Expectations post shake-up

[XPack]

So, we've all been good kids and Santa has been kind to us.

What is your expectation going forward from new management (GM, DC etc)?

For me,

- a bit more activity in FA.
- Some contract restructuring to include more performance related bonus and less guarantee stuff. (Should incentivize Clay, Cobb etc)
- Improvements in defensive side?

Superbowl win in 2018-19 season?

Anything else?

 

[Patrick J. Costello]

SB within 3 yrs. and get a viable back up QB who could be legit heir.
Rebuild on D. Pay cuts and cuts. Receivers, LB and Safety.

 

[Pokerbrat2000]

Looking at next year's schedule of opponents, could be a tough year on the road, having to travel to Los Angeles, Seattle and New England. As long as #12 stays healthy, I am optimistic. A new GM and DC even heightens my optimism even more.

2018 OPPONENTS

• HOME: Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, Minnesota Vikings, Arizona Cardinals, San Francisco 49ers, Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, Atlanta Falcons

Yeah, that road schedule could be brutal. But we get Atlanta at home, whoohoo!

 

[Pokerbrat2000]

The home schedule looks relatively "easy". Although I thought that this year.

Hope we get Miami and Atlanta in December, but knowing the schedule makers, they will give the warm weather teams a break and bring them here in Sept/Oct. but have no issues with sending the Packers to Jacksonville or Miami in the heat of September.

If Santa was drunk and gives us Russ Ball as GM we're in the same boat, sinking faster.

But a financially sound boat

Expectations?

I expect that I'll be sitting around watching guys in the know right the listing ship. Since I don't know doodly-squat about running a multi-billion dollar organization, I'll expect them to do the job.

Whoda thunk a semi-literate linebacker for the Minnesota Vikings could bring down an NFL GM VP of Football Operations.

 

[gbgary]

expectations? it could only get better after last year.

 

[7thFloorRA]

I expect MM to retain his buddy Lovat and the Packers to thus lead professional sports in hamstring and groin pulls for the 5th consecutive season.

 

[Packer96]

Next year with healthy AR we make the playoffs. He wins the first game and MM gets out coached in the second.

 

[Packer Brother]

Next year with healthy AR we make the playoffs. He wins the first game and MM gets out coached in the second.

Unless they lose a close NFCCG and/or SB, I think MM is gone next season. Rodgers only has a few years left. It's time to get that SB ring by any means necessary.

As always, (1) just because you, or anyone else, hasn't done something, doesn't mean you couldn't and (2) the guys who put the ship in this condition were 'in the know'.

No fair - too easy.

Yeah, at Goff, at Brady, at Wilson. And you could see a resurging Redskins team with Cousins as well. That, along with our normal division road slate could definitely be challenging.

I feel very comfortable with our home schedule. We really need to protect Lambeau field next year. That game with Jimmy G could present some issues especially if it's an early season game. And obviously the Falcons.

This has the ability to go so wrong so fast if the Pack hire the wrong guy.

This could be an ESPN 30 for 30 if **** hits the fan fast.
"What if I told you one broken collar bone started the downfall of a Football team". ESPN presents a 30 for 30 "Broken Collarbone".

I agree, but it could be that broken collar bone that finally gives the Packer organization the push they apparently needed to make changes that could actually do some real good.

Change can be scary for some and yes, it could go the wrong way. However, I don't think we could get much worse on defense, TT's time was nearing an end and now it is up to the powers to be to figure out who is best to take over the reins. I'm pretty confident that this is pretty well mapped out already and its just a matter of narrowing it down to THE guy (or gal of course )

 

[Pokerbrat2000]

There was a rumor that captainWIMM was seen landing in Green Bay this morning, you don't think do you?

Heh, you can bet there'd be a whole lot of shaking up to come.

Oh, I could... I'm brilliant...just ask me, I'll tell ya.

Sure they were "in the know" - however, they didn't set out to knowingly make decisions that would mess things up for the team in the event Aaron would be injured... I don't believe that is anyone's assertion.

 

[Jed12]

I just want whoever steps in at GM to address the pass rush and pass catching issues...

Past that a winning season with playoff football again as it still doesn’t feel right waiting for the draft at this point....
