I'm still not sure how this division is going to finish. I'm not a believer in the Packers being the best team in the division. The Vikings without Bridgewater is still a good team. The Lions looked decent but against a poor Colts team.
I don't see any dominant team in the division and think it may be the weakest it's been as a whole in a long time.

While they have Rogers, they are always a possibility to win. Right now, I'd still say they are the favorite, but that picture may change as more games are played and it can be more clearly seen what teams have improved, etc.

I feel we can top the division. Rodgers and the rest of tha Pack are getting a bit long in the tooth but so is Cutty. I am the most worried about the Lions. They are the wildcard I feel and worry 1 day they will click and they be on their way. They did get a few good WRs so Stafford will have no problems I think finding outlets to toss to. My big concern is Cuttys ribs. They looked like they took a pounding including a direct hit with a helmet. At 1 point you can see him clearing grimacing in pain after another whack. Cutty is a tough facker but as we all know......Age is a bitch to healing wounds.

Fackers defense may be questionable. I caught the Jags last drive. The Jags converted 3 fourth downs, drew a minor PI call to get a fourth, and finally got stopped on the fifth one. All with no timeouts. I'll have to watch the Fackers game (dvr) if I want to know more..

Packers are still the best in the division as long as Rodgers is playing. He can make an average team look great.
Packers without Rodgers is an average team at best. Their defense seems to be trash.
Vikings may or may not win the division.
I don't see this division being weak. Not with the Vikings defense or with Rodgers playing.

I see a few things wrong with your post here. You say the Packers are the best in the division yet would be average at best without Rodgers. That's not the sign of a good team. I think they are just above average with Rodgers now. They have a lot of weaknesses.
You say the Vikings may or may not win. No sh*t. The Bears may or may not win also. The Vikings have a great defense and I don't think the offense falls off much without Bridgewater so I put them as the favorites to win the division.
You saying the Packers are the favorites to win even though Rodgers is the only reason they are good is a prime example as to why this division is pretty weak. It may not be the weakest but it's got to be pretty close.

I will be the first to admit that Rodgers is great but he can't do everything. That team is not great overall and it keeps showing. When I see Rodgers just chuck the ball up and see a crappy Adams make that catch all I see is luck, not skill. Rodgers had the skill to be able to make a throw but it was peer luck that it was caught. Normally that's a terrible decision but because Adams makes a clutch catch for the first time in his career it makes Rodgers look like God. Reminds me of all the crap passes Favre threw that his WRs caught and people thought he was the greatest.
I honestly think without Rodgers the Packers are just as good as the Bears and Lions, which is not that good.

I totally agree. He makes the difference. That's why I say that as long as he's there, there is always a chance to win

I agree that he always gives them a chance but it doesn't make their team great like some like to think.
Yeppers. Like I posted before if we could have scored 24 points we win and I think as the defense improves that will be the case for much of the season.
The average winning score yesterday was 25. The average losing score was 16. 7 winning teams averaged less then 25, 7 losing teams averaged more then 16. 25 points only wins 8 of 14 games. While Def is important, scoring is becoming easier and easier in this NFL, so 25 is not a good option if you want to win in the NFL b/c winning teams will actually score more then that.
Since you were pissed we only scored 14 on Sunday how 'bout we just shoot for 24 for now and hope the defense can hold the other guys to less than 24. If we can in 8 of 14 that way then we should be able to win 9 of 16 and that would show some decent progress. Not the playoff but still some progress.
