Giannis likely leaving Milwaukee will be a sad day, but it would have been much worse had they not won a championship. No one can ever take that away from him or the 2021 Bucks.
-
Shocking that a .593 OPS may in fact not cut the mustard for an everyday player.
-
I actually have no issue with the hire. I do find the 4th quarter meltdown correlation to be humorous, though. I think a lot of Packer fans wanted Leonhard and were always going to be disappointed with anyone else. I am as much fine with Gannon as I would have been with most other hires. It’s not Joe Barry.

Basically, we can’t discount or downplay anyone else’s path to the Super Bowl. The Patriots had to beat 3 NFL playoff teams to get to where they are. That’s as many playoff wins alone as Matt Lafleur has in his entire tenure. No one is taking anything away from our 2010-11 run because we the NFC was down that year, nor should they.

The Packers play in the NFC, a wide open conference where pretty much every team has weaknesses that can be exploited. No elite QBs unless you count Jalen Hurts who is plenty vulnerable. Other teams who took a shot on HOF level quarterbacks capitalized and won Super Bowls, not necessarily because of those QBs alone, but because they surrounded those QBs with great coaching and a sufficient supporting cast to win. The Broncos with Peyton Manning, then the Bucs with Tom Brady. The Steelers with Aaron Rodgers were pretty much the Packers with Aaron Rodgers.

I think the career of AJ Hawk is the perfect facsimile for the modern Green Bay Packers. Top 5 picks, super high expectations…and never really lived up to them. But, he was competent. So we payed him. And he continued to be competent, but never great. That’s today’s Packers. I don’t think Matt Lafleur is a bad coach, I think he’s a very average one, and the organization is happy with that. Brian Gutekunst is not a bad GM, he’s a very average one, and the organization is happy with that. We don’t look at teams like the Chiefs and Patriots and think, “we really want to be more like them.” We look at teams like the Jets and Browns and say “we really don’t want to become them.” So as a result, we’ve become the NFC’s Steelers, with a slightly higher ceiling and a slightly lower floor.

Sure. It seems to be hard for all but a handful of teams in the league, and we are not among that handful. My biggest gripe is that we’ve had high end QB play basically by default almost the entire time. The biggest piece of the puzzle has been in place. You should not have a 16 year drought with that in place. Especially in a conference that has generally been wide open. We’ve had no Patrick Mahomes to compete with. No Tom Brady (except for a very short time). Meanwhile, the Sam Darnolds and Nick Foles of the world are getting there. Drake Maye, in his second season. This isn’t an indictment of Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love but rather an indictment of an organization that is by and large, failing them.
-
A lot more teams would be on the list if we included “shoulda, but failed when we had a chance.” Lions, Bills, Saints, Jags, to name a few. 49ers, Chiefs, and even Patriots would be on this list numerous more times.
-
Super Bowl appearances since our most recent: Seahawks 3 Patriots 6 Chiefs 5 Eagles 3 49ers 3 Broncos 2 Rams 2 Bucs Bengals Falcons Panthers Ravens Giants It is not as hard as we make it out to be. It should not be this hard for an organization that seems to have an internal belief and belief among their fanbase that they are very well-run. It should not be this hard for an organization that has benefited from high end QB play for almost this entire stretch.
-
The Cardinals blew numerous late leads under Gannon’s watch the past few years. Seems to me that he should be a seamless fit for our culture.
-
I’m not sure exactly what he’d be right now, but I agree he probably wouldn’t be anywhere near what he’s produced in Seattle. Still wish we had him, obviously.
-
Picking top 2-4 is a great dream but statistically highly unlikely to happen, since both us and New Orleans would have to hit the top 4 lottery spots. New Orleans looks like a decent bet for top 4 but obviously no sure thing. We are much more of a long shot but in this case we would need both of us to win the draw. We are I think 10th from the bottom in record. If we could slip to maybe 6th which is totally possible than we can at least assure a top 6-8 pick.
-
Or a Jets fan.
-
“We’re never going to be replaced by AI robots as football players.” Great take, Tom.
-
Absolutely insanely stupid penalty. This is not Detroit, man. This is the Super Bowl.
-
Well, get used to it. I haven’t heard a peep about us moving on from Bisaccia.
-
Average is rewarded in Green Bay with a contract extension. It’s been made very clear that as long as we can fill the stadium and be able to point to teams like the Jets and Browns and say “see those guys have it WAY worse”, we aren’t going to rock the boat much with the front office.
-
Wow, good for Patriot fans, has to be so rewarding to see their team finally make it back, So deserved, can’t imagine how tough the dark ages of 2022-2024 were for them after the Brady/Bellichick era. Next time someone utters the words, “Packer fans are so spoiled,” I’m going to move to Boston so I can be as spoiled as they say I am.
-
If the Packers even win their conference next year that will be 16 seasons between Super Bowl appearances. “Modern era” is obviously subjective. But for perspective, the current drought is longer than the Mike Holmgren to Mike McCarthy Super Bowl drought.
-
I don’t know much about Gannon other than he seemed to be a really bad HC. But I’m assuming he must have been a pretty good DC to get that gig in the first place. Hopefully one of those much better coordinator than coach types,
-
I can’t imagine any more Bucks move than trading our 2031 to try to cling to the play-in tournament. How is this the only Wisconsin sports team in the modern era to win a championship? Because they’re by far the most poorly run.

Peralta and Myers traded for Jett Williams and Sproat

It didn’t last for the long haul, but 2005 and 2006 Bill Hall was the gold standard for “utility player”. -
Peralta and Myers traded for Jett Williams and Sproat
adambr2 replied to torts's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Woodruff, Miz, Priester, and Patrick all look like locks or near locks for the rotation to me. So that’s maybe one open spot for one of Henderson, Sprout, and Gasser. Maybe they look for a Quintana veteran type for camp, but I don’t think they have a depth problem. -
Peralta and Myers traded for Jett Williams and Sproat
adambr2 replied to torts's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
They got that, no? Jett and Sprout both are MLB ready players. Jett should primarily play SS and CF. Assuming Chourio is going to play more in the corners going forward, SS and CF are probably our two biggest areas of need for improvement in the lineup.
