Jameis Winston needs just three more interceptions in the final 6.5 quarters of his season to break Favre’s all-time interception record. 
 

Favre did it in 2005 with Robert Ferguson, Rod Gardner and Koren Robinson as his receivers.  Will Whiticker I think as a starting guard.  Samkon Gado as his RB.

The Buccaneers are just crazy to me.  They're down by 14, now it's tied.  Winston was like 5/13 for 46 yards and 3 interceptions, and now he's passed for 198 yards plus a TD since then. 

I have never actually watched a Buccs game and I have to imagine they're one of the more exciting offenses in the NFL.  I just cannot fathom having a quarterback in this era of the NFL (where receivers are protected, quarterbacks are protected and it has literally never been harder for pass rushers or defensive backs to) to have turned the ball over 32 times with 6 quarters left on the year.  

He has had a SINGLE game all year in which he has not turned the ball over.

The Bucs with a healthy Evans and Godwin are a fun team to watch.  Reckless QB with excellent WR's.  A perfect match for the Arians offense.

So ...

Reckless QB and Excellent WR =  7-8

Overly Conservative QB and Weak WR = 11-3

Its possible we strike three home runs in a row but the likelihood is, the people asking for Packers to get a new QB are going to be get the mother and father of all wake-up calls one day. You don't know what you've got till its gone.

Winston truly is a modern day Lynn Dickey, right down to the great set of WR's and talented TE.  The thing is, the Dickey years weren't all bad, and some of them were kind of fun.  Watching the post-Rodgers Packers hit rock bottom could be kind of interesting just for the opportunity to see how GB fans who have never experienced a truly terrible team would react.  As a kid watching the Packers in the late 70's - early 80's, it never occurred to me that some day the Packers might actually be good.  Now I've seen 2 SB wins.  It's all gravy from here as far as I'm concerned.  More SB wins would be nice, but I'm good either way.

If I had a dollar for every time somebody on this forum boasted about having watched an awful packer team back in the day, while they pontificate about how badly younger fans will react to the team becoming mediocre, I would have enough money to buy this forum from Webby and make doing so a bannable offense.
