While I have been through some major disappointments in the playoffs, this one really hurts. For some reason, I just knew we were going to the Super Bowl this year, and it felt that way all season long to me (although I had a bad feeling about this game for some reason). Making this even worse, our window to win a Super Bowl may have closed with the cap situation.
It is going to be an interesting off season. I personally think the Super Bowl window has closed for a while unless Adams wants to take a 1-year team friendly deal so that he can win a Super Bowl in Green Bay, and I think the chances of that is highly unlikely. Even then, we would have to find a way to maneuver contracts to get under the cap to be able to keep the rest of the key players, which I am not sure is even possible this time, unlike last year.
Not sure what Rodgers is going to do. He could retire, which is the worst-case scenario for us because he won't be playing for us, nor would we get anything in return. If it does come down to keeping Rodgers and Adams or the core of the team, I choose keeping the core of the team because I think you can build around that. We are not going to be good regardless and are looking at a rebuild either way with a down year or two at the very least in this scenario anyway.
