Love's propensity to turn it over? What is that based on?
He threw 17 picks and 20 TDs in his last year of college. Granted there was a lot going on there with changing coaches and personnel but the numbers weren't pretty. Hopefully he's learned from that over the last 3 years. He's definitely played well this pre season and during some limited live action.
