We play the Bucs next game.

We play 3 teams that are under .500 in our next 4 games.

The way the team played in the second half.

I will probably get bashed for this but i don't really care. Desmond Bishop is finally seeing playing time.

+1 Thanks for that. And it's sad to say that some of those posts are negative as well. But I'm glad to see some of us still think positively.

Thanks to pack93z for the sig!!!

The Favre in Minnesota thing makes this year harder on Packer fans than it might be otherwise - those two games were over-hyped by almost everyone and are being overblown as well. They could still improve on last year, and I'm hopeful that they will.

+1 for this. That's why I've said so many times that for me -- and for everyone, particularly our team -- it should be just another game. Too bad too many people blew it up into something it should not have been.

Here is my positive---We have the best fans of all sports, minus a few debbie downers. I don't know about you guys, but when the ENTIRE crowd was chanting DRIVER when he was injured, it sent chills down my spine, and I was just watching from home. It was an amazing sight to see, and I wish it would get more attention than it has gotten.

God didn't create Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers created God.

Tramon Williams has emerged big time. Yes he had a great showing last year, but he struggled when moved outside in place of Woodson.

This year, Tramon is essentially our third starting CB - playing outside and letting Woodson move to Nickel and have the freedom to do different things.

His name has gone unmentioned (in terms of penalties, being out of position, etc.) and that is a good thing in this case.

Haven't heard Bush's name in some time.
I like the defense overall. People rag on them, but they come up big. You can't stop any team in the NFL if they keep getting the ball at midfield. That's just not even possible.
Clay Mathews is a beast, and he's just gonna get better.
We got to see Bishop a bit, although he was exposed in coverage a bit, which admittedly is his weakness.
Our defense is great at getting turnovers.

Aaron Kampman is back to rushing more, great job by Capers there.

Holy crap is Aaron Rodgers amazing.

Loved the emotion and tenacity of Ahman Green, can't wait to see what he can do.

How our team responded from first half to second half in last night's game was great!!! Every single one of us should take pride in that. I don't care if it ended in a double digit loss, our guys DID NOT QUIT.

Our guys really don't ever quit. That is a huge positive.
We're quite healthy compared to last year, too. Knock on wood.

New positives:

- We got a rookie LT that might turn out to be a starter.

- We got a rookie fullback that does a excellent job at blocking

- People dont know havner yet so they dont cover him; and looks like he can catch a ball.

- 3-4 D is working quite well. We are still getting the kinks out; but doing much better stopping the run. 10th on rush yards ... up from 25th (Ill take that!)

- (btw did you notice more press coverage vs the vikings; I hope we continue with that; harris and woodson excel at this).

- We have a new rookie pass rusher named matthews. I was a big skeptic because of the cost involved in getting matthews this pre-season. I said I was going to compare his stats and play to sintem ... scratch that. I dont even need to compare (let alone dont even know if sintem is playing). Matthews kicks butt and takes names.

- Jolly and jenkins and pickett are turning out to be quite the linemen in this new 3-4. Never thought these guys would shine this well.

- Driver is a stud. plane and simple

- Finley; he made a believer out of me. Glad he is our TE.

- Green isnt too bad. Like to see more of him on some screens
