Just because the Niners are clearly better than everyone in the NFC, doesn't mean the Packers weren't a really good team as well. The Niners basically outclass everyone in the conference.

I mean, you clearly watched enough of the Packers this year to deduct that they are at best a 10-6 team. So I would love to hear what you think the Patriots adjusted record would look like.

Pretty sure most Pats fans didn't think they had a 12-4 worthy team eithe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty similar situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncofan Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 If the best counter to a statement that a team wasn’t as good as its record is to go after said poster’s home team, maybe there’s just merit to the original take. I say that with zero reason to have a thing but bias against the Pats as an AFC fan. It’s just pretty hard to argue against the take that GB’s 13-3 record was a mirage. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakuvious Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 For the record, the expected W/L for the Packers season this year, based on points scored and allowed, was 9.7-6.3. So statistically, they did look like a 10-6 team. A point differential of +63 is crazy low for a 13 win team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what he's saying though. Ignoring the scoreboard, the Packers had the look of a team that is good enough to win more games than they lose, but not particularly great at anything enough to really scare anybody. "10-6" seems fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playoff Rodgers showed up.. dudes been regressing a lot and it shows. He hsnt been the same bad dude in a good 4-5 years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from beating a tough division rival twice (Minnesota), is there really an impressive win on their 2019 schedule? The only time they were tested by a top team (San Francisco, Week 12) they got throttled 37-8. Not to toot my own horn but I saw this thumping coming from a mile away.

For the record, the expected W/L for the Packers this season this year based on swapping the result of all "close" (defined as a win probability between 40 and 60 anytime within the last 5 minutes of the game) games was 12-4. So, they did look like a 13-3 team that yielded significant garbage points to make final results appear closer than they actually were. SF was a terrible match-up, but GB did beat the AFC Super Bowl team on the road and 2/3 of the other NFC playoff teams they faced this season. The "lucky breaks and gift calls" narrative (not your's, I know) is utter nonsense and ignorant. @Elky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you see what he's throwing too outside of Adams? Packers need to get him another viable weapon in the passing game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
