Can the Green Bay Packers make a Super Bowl Run next year if Brett comes back and the team stays healthy?

Answer 1

If they plug some key holes with dynamic rookies or veterans who are still in their prime, there's no reason to think they won't. Especially as weak as the NFC has been lately.

Primarily, they need a DE to complement Aaron Kampman because KGB is nothing more than a situational pass rusher. Cullen Jenkins might be that guy; we just don't know as he's only started at DE once (plus he's an unrestricted free agent after this year, so there's no telling if we'll even keep him).

Secondly, they still need to replace Javon Walker. I like Greg Jennings, but he's another Donald Driver. I love Driver, but we need a big deep threat. Calvin Johnson (Ga Tech) might be the guy (if he falls to them).

Thirdly, they could use a big, fat DT to complement Ryan Pickett. Where have you gone, Gilbert Brown? If their two DTs could occupy the O-line's three middle blockers, that'd help plug some running lanes as well as leave the DEs with single blocks on at least one side.

Otherwise the LBs are solid, and the CBs are outstanding (though aging), though the safeties are inconsistent. Favre is fine, and the O-line has been playing progressively better all season.

Answer 2

Yes....Brett still has the athletic ability (i.e. the arm, legs and head) to play the game and be a top 10 quarterback and lead a team to a Super Bowl. He is also playing on the youngest team in the NFL and they still have a chance to finish 8-8 and maybe make the playoffs. That only confirms what Brett said at the beginning of the season ("this is the most talented team I have ever played with"). They are full of young talent that is beginning to get better as the year progresses and they will be better next year. If key players return and the Packers sign a couple of good free agents they will be a tough team to beat next year. The playoffs are a guarantee if Brett returns and no other team would want to see Brett there with this team, it would be scary.

Answer 3

First of all that one guy is right about the line. they are young and they are good as a unit, without one of them the whole line suffers. Their linebackers in a year or 2 will be pretty close to the best linebacking core in the nfl. Unfortunately with al harris and charles woodson not getting any younger they are going to need to find corners fast, also need to watch out for nick collins. great player, but is injury prone. D-line is lead by Aaron Kampman who is a monster, average DT's, and an aging KGB. Favre is old i will admit, and he is no where near where he used to be, but to tell you the truth is anyone ever gonna be a consecutive 3 time MVP and start 200 some odd games in a row. Maybe Peyton but thats another story. Favre in his old age is just as good as the rookie QB, he'll make big plays some of the time, and big mistakes most of the time, but he has what a rookie QB doesn't, and thats experience. You just gotta remember who is starting for the packers when favre leaves (rodgers) that will last a whole 2 years before he goes in the shitter. ahman green has over stayed his welcome in Green Bay, its time to move on. recievers are very limited. We have donald driver, who is only so good because he is the only reciever favre can throw to. Jennings will be a good reciever for years to come, but if the packers want a super bowl run they need depth. After that novel I say the packers will go 9-7 next year and finish 7th in the NFC just missing the playoffs, and that will end the favre era.

Answer 4

definite....Brett nonetheless has the athletic skill (i.e. the arm, legs and head) to play the sport and be a suitable 10 quarterback and lead a collection to a brilliant Bowl. he's likewise playing on the youngest group in the NFL and that they nonetheless have a gamble to end 8-8 and in line with threat make the playoffs. That basically confirms what Brett pronounced on the beginning up of the season ("it somewhat is the main proficient group I even have ever performed with"). they're packed with youthful skills this is placing out to get greater effective because of the fact the 12 months progresses and that they are going to be greater effective next 12 months. If key gamers return and the Packers sign a pair of sturdy unfastened brokers they are going to be a tricky group to conquer next 12 months. The playoffs are a assure if Brett returns and no different group could desire to be sure Brett there with this group, it may be frightening.

Answer 5

Yes they can. The offensive line is young but are gelling at the right time. I believe that Ahmand Green still has a year or two left in his legs to be great and with the O-line healthly and gelling that would take pressure off of Brett Favre to be the all that he feels that he needs to be. A few yound recievers are looking good. So yes they can make a run. Like be 10-6 and win a first weekned game and beyond. Remember it is still the NFC and alot of teams have alot of questions.

Answer 6

Green Bay's coach deserves coach of the year. That team is PAINFULLY bad, and yet he somehow has them alive for a wild-card spot.

Favre needs to shelf his selfishness, and retire. The Packers have a #2 overall draft pick (with accompanying money, no less) riding the bench for the 2d straight year, and has thrown around 15 passes in his pro career.

Favre doesn't hear whispers of retirement, he hears SHOUTS and JEERS. I'm not a Packer "hater" at all, but enough is enough.

Answer 7

Ask any psychotic packer fan and they will tell you yes. It's pathetic watching the games and hearing over and over how every bad play is someone elses fault but Brett's. The guy WAS a great quarterback. Now he is just a guy with an over-inflated ego who can't let go with fans who actually have depression issues when the packers lose.
I wish I was kidding.....listen to radio shows here in Wisconsin the day after a loss....it's so sad it's scary.

Answer 8

I don't think so. Brett has his good times but they are never the same as the rest of the team.

Answer 9

You can't be serious. They could have their whole roster healthy all season and they still wouldn't be that good. The Packers should beat a .500 team before anyone thinks about the playoffs.

Answer 10

Sure, hell hasn't frozen over yet. Favre is one of the best ever, but his days are over. He should have retired a couple years ago. The answer to your question is no. They need a lot of help in other areas.
