Are you excited?

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has turned R-E-L-A-X into a catchphrase of sorts over the years, but that's not the message he's sending to the team's fans ahead of the 2017 season. Rodgers noted how the team played offensively down the stretch last season and the additions of tight end Martellus Bennett and Lance Kendricks while...

I'm excited about the offense, I think great things are possible in 2017.
Like Aaron Rodgers I think they need a couple (maybe more) pieces on the defensive side of the ball.

The last time Aaron got his way, Tom Clements was made play caller.

I hope you were all excited then too.

Well....I wasn't concerned with the offense in the first place.
The best offense in the league can't be expected to carry the team in EVERY game.
We need some real playmakers on defense as well if we want a super bowl win.
I AM excited about the coming season.,.,of course i always am excited about the Packers.

Personally I like that the offense has something to prove.

It was nice to see Ted Thompson be a bit more active in FA this year with swapping Cook for Bennett and adding Kendricks to the TE mix. We have some depth concerns at RB and OG now after the major parts of FA have played out. My guess is we probably look at drafting a RB in the first three rounds to split some carries with Montgomery unless they add a veteran back like AD who really doesn't fit the scheme very well anyways.

Unfortunately the defense is still suspect too. I don't think moving on from Peppers was a huge loss given his downturn in play and limited pitch count each game and they had to keep Perry who at least showed last season when he's healthy he can contribute. I don't think his deal was completely out of whack for what a guy of his production and what he would've received on the open market this year.

Adding some depth with House and RJ Francois were some good moves, but success on D to me is going to come down to health, Matthews coming back and being able to primarily play on the outside and be effective there, Martinez and Ryan being able to handle the bulk of the ILB snaps so Clay can stay on the outside, and hope the sophmore slumps Randall and Rollins went through last year aren't a reflection of their long term play for us at CB, especially having moved on from Shields whose career maybe over at this point.

Won't be excited as long as Dom remains defensive coordinator unless we have at least 6 or 7 guys on D having a pro bowl level season.

Zero2Cool (23h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (23h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.

dfosterf (27-Mar) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
dfosterf (27-Mar) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (27-Mar) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers halt scheduled 80mil upgrade of stadium until lease agreement talks are restarted
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : City of Green Bay puts Packers' Lambeau Field lease talks on hold

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
