Therefore everything I write will be wrong according to at least 98% of Packer fans. I must say I'm still torn about the possibility of # 4 coming to the Twin Cities and wearing purple. I still don't know how I'm going to handle cheering for the guy I've jeered for years. This of course will be the reverse of the situation for Cheeseheads. So, as ... tufar@shaw.ca (WRITE AGAIN) Green Bay Packers 2009-07-16T14:52:22-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/13395 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/13395 It’s about that time where the surprise teams of the NFL season are really found. Whether it be the Tennessee Titans (who expected them to be 12-1?), the Jacksonville Jaguars (who expected them to be 4-9?) or even the Detroit Lions (0-13 is obviously a brand-new low), it’s late enough now that we know what teams are capable of. In 2008, one of those surprise teams is the Green Bay Packers.

Maybe it should be reworked to something along the lines of “we can destroy/dismantle/demoralize anybody," which is exactly how the Packers must be feeling after their 34-14 win at Lambeau over the Colts. I said in my most recent article that in a close game the battle tested Colts ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-10-21T07:00:16-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12988 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12988 The battle-tested Colts come into Lambeau field on Sunday with a win in mind. Both the Colts (3-2) and Packers (3-3) are equally banged up and hungry. Will the Pack lose a third straight home game? Probably. Before destroying the Ravens last weekend, the Colts had three straight games decided by four points or fewer. The Packers, on the other hand, have been on both the winning and losing end of ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-10-17T10:00:08-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12992 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12992 As the trade deadline quietly passed this past Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers and the Kansas City Chiefs were unable to finalize a deal that would have sent future Hall of Fame tight end Tony Gonzalez to the frozen tundra. After missing an opportunity in 2006 to trade for current Atlanta Falcons RB Michael Turner and in 2007 for superstar WR Randy Moss, Green Bay general manager Ted Thompson ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-10-15T04:00:50-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12873 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12873 As the pleasant Wisconsin fall gives way to what’s soon to be the bitter cold (sorry, guys, it’s the truth), the chills came unseasonably early this year. In a woeful weekend for Wisconsin sports that saw both the Milwaukee Brewers get knocked out of the National League playoff race and the Packers lose their third game in as many weeks, it’s hard to have anything to look forward to as the ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-10-07T04:00:45-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12806 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12806 Tight ends are often referred to as a young quarterback's best friend. The way the last two weeks have gone in Green Bay, it seems Aaron Rodgers could use one of those right about now. Through four games, Packers TE Donald Lee is averaging about two catches and 20 yards per contest. Further, he hasn't found the end zone this season. Commentary: With Brett Favre at the helm in 2007, Lee caught ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-10-03T04:03:59-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12805 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12805 The Bears, Falcons, Cardinals, 49ers and Jets were somewhere between the NFL’s worst and mediocre during the 2007 season. All of those teams are 2-2 this year, which is bad news for fellow .500 club member Green Bay. Why? Because the Packers won 13 games last year and an NFC North title, but they are seemingly falling back to the pack. Losing to Tampa bay last Sunday was the second defeat in a ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-10-02T08:00:08-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12749 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12749 The Cowboys emerged from Lambeau Field last Sunday night with a convincing, 27-16 win over a Green Bay team that was looking to officially establish itself in the Aaron Rodgers era. Dallas was victorious despite Terrell Owens' less-than-gaudy, two-catch, 17-yard performance. Even without posting huge numbers, Owens was the biggest reason the Cowboys' offense succeeded. Commentary: Before the ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-09-26T04:06:16-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12750 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12750 Not that anyone should be panicking after a disappointing loss to the undefeated Dallas Cowboys, but the Green Bay Packers seem to lack the spark that led to 13 wins and an NFC North title in 2007. Commentary: With the Green Bay defensive secondary banged up early and running back Ryan Grant currently off to a slow start, last year’s team would have looked to Brett Favre during rough times ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-09-26T04:00:22-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12675 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12675 The Packers looked sharp in their 45-28 blowout win in Detroit last weekend, although the game was much closer than the final score indicated. It wasn’t until Green Bay's defense returned back-to-back interceptions for touchdowns in the fourth quarter that the Pack secured the victory. Commentary: It happened again. After a dominating performance in the first half, the Green Bay offense ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-09-19T04:14:00-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12676 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12676 The 2-0 Packers face the 2-0 Cowboys for early season bragging rights this Sunday. Commentary: It’s hard to find any sports talk show that doesn’t mention allegedly Super Bowl-bound Dallas, which has been led by superb play from quarterback Tony Romo and wide receiver Terrell Owens this year. A Packers win this Sunday will likely change the Cowboy hype, though, as Green Bay has been quietly ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-09-18T16:00:00-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12601 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12601 Not to drop a big fat pumpkin on last year's Cinderella running back, but don’t look for the Packers' Ryan Grant to explode for another couple weeks. Grant amassed 92 yards on 12 carries in Green Bay’s Monday night win over the Vikings, but backup Brandon Jackson wasn’t far behind with seven rushes of his own. Grant had a 57-yard scamper late in the game but appeared to lack his signature ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-09-11T04:10:00-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12599 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12599 Monday, the Packers -- led by new quarterback Aaron Rodgers -- beat the NFC North rival Vikings in the teams' season opener; so, everything is cool in Green Bay, right? Well, not quite. Commentary: The Packers clearly outmatched the Vikings on both sides of the ball and added a special teams touchdown, yet they only squeaked out a five-point victory. If Vikings QB Tarvaris Jackson didn't badly ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-09-10T04:02:00-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12507 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/packers/12507 The Packers have to trim their roster from 75 to 53 players by this Saturday. With noteworthy position battles going on all over the field, one has stood out more prominently than others. That, of course, is the fight for the No. 2 quarterback position. So far, highly touted second-round draft pick Brian Brohm has been given the benefit of the doubt in playing ahead of more effective ... nsobic@gmail.com (Nik Sobic) Green Bay Packers 2008-08-29T04:05:00-05:00
