I see a difference between being upset after a loss, and just being negative. If anything perhaps this little sidebar will result in more actual discussion about players and plays of the games and less, Fire Ted, Fire Mike, Fire Dom, Rodgers sucks.

Since I've been watching the Packers for over 40 years (shut up, yes i'm gettin old) I tend to take each win & loss with a grain of salt. My God people, I'm a Packer fan in ILLINOIS!!! I went years of just hoping we'd beat the Bears at least once in any given season so I could put on my Packers shirt & finally get a chance to gloat!! Maybe it's come with my age but let's be honest here guys - it's a game, not the end of the freakin world, not the reason to have your day ruined - life goes on. I understand getting annoyed during game chats & like Zero said in the first 24 hours post game but then - I let it go.

Now, having said all that...I can get pissed as hell when we lose, frustrated at the play calling, annoyed with the coaches, & yes, even the players!!! Don't they know we're supposed to win every damn game?!?

Every year 31 out of 32 teams go home without a ring, to be honest the Packers are held to such a high standard year after year that you are more guilty of your unrealistic expectations than anything. Marino was probably a better Qb than Favre or Rodgers and he never won shit.

Ease up on your kids btw, or good luck when they pick your retirement home down the road 🤣

My guess is the Super Bowl winner will be within these 8 teams:

Falcons
Broncos
Packers
Steelers
Patriots
Chiefs
Raiders
Cowboys


I would say those same legit team numbers exist every year. We have had the best QB or top 3 QB in the league for almost 25 years now. I would say that the odds were in our favour to have more than 2 friggin' rings to show for it. Do I love that we win and am I spoiled? You are damn right, but man when the eventual suck happens I am really going to wish we did more when we had two of the biggest game changers in the league as our QBs.

That being said, let's look at your list and how many super bowls they've won in the last 25 years when we've had a top 2 or 3 QB.

Falcons - 0
Broncos - 3
Packers - 2
Steelers - 2
Patriots - 5
Chiefs - 0
Raiders - 0
Cowboys - 3

So basically we've had a top 2 or 3 QB every year (debatable but definitely top 5) for 25 years and we're the #4 team in super bowl rings. Isn't that damned close to where we should be at?

Unfortunately a team like the Patriots gives this false sense of it being easy to win a Super Bowl. When we look back in a few decades, maybe then people will appreciate the insane dominance that team has exhibited and appreciate it.

Winning a Super Bowl also takes good fortune and a little luck.
