What Has AdversityTaught Us About The Packer Roster?

When we go through difficult times we learn a lot about ourselves!  When our team, the Packers go through difficult times were learn a lot about our team!  What have we learned?

The Players
1 - Aaron Rogers is worth every cent we pay him!  The way I count, there are 32 teams in the NFL & only 4 QB's that can change a team into a champion - Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, & Aaron Rogers!  Aaron Rogers is the heart & soul of this team!

2 - Eddie Lacy - Eddie Lacy is an NFL running back!  He takes a hit it gets the all important YAC (Yards After Contact)!  He blocks - this is critical for our QB!  And he seems to be a quality person!  Something Ted Thompson seems to be pretty good at when drafting!  Starks & DuJuan Harris are more than adequate NFL backs, when healthy!

3 - When healthy, Nelson, Jones, Cobb & Finley are GOOD!  They complement each other & seem to be on the same wave length as Rogers!  And Jarrett Boykin is a KEEPER!  The last few weeks he has proven that!

4 - Offensive line is good & I think could be great, if healthy!  Bulaga, Sitton, Dietrich-Smith, Lang, Barclay or Sherrod!  They seem to enjoy run blocking & have given Rogers ample time!

THIS OFFENSE IS GOOD ENOUGH TO WIN ANOTHER SUPER BOWL! WHEN HEALTHY!

1 - Linebackers - AJ Hawk is having a great year!  Without him, we would be in trouble!  Matthews, when healthy, is one of the best!  The others are average at best!

2 - Defensive line - I think is OUR WEAKNESS!  The run stop is better, but, by themselves, NO PRESSURE on the quarterback!  This to me is Ted Thompson's biggest failure!  There are NO ATHLETES, maybe Datone Jones will improve, but the others are all average at best!  NEED A DIFFERENCE MAKER!

3 - Defensive backs - I think are better than they look, because of no pressure.  The corners Williams, Shields, House, etc.  The safeties are the weakness!  Bad ball skills, getting beat deep, poor tackling, what else can I say!

DEFENSE CANNOT CARRY THIS TEAM!  NEED TO DRAFT OR SIGH A FREE AGENT!
