    Love is "good enough."
  2. OldSchoolSnapper
    I honestly think we're close to being a good team, but just in that weird space where we do so many little things wrong that we usually end up losing. How we finish the last 6 games or so will be interesting to me.
  3. OldSchoolSnapper
    We really don't do anything well this year do we?

    I'm not sure how a sexy manager would be any different. Yeah, when you lose, things tend to change. I'm sure if they hired Robin Yount he'd also be fired when they consistently lose 85 games. I like Craig Counsell. I wish he would have stayed. But I think his influence on their success has been laughably overstated. I think Craig is in for a rude awakening when he tries to replicate the success he'd had with their bullpen. I'm sure a drastic roster overhaul is coming for CHC though. It makes sense me to keep the continuity going when you're consistently finishing top 1/4 of the league. They can't get over the hump because they can't hit. It's not the guy rubbing his face in the dugout.

    It's a boring hire no doubt. But they have a good cultural thing going. I'm not at all surprised they did it this way.
  6. OldSchoolSnapper
    Hot take: they'll be about the same as they have been provided they don't firesale this winter, and Chicago will end up looking silly paying a manager $8 million.
  7. OldSchoolSnapper
    Calling today's a "chance" is being pretty liberal. They had 7 DBs standing at the goal line.
  8. OldSchoolSnapper
    "Reset the market" is hilarious. You just wanted money. That's fine. Say it. Stop using that stupid, "noble" expression.
  9. OldSchoolSnapper
    Comedy of errors. That is an unbelievable play. I literally can't believe what I just saw.
  10. OldSchoolSnapper
    Neither MLF nor Gute will be fired. Probably will be next season if we see more of this. If we do pick top 5 or so I will be very interested in the pick. Hard to argue with a QB but they need so much it's hard to argue with much.
  11. OldSchoolSnapper
    Meh. The roster is substantially worse than it has been in some time and it is far from just the QB. I get that everyone's ticked, but let's be serious. The Packers have had some really great teams over the last 20 years and it wasn't just Aaron Rodgers. And that includes some great drafting in that span.
  12. OldSchoolSnapper
    This is where I am. I don't think he's the 3rd straight Hall of Famer but I don't feel like there's been any true evaluation opportunities. You just can't hand the keys over with all these problems and expect good results. Bad line, bad skill players, an inconsistent defense. Right now the Packers literally do nothing well. Nobody would look good. Rodgers didn't last year. Love obviously looks worse than Rodgers, but we get near halftime and he's thrown 5 passes and we're down 2 scores every week. It's just hot garbage on display.
  13. OldSchoolSnapper
    Gary, Jenkins or Jaire I guess.
  14. OldSchoolSnapper
    The Packers are the worst team in the league. The worst offense in the league at a minimum.
  15. OldSchoolSnapper
    Sean Clifford lol. We've reached Fire Phil Garner stage I see. Unless we draft someone else in the first round or Josh Allen walks through the door, Love is our QB.
  16. OldSchoolSnapper
    It's 1976. This is what everyone said would happen when Favre left. We absolutely suck.
  17. OldSchoolSnapper
    Jones is obviously not fully healthy. He would be carrying the offense if he were.
  18. OldSchoolSnapper
    I thought they had it perfect with 10, #4 and #5 having the play-in. It kept just the right amount of competition going through September and meant teams like ours didn't have to win their division. With just 4 there were not as many races going to the end. It's too many now. That should be obvious when teams can't get 35k into the gates for a Wild Card game. The difference in mood between the '11 series with the DBacks and the '18 with the Rockies and this one was staggering. Some of that is fatigue but some of it, IMO, is "wake me up for the LCS."
  19. OldSchoolSnapper
    It's not just you. Some of these are obvious since we were playing in a LCS or WS, but: 1981 - Lose to Yankees, who play in WS. 1982 - Lose WS to Cardinals 1992 - 92 wins, Finish 2nd in ALE to the Jays, who win WS 2008 - Lose to Phillies, who win WS 2011 - Lose to Cardinals, who win WS 2018 - Lose to Dodgers in LCS, they lose WS 2019 - Lose WC to Nationals, they win WS 2020 - Lose to Dodgers, they win WS 2021 - Lose to Braves, They win WS 2023 - Lose to Diamondbacks, ??

    Glad to see the Astros bounced. Half my family is from Philly so I am backing them, but I find everyone left to be pretty benign.
  21. OldSchoolSnapper
    Yeah this isn't MLB. There's no veteran they're trading for 5 picks. That was Rodgers 2 years ago. Anyone they pawn off will get a very underwhelming return for reasons already mentioned. They need to devote this year to development and put winning the games second. If I'm the coach, Love is throwing 40 passes next week and most weeks. I don't care if he finishes the year with a QBR in the 20s. Figure something out with those WRs or figure out that Love is awful and turn the page. MLF seems to prefer dying slowly, I like to rip the band-aid off. If you get any sort of progress then you can hope with a year of development and more added pieces, a few deals off the books, that things start trending up again. But step 1 is to abandon all hope of winning this year, stop the training wheel stuff.
  22. OldSchoolSnapper
    I'm not even out on Love being a serviceable QB. I think it's clearly apparent now it's more likely that it doesn't work out, but it's a dumpster fire of a year right now at many angles. Couldn't have set up this year much worse.
  23. OldSchoolSnapper
    I think all those guys I mentioned were first round picks.
  24. OldSchoolSnapper
    Probably not. He's shown enough to at worst ping pong around the league as a backup for a handful of years. Brett Hundley had jobs after Green Bay. Sherrod? Harrell? Ahmad Carroll?
  25. OldSchoolSnapper
    We have at least one more year of fixing the offensive line with reach draft picks that don't pan out before we do anything with our QB, I think. MLF canning becomes a legit outcome next season.
