  The Packers got killed in there schedual and will have a tough time as a young team. Here is their schedule from Week 3 through 11.  3) Dallas, 4) at Tampa Bay, 5) Atlanta, 6) at Seattle, 7) Indianapolis, 8) Bye, 9) at Tennessee, 10) at Minnesota, 11) Chicago, 12) at New Orleans.

That is a lot of tough games.  5 of those 9 teams are playoff teams.  Minnesota has added Jared Allen and the Packers couldn’t beat the Bears last year when the Pack won 13 games. Two of the Pack’s 3 losses were to Chicago.  New Orleans could return to their 2006 form this season.  The only victory that would seem certain is the Atlanta game at home.  The Packers’ opponents winning percentage in 2007 was .531.  The Packers aren’t going to have much time to adjust to life without #4.  They had best get out of the gate fast, because the schedule will be unforgiving if they need to make up ground starting in Week 6. and on top of all of this we got a tough road at Jacksonvill in week15. Are other games include games aginst the Vikings, Lions, Texans, and the Panthers

Nothing is gaurnteed this year with a tough schedual. it hink we end with a 11 win season though and prove how good we are

Yes, it does seem like the pack have a tough schedule this year, but you have to remember that the opponents that we played were selected eight years ago or so.  I'm not sure if that is right, but i know that they were put together years ago.  Second, in todays NFL  you really cant tell from one year to another who the good and bad teams are with a few exceptipons (ie Colts and Patriots).  I mean two years ago who though the Saints would do as well as they did?  Then the following year they don't even make the playoffs.  Also did any of us really think the Packers would have 13 wins last year?  So, we may say now that it is a rough schedule, but at the end of the year it may be considered one of the weakest.  This is one of the things that keeps the NFL so exciting...that any givin year could be your teams year.

I think the only teams who we will have a tough time with is the Cowboys they are one hell of a team. Colts are going to be tough. Jaguars will tough.

Just for little predictions.

We lost to Dallas 24-17

We beat the Colts 30-21

We lost to Jacksonville 17-14

I really think we can beat the Colts. I don't know why it's just a feeling.

I think we can go a solid 11-5 or 12-4. I have faith in Rodgers and life without Favre.

i also think we can beat the Colts if Aaron Rodgers can handle the pressure from Dwight Freeny then our recivers should fair pretty good aginst the colts secondary. all they really got is Bob Sanders. and there run D has never really been that good. i think it willl come down to who has the better D and i think we do

I do no think we need Rodgers to play great to win. What we need is not to be one dimensional. We need a solid running game and decent passing game. We will not have the time this year to wait for Ryan Grant to emerge he need to be there day one. Hopefully the RB situatoion is set and stays healthy. Grant, and supporter should be ready for their roles this year since it seems clear it is Grants job to Loose. I know lat year our running game was pathetic at the start that can not happen this year. as for Rodgers he is ready and will prove up to the task. I think we beat dallas, and Jacksonville but loose to the Colts. I do agree that the schedule looks tuff but we said the same thing last year.

Ye Of Little Faith? The only thing that has changed is the Great #4! We have a run game and Aaron Rodgers was impressive in the game against Dallas where he showed me he can preform in a huge game and not get caught up in the hype. We still have a solid O-line and our defense is still tops in the NFC  North . Green Bay Packers will finish 12-4.

The Green Bay schedule is that same as everyone else in the division except for two games (Dallas and Seattle).  Every team play every other team int heir division twice, every team is a division in the AFC (that division rotates every year, 2007 it was the AFC West, 2008 it is the AFC South), every team in a division in the NFC other than their own (2007 it was the NFC East, 2008 it is the NFC South), and then they play the team that finished in the same place as them in the other two divisions in the conference (Seattle - NFC West and Dallas - NFC East).  So, technically, the schedule makers have nothing to do with who the Packers play, only where and when they play!!

I thought the same thing when the schedule came out last year...and we went 13-3.

#4 is gone and there will be a learning curve for Arod but I'm not too worried....we'll go 10-6.
