[QUOTE="broguy, post: 633054, member: 11278"] Dude, what? The point of this thread wasn't to say that the Packers are going to win the super bowl, it was to say that we shouldn't panic and jump ship quite yet. Two losses in late October/early November don't end your season. I pointed out that we played two tough defenses to say that our offense isn't as bad as it's looked for the past two weeks. No one said "We played two really good defenses so we'll be fine for the rest of the season." As for the "pathetic song and dance that's getting pathetic" (?), I think there's a huge difference between making the super bowl your goal vs your expectation. It's really hard to win a super bowl; you have to have a talented team peaking at the right time and you still need some good luck/favorable bounces. To say the team, coaches, management, and fans don't care about super bowl victories is ridiculous - it's why they all show up every season and it's why we watch. Whether or not you like our coaching staff or management, they've put us in position year in and year out to make the playoffs and compete for a super bowl. Making it to the playoffs isn't the "gold standard" but it's a pretty big piece of the puzzle. None of this is to say that you can't criticize McCarthy or Capers or Thompson. We were close last year, but I think we'd all agree that Rodgers should have more than one super bowl ring at this stage in his career.
