Scott H. Green is a former American football official in the National Football League (NFL) from the 1991 NFL season until the 2013 NFL season. He had officiated. Rising to the challenge. Quarterback Jay Cutler overcame multiple obstacles in 2015 to have what was arguably his best season since joining the Bears in 2009. On February 26, 2007, Brett Favre underwent minor arthroscopic ankle surgery in Green Bay, Wisconsin to remove a buildup of bone spurs in his left ankle.

The Packer Perspective | NFL Football Through Green and Gold Glasses. The Cardinals handled the Packers easily in the regular season. Can the Packers rebound? By Jon Meerdink. Editor’s note: Hi there! Packer Perspective is back. You may have followed our live tweeting of last Sunday’s win over Washington.
I can’t say for sure exactly how this will play out in the future, but at the very least, we’re back for now! It’s easy to compare the 2. Packers and the 2. Packers. Both were 1.
Both were perceived to have underachieved. Both finished second in the NFC North behind relatively strong defenses and relatively inconsistent offenses, at least at times. The 2. 01. 0 Packers went on to win the Super Bowl, so the easy assumption is that the 2. But will they? I don’t think so, but I’m becoming less sure that this year’s team is really markedly different from 2. Speaking broadly, my. В general consensus about this year’s team is that some of the key contributors are a little on the old side and some of the players who find themselves more on the young side aren’t really pulling their weight. The initial data wouldn’t necessarily seem to bear that out.
The average ages of both the 2. Packers’ starting lineups is almost the same, at just over 2. The average ages of the rosters as a whole is pretty close too: the 2.
Baseball players are smarter than football players. How often do you see a baseball team penalized for too many men on the field? Jim Bouton. Tom Brady Quotes.
However, the similarities break down when you delve into exactly who did what for both teams. For instance, here’s a look at the average ages of the top five rushers by yardage for both 2. As you can see, the Super Bowl champion Packers relied on a much younger stable of backs than this year’s team. Packers’ five most successful rushers this year are past that point. Oddly, the Packers have the exact reverse problem when it comes to their pass catchers: The Packers’ receivers this year are just over a year and a half younger than their 2. I bet you’d take the 2. While younger and presumably springier, the Packers’ receiving corps this year was underwhelming to say the least.
These same two problems hold true for almost every other area on the two teams. Here’s a quick look at the age differences between the leaders for tackles, sacks, and interceptions: The 2. Packers were either younger and less effective or older and less productive than their 2. Even though, as I said earlier, the average ages between the two teams’ starting lineups and overall rosters are about the same, the 2. Packers really had it where it counts: they got consistency from their young performers (a la James Starks in the playoffs) and they got the solid, leadership- style performances from their older players.

This entire phenomenon leads me to believe that the Packers are far closer to a full teardown and rebuild than we might want to believe. Logically, the younger players presently on the Packers roster (think about the surprisingly successful and youthful secondary) will need a couple more years of seasoning before they really become team leaders. That ads a couple more years to the Packers core…which is surprisingly long in the tooth.

Julius Peppers, Aaron Rodgers, Clay Matthews, B. J. Raji, Josh Sitton, T. J. Lang, and Sam Shields are all 2.
How many years of contention does that group really have left? Two, if we’re lucky? My point, in all of this, is that no matter how this weekend’s game goes, bear in mind that we may be seeing the end of an era. The Packers may be ready for a reshuffling, and it’ll be incumbent upon Ted Thompson to give the roster a reworking in the offseason to make the best use of whatever remains of Aaron Rodgers’ prime.
The Pick – Cardinals: 3.
