You guys can sugar coat the Bears defense all you want to. 27 points and we took our foot off their neck with our play calling decisions. What pisses me off is the pass by the media for Urlacher and Briggs coming out and declaring they were the best team in the NFC. That's bullshit.

We do not get the respect we deserve, whether we want it or not.

I think the Packers get plenty of respect. They just don't get as much press as they would if they were in a larger market or if they had more of a soap opera atmosphere, as some other teams do. I don't have any complaints at this point.

Yeah, they get quite a bit of praise, especially on NFL Network. We have been the #1 team in the power rankings all season and many view Rodgers as a top 2 or 3 QB in the NFL. Capers gets mad respect and we are viewed as having the most talented offense in the league as well as insane depth. Ted Thompson is viewed as one of the best GMs. Our backup QB has often been viewed and likely still will be as a potential future starter. We overcame massive injuries last season and still won the super bowl, a story that is discussed over and over. The only member of the Green Bay Packers don't doesn't get enough media love in Mike McCarthy, and even that's quickly changing.

No press confernces about beating down the Bears. No expert analysis of why we will continue to crush them.

I wouldn't have it any other way.

Thompson builds the team with smart solid and not very exciting moves. Drafting talent and taking overlooked talent wherever he can find it.

The players all say the sanitized and correct thing.

Even the Coach is a mumbly, boring, dull guy at the podium with nothing but stock phrases.

The most animated Mike McCarthy got was when someone asked him about going into New England as an underdog. He kind of bristled and showed his teeth a little when he said "We're nobody's underdog" and it was over. No rants, no tirade. Just a simple statement of fact.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

I think you are mixing together two different things: respect and attention. The Packers get tons of respect. They get a little shortchanged on attention because they play in a small market, and they don't have a lot of drama. That's just the way things are, and I'm fine with it. The last time they got more than their share of attention was in the summer of 2008 when Favre tried to come back to the team. I didn't enjoy that at all.

I really don't get the "not enough attention" argument. I mostly watch NFL Network, and they get plenty of positive attention. No, we don't get the negative attention that many teams like Dallas and the Jets do, and that's great. It is what it is, negative publicity. I've thought several times while hearing people praise the packers how sick other teams must get of hearing about us.

It's all good to me.

As long as 🇹🇹 and 🇲🇲 and everyone else keep building a winning team that gets the occasional Lombardi, I'm happy. (Well, I'll be happier when we have more Lombardis than the stupid Steelers).

Actually, I wish we'd get a lot less respect. I didn't even hit Vegas this year because our odds sucked. It wouldn't even be worth the trip.
