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.
True. Rodgers can be a "game changer" and he's one of the few NFL QBs who can be all by himself. As long as he's upright and can throw he can hurt you. There's no one else out there whose as slippery in the pocket AND as good a passer as he is.

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.
It's all about putting them where the can catch 'em Hawk. Some guys do that a whole lot better than others and their teams usually win.
Week one was rough, but it wasn't down by 30 at halftime bad (we all remember Tuckers defense). * if Texans end up up a top 5 defense we are going to be ok. * White needs to stop being a red shirt rookie soon. * I don't think Texans Offensive line is a particular strength of their team. This worries me. Pass rush was not good. * Our Tackles got their teeth kicked in. Loggins will need to help them more with TE/rbs like gase did. Did his play calling suck or did our crap execution suck. Probably both. * if healthy our DBs might be ok.
The reason I didn't want Fox was for this reason, I wanted to see the O continue to build and develop, and then the coach work on fixing the def. It was similar to what McDaniels did in Denver where he tore down the O for no reason when all he had to do was fix the def.

+1 I was disappointed that we couldn't pressure the QB better. And the OL needs to get better for sure. I like to think both of these issues will be improved, but it may be a work in progress the first half of the season.
