the vikings will start off hot like last year and probably start losing around week 8 or so...the lions may be able to sneak a division title this year due to rodgers injury and the vikings general knack for inconsistency....
Rodgers won a Super Bowl. Don't forget that.
They won't sign Kaepernick. He's in the process of attempting to sue the NFL owners. I don't see anyone signing him. Plus they like Hundley.
They'd better not go after Romo. He's too good as a commentator, plus I want him to be one of the few modern players who spent his whole career as a Cowboy. The only QB injury that should tempt him would be an injury to Dak!
yea but that SB was 7 yrs ago...and he hasn't done much except for a few nfc champ games where he played ok but no where near where he was capable of during the regular season....
to me rodgers is another peyton manning....a great player during the reg season but when it counts in the playoffs he more often falters than rise to the challenge...
i'll be the first one to also admit eli manning is no longer elite....his deep ball is severely lacking and most often he does the 20 yard mid range pass....which having a guy like OBJ is great to make guys miss but I miss seeing him heave deep balls down the field to guys like cruz (who was released) and even back when they had mario manningham....making some great catches deep down the field....now eli is starting to resemble the dink/dunk game like peyton was towards the back end of his broncos tenure (probably started around '14 season -16 it got way worse...)...
I get it that its age and stuff, but I still think philip rivers (same draft class) throws a better deep ball/further than Eli....
as much as I think Rodgers is overrated in general....he throws one of the best deep balls in the league still at his age maybe that's due to sitting a few seasons under favre and less wear/tear but man his hail mary's last year at his age still going the distance is pretty good....
if the packers dont make a splash trade or signing I think they dont even make the playoffs even with hundley as the starter....wild card spot wont even be sniffed....
