Packer_ESP Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 You do realize that this defense lead a 13-3 team last year. An NFL team without a dominating QB. No matter how lucky you are, you don't get to 13-3 in the NFL with a poor defense. Especially if that team doesn't have an exceptional quarterback. It isn't the defense we wish we had, but the constant crapping on a winning defense is curious 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice work though, thx for the Cut & Paste template for 2020 Now we can re-use it for offense, defense, OL, DL, LB, RB, WR, DB in addition to QB and coaching.

MrBobGray Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 2 minutes ago, incognito_man said: who would you rather have had: Funchess or Sanders For the money Sanders got? Honestly Funchess. I like Sanders, but I wouldn't be thrilled paying $8 million a year for the next two years to a 33 year old, 5'11 190 lb receiver. Personally feel that when Sanders hits the wall, he's going to hit it hard and it's probably not far out. Funchess gives you the potential for a big hit if he plays up to his talent level with a more consistent QB, and even at his regular level of play he's cheap depth for what he can provide. Plus, if he really does hit and you want to sign him longterm he's only 26 and still has another contract in his prime in him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funchess is 25 with a lot of snaps under his belt . Sanders is 33 and is on the decline . He’s probably not the same since his torn Achilles .

Only way I see that working out is to spread out the signing bonus. I think Sanders is a better player right now and would help us more than Funchess. But given the contracts signed? Huge nod to Funchess. But if things were more equal in contract? Sanders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't the player he was 5 years ago, but the constant crapping on a winning QB is curious. It's not that Rodgers is BAD, he's just not AARON F***IN RODGERS anymore. The aggregate QB stat that I created had him around 11th in the league, which seems about right. At this point, he's more of an above average QB than an awesome QB. It's possible GB could push him higher with an improved WR corps, but it seems unlikely that we'll see that in 2020 given that they haven't made huge upgrades the group unless a rookie WR has a huge season.

hitnhope Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I largely agree. However there are a lot of teams with defenses better than the Packers that weren't able to get to 13-3. Reading this board, and the constant criticism would lead one to believe many think he now sucks. Like everyone on this board my hope is that with some added talent around him, and another year in the system we get the player back from earlier in his career.

Nobody thinks that and nobody has said that. Literally all the negativity towards Rodgers is that he isn't playing to his ability or his pay which IMO are fair arguments. I can't possibly believe there is a single poster here who honestly believes Rodgers played his best ball or outplayed his contract last year and yet when someone points out those things (which I again believe is a universally held opinion) it's being unfairly negative. I don't get it.🤷 Edited March 31, 2020 by wgbeethree 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
