It's been a great year but,

With Aaron Rodgers coming back the rest of the NFL should just mail it in.

  Return of star quarterback means Green Bay is capable of beating any opponent

 

The more intriguing question is what they are capable of once the playoffs begin. Even in a stacked NFC, there isn't a team that Green Bay can't beat with Rodgers in the lineup. They were 5-2 before he broke his collarbone in a 27-20 loss to Chicago on Nov. 4, with both losses coming on the road to playoff teams (a 34-28 defeat at San Francisco and a 34-30 loss at Cincinnati). They've also shown plenty of heart to stay alive the past three weeks, particularly in overcoming a 23-point halftime deficit in a 37-36 win over Dallas on Dec. 15

All they are saying (at least from what I read) is the GB is capable of winning in the NFC playoffs. With a healthy Rogers, the Packers ARE a dangerous team.

Rogers makes them much better and they are capable if beating anyone with him in there. They did not say there isn 'to a team they won't beat...just that there isn't a team that they can't beat.

I don't think this is a slight on any other team.

Quite frankly, I see the NFCE winner and the Saints on the road as the only two teams in the NFC playoffs that can't make it to the SB.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
