Seattle is good and GB has some work to do on D. Wow.

Packers D looks the same as the past several years... Soft.

One big difference in this game was that most of the time the Seahawks first defender got the Packer down with very little YAC.

On the other side it often took the third or fourth Packer to get the Seahawk down (and not just Lynch) and they would almost always fall forward for extra yardage.


The Packer D is full of pansies.

I'm reserving judgement through the end of October. Kind of stupid since it's half the season, but we started off with the toughest team possible. After this we have the Jets, the division teams, the Dolphins and Panthers, and then round it out with another tough test against New Orleans. That's a decent slate to measure up to the rest of the league.

I think last year we had Week 4 for a bye, it's nice to have Week 9 to split the season in half like an All-Star break. Plus the schedule is home heavy in the 2nd half, 5 home games.

Isn't the whole point of the league to judge your team's ability against the best? Unless you can hang with them, it really doesn't matter what else your team does during the season, with exception to th team that's on its way towards becoming the best.

I should have stated it in a different way. I mean more along the lines of that the defense is awful right now, but we'll see if they can actually improve. The schedule is set up in a way that each game is a little more difficult than the last, or at least around the same difficulty right up until that New Orleans game. If the team does well before the Saints game, that game will be a good measure of if they've improved enough to actually make a run to the SB, or if it's just going to be another Wild Card round ousting again.

Hmm. There are definitely two ways to take that.

I know what he meant by it. But people who call the Whine Line might not know what he meant by that. ;)

And the people who call whine line should be heavily medicated and banned from watching anyway.
