NFC North Discussion

[epo]

As the rest of these dorks talk about their "football" teams, lets talk real football in the old black & blue division.

To start the discussion, I'll give you my predictions:

1. Packers (11-5)
2. Vikings (10-6)
3. Bears (7-9)
4. Lions (4-12)

What, giving up on the Brew Crew already?

Your head is in the clouds, my friend. I think this Favre thing is going to fuck with the Pack big time this year. Minnesota smells like that preseason overrated team in the NFC - in the AFC it's the Browns - and the Lions? What would a football season be like if the Lions didn't suck? Bring back Wayne Fontes is what I say.

So, here's a more realistic prediction for the NFC Yah Hey Dere division:

1. Bears (10-6) You'll see.
2. Vikings (9-7)
3. Packers (8-8)
4. Lions (5-11)

What does that mean? It is not a #1 story when the Bears tank this year. When Grossman breaks his arm in the third game, Orton will drive them to end of the season with an average score of 9 per game.

The North is pretty weak with Favre gone.

When do they play the Vikes, Juggy? That is usually when Rex's season ends.

I think that it has happened twice. I may be wrong though.

Lock this Pathetic thread up.

The only person in the world worth talking about is out of your division. Since he is gone, the whole Division has been folded. There is no more reason to live or play football in the NFC north, or the Midwest period.

[disneyspy]

the lions will win at least 2 games this year cuz we still play chicago,2 more cuz we wont get farved anymore,and theyll win half of the rest.10 and 6 wins the divsion,dont care the other teams records

[epo]

Are you really that confident in Rodgers, or are you confident that the rest suck that bad?

The North is pretty weak with Favre gone.

Both. I think the rest of the division isn't that great at QB and I have a bit of confidence in Rodgers. Let's look at the QBs:

GB: Aaron Rodgers
Minn: Tavaris Jackson
Chi: Neck Beard/Rex Grossman
Det: John Kitna

Why would that make anyone fear those other teams?

That is exactly what I was thinking, so I have no clue what is going to happen this year. Maybe Lions, but you know....they're the Lions.

[Jughead]

I was trying to go to other divisions to see who there Q-B's were... To kinda show a lot are weak...But Epo is right I dont think there is a division as weak at that position as the North...I could not find any neck beards either....:tongue:..GO BEARS!!!

[Snoogans]

I saw 2 people pick the bears to win 9 games. I REALLY dont see that happening, whether you start Rex or Neckbeard. I just dont see it. Maybe like 4-12 id guess

The bears third sting guy played pretty good Thursday....Of course it was against K.C's 50th string... But he threw over 100 yards I think...I listened to it on the radio. I caught the highlights on espn Fri...My typing skills suck BEAR with me...:tongue:

[cougarjake13]

Are you really that confident in Rodgers, or are you confident that the rest suck that bad?

The North is pretty weak with Favre gone.


which makes it anyones division


with favre leading the pack they were almost a sure guarantee to win the division again and depending on how good or bad the west turned out another first round bye

and with his stupid INT in OT against the giants away from making it back to the super bowl i couldnt believe he retired in the 1st place

i mean the pack returned all the key players from last year plus whoever they signed in the offseason and draft while i dont recall the vikes, bears, or lions doing anything substantial ... so why he retired i have no effing idea

so baring any major injuries favre and the pack had a very good chance at being back in the nfc championship again this year



so with no favre i cant really say how this division will turn out save for the fact that the lions will prob be dead last

but i guess you have to look at it this way

rodgers only has to be better than

tavaris jackson- vikings
orton/grossman - bears
kitna- lions

[epo]

After one quarter of meaningless preseason football I am declaring Aaron Rodgers to be the best QB in the division, hands down.

Not a chance. He doesn't seem to grasp the passing game very well, and for such a touted athlete he doesn't seem to run as well as expected.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Im expecting the Vikings to win 9 games this year

if they had WRs or a Stud QB, they would be a division winning playoff team

[RhinoinMN]

All they need is an above average QB. The WR's are good enough considering their exceptional run attack. They are usually open, but nobody to get the ball to them.

My earliest football memory, was when Dad took me to Veteran's Stadium, Eagles vs. Bears, we had seats right above the tunnel. After the game, the teams filed out of the stadium, and I can still hear Jaws jumping up and down slapping the guys on their backs and screaming "IT'S ALL ABOUT PENETRATION, BOYS!!!"


At least that's the way I remember it.

Rodgers is showing the world what he has tonight.

where it goes from here? who knows.... but he had some HUGE shoes to fill... and he is proving he can do it tonight.

Packers extend Rodgers' contract through 2014 (http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packers/33650499.html)

The Green Bay Packers said this afternoon that they have signed quarterback Aaron Rodgers to a long-term contract extension through the 2014 season.

"As we talked about in the past, we try to be proactive in our discussions with our current players and we felt like this was an appropriate time to try to come to an agreement with Aaron," said General Manager Ted Thompson. "We feel like this is good for the organization and the players, and we will continue this approach as we move forward."

I guess that takes care of that issue.

The Green Bay Packers release all-time sacks leader Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila. (http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packers/33692169.html)

The Green Bay Packers released defensive end Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila and activated defensive tackle Justin Harrell in a series of moves today.

“We want to thank Kabeer for his contributions to the Green Bay Packers,” general manager Ted Thompson said in a news release. “During his time here, he has been a big part of our organization and our community. We wish Kabeer and his family well.”

In nine seasons with the Packers, Gbaja-Biamila appeared in 124 career games, including 74 starts. He is the franchise’s all-time sacks leader with 74½, having passed Reggie White (68½) in 2007.

Damn, I always liked KGB. A great guy in person too. So goes the NFL.

Maybe the Jets can sign him and he can bitch about the franchise, and give d-schemes to the Bears

Are you joking...The defense was on the field so much is why you remember that so much.......Sure I know there is a problem there but not the run defense today....... But Rex over threw people and was about as bad as I have ever seen him....When he did have a man open the ball was behind or above them....That throw to Hester...Let me correct that.. the OVER THROW to Hester could have changed the momentum of the game...Not to mention the 3 that were not picked off because of pure luck.. The last one should have been a touchdown for Tenn........Grossman SUCKS....Sorry.....

Grossman is what he is. He's not going to succeed with the porous offensive line they have and the shitty running plays Turner keeps coming out with. He has his obvious flaws, but the Bears seem to be doing everything possible to not capitalize on his strengths, or they're unable to. No, he didn't go out there and do a great job, but he basically did what you could optimisitcally hope out of him given the realities of how flawed this team is and wih him having been relegated to backup. The defense was on the field so much because they were letting Collins throw at will from the start and let them pull off 7 3rd down conversions.

Adding injury to insult:

Packers LB Nick Barnett tears ACL
(http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packers/34209389.html)
The knee injury linebacker Nick Barnett suffered is to his anterior cruciate ligament, which is one of the most common tears among football players.

Coach Mike McCarthy confirmed on his afternoon radio show on WTMJ that it was an ACL tear. In general, that injury requires six to eight months of rehabilitation once surgery is performed.

I believe it will be a group effort, somewhat of a class action. All the players will file suit against the NFL for non-disclosure of the banned substance. I would hope that NFL wouldn't enforce the suspensions until after this is all resolved, but that may not be the case.

from what i heard and read the stuff they used didnt use to have the banned substance and was ok for use by the nfl


then the company making it changed ingredients but the nfl didnt do anything to let the players know and thought it was still ok to use



if true that'd be fucked up if goodell suspends them
