    Rodgers's decline was a 26-4 td/int ratio in Year 1 of a new scheme and losing the NFCCG because a nobody ran for 400 yards on his defense. Favre was turning the ball over between 25-35 times a year. One of his lowest seasons in avg yards per game, continued decline in passer rating, lowest completion percentage ever, etc etc. Yes, he still didn't turn the ball over. I think the fact that it ticked Rodgers off resulted in a renewed focus and higher performance on the field. I directly think that it lit a fire under him that was a contributor to his/the teams success. So, in many ways we disagree.

    Rodgers slipped substantially in 2019 as well, and he looked to be on the downward trajectory that you see from most aging QBs. Stating otherwise is revisionist. His 2020 completely changes the conversation, obviously. It was very logical for the team to draft a QB to replace a HOF QB who appeared to be on the decline. Very logical. And, as I noted in my post, it's "some of the same people". Perhaps not you for the reasons you indicated. But a lot of the fan base. A lot.

    Just say no to Davis unless the DH is here to stay permanently. He'd make Ozuna look like a competent defensive player if we ask him to play 3rd everyday.
  4. PeaveyFury
    True. Sadly so. With the state of college FB and men's BB at some point, I fear that UW's 2006 hockey title might be the last big one we see until the landscape changes. VB has a chance to get one someday, but it seems that would take a bit of luck too.

    It's hard to do hypothetical trades up like that, though. There wasn't any movement in the draft after the mid-first round through Jefferson's pick, so who knows who would have actually been willing to trade down, or what you'd have had to give up to do it.
  6. PeaveyFury
    Yep. It was literally the same argument 16 years ago about not giving Favre enough weapons and wasting a pick on a first round QB. Literally the same stuff. Those same people are likely now also some of the ones lamenting this stuff with Rodgers, while completely forgetting the move that got the Packers this extended run of success with another HOF QB. It's surreal, in a way.
  7. PeaveyFury
    My point was that Boyle is the backup QB of this team while Love is a healthy scratch, but I'm sure you know that's what I was saying. And I think you know that what I was saying is that it literally means nothing. Which I also think you know.
  8. PeaveyFury
    Love wouldn't have been available in 2022. They clearly like Love and 2-3 year of development more than a QB they'd draft and need to start immediately. Lol, gee, thanks, I wasn't aware. Are there no QBs in the other drafts? Did you actually read beyond my first sentence? We have zero idea what the lifespan of Rodgers' career is. It looked much shorter after 2019 than it does after 2020. A QB with 2 years of development time makes a lot more sense than a QB with 1 year or less. Or, at least it offers a higher chance of setting the QB up for success.

    Did Tim Boyle play any meaningful snaps this year? I sure am sure that the 2020 draft haters finally got the loss they were waiting for to dissect that over and over for the next few months, but that stuff was MIGHTY quiet over the past several weeks. I'll simply reiterate my point from earlier- sometimes, front offices are better at their jobs than fans are. This isn't an unqualified Mike Sherman running the whole organization. This FO has done nothing but show that they know what they're doing, in both the draft and everything else, basically.

    Even UW Volleyball can't get over the hump. They play their way to #1 rankings, then meet volleyball royalty teams like PSU and Stanford in the finals and get steamrolled every time.

    You seem to have missed the point. The goal of the draft is to make the team better, not just to 'try'. Queen would literally have made them worse. You just can't say 'take anybody', because the NFL doesn't work that way. You have to take the right player. As you said, you don't have to give an answer, but not giving one means you're just venting, IMO. Which I guess is fair for tonight....
  13. PeaveyFury
    Correct, you don't have to give an answer. But, it's worth noting that when you state 'they should have drafted someone else' while not having any actual idea who they could/should have drafted instead, it makes it hard to take the argument seriously. For the record, the guy that many people (including a LOT here) wanted to take instead was Patrick Queen, who was literally the worst MLB in football this year. So yes, drafting a guy that didn't play a down was actually a more successful move for the Packers, as Queen would have negatively effected the results more than Love had a chance to. Sometimes, the front office IS actually better than the fans at their jobs.

    There's really no benefit to the Packers moving Rodgers this offseason, as they'd pay nearly as much to let him go as they would to have him on the roster. Their cap 'out' is after 2021, which is when it'll get interesting. After 2022, they basically can walk away with little consequence if they don't want him on the last year of his deal. Considering the decrease in the cap, the limited cap space they'd get from moving Rodgers this offseason might not even be enough to sign the draft picks you'd get for him.
  15. PeaveyFury
    Who did they need? Who cares, literally anyone besides a backup QB who will either prematurely force someone playing fine out of GB, or never take a snap for them. Not an answer.
  16. PeaveyFury
    Who did they need?
  17. PeaveyFury
    Dude....I JUST went over this. A-They're not "over" any cap because they don't have a cap yet. All they have is a floor. The absolutely LOWEST the cap could possibly be. It's a little unfair to say 'we don't know what the cap is, it's just speculation' regarding the 2021 cap while then stating 'the cap is going to go up a bunch in 2022 so there's nothing to worry about.' If the 2021 cap number is speculation at this point, then the 2022 number is as well, with the disadvantage of one additional year of time to pass before it's set.

    14 Badger basketball technically counts as well.... And I actually think we’ve lost our last 4 Rose Bowls....
  19. PeaveyFury
    Considering that he literally graded out as the worst MLB in football this year, no, actually.
  20. PeaveyFury
    Outraged. If you make that call, make it all day....
  21. PeaveyFury
    Very smart....
  22. PeaveyFury
    Needs something Seattle-like to go our way to pull this out, it seems....
  23. PeaveyFury
    Wow, sliding there saves a time out....
  24. PeaveyFury
    You’re in a weird position that you don’t want to leave Brady any time, but you have to leave time if you miss the two pointer.

    Gigantic momentum shift to get us back in the game? Cue special teams giving up a monster return to answer!
