Trent Dilfer won a SB.

Hell, Joe Flacco won one. And look what happened to Aaron's team this past January.

Anything's possible.

We aren't the Giants of old who could win with Jeff Hostetler. Our team is Aaron Rodgers for the most part.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

However, Uffda gave reasons why it's highly unlikely for Tolzien to lead the Packers to the SB this coming season.
Could he be good enough to do it in the future? Maybe.
I just don't see it as a strong possibility now.

Maybe our defense will FINALLY start doing it's part, and take some of the pressure off our offense. That would be a nice change of pace, wouldn't it?

Tolzien has looked fine in preseason, and in fact looked decent back in '13, when allowed to throw mid-to deep range. What killed him was Mike's propensity to coach scared, which resulted in repeatedly forcing short throws, such as the one that JPP called out in the defensive huddle before he pick 6'd it.

I'll say the same thing here that I said when Barclay got his first start, and everyone thought the season was over. LET'S SEE HOW HE DOES. IT AIN'T OVER.

Blocking users is just plain childish...I may want to block about 80% of the things I read here but it's all part of the experience.

The defense gets way too much blame. The packers forced 4 turnovers and pitched a shutout in the first half against seattle. Yet the MVP and the packers offense only score 16 points in the first half.

At any rate, if Tolzien had to win some games, he'd be surrounded by weapons. Let's just say I'm not living in fear.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?
