The Packers are our toughest oppopnent every week. Glib answer? maybe. But in all honesty who knows who the toughest oopponent is going to be unless we are only measuring by what a team looks like on paper. In that case I would then have to say the Cowboys or Jets.

Indeed.

So many factors with nothing but training camp to scope them with.

Patriots @ Gillette sounds tasty.I am very tempted to grab a ticket.

Patriots, it's an away game vs the best QB on our schedule. Cowboys and Giants are both home games and I don't think the Jets really match up that well against us because of our run D and their QB.

In conference - Minnesota.

Out of conference - toss between 49ers and Jets

I'll say teams will good pass rushes which are the Vikings, Jets, Giants, Cowboys and maybe the Bears and Lions.

I think the Jets and 49ers could be toughest because the Packers weakness are at the linemen and the Jets and 49ers have some pretty good physical linemen that might make it a long day for the Packers linemen.

Ok I am going to say the toughest game on the schedule will be the Lions on Dec 12th. Before you laugh let me explain.

First point is the Lions should be much improved and they will have a very tough d-line and possibly the rookie of the year in Best. They also have one of the best wrs in the game with Calvin Johnson.

The main point is the time of the year, They will have just gotten done playing most likely the division leading 49ers and their tough defense and looking foward to a very tough game at New England.

A close 2nd would be the Atlanta game just because of the schedule, just get done with an emotional game with the Vikes and Favre and having the 49ers next.

Ok now you can start laughing but I am trying to be serious

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
