What does loss of Rivera and Wahle do to Packers?

[PackerAttack84]

All this means is that the Packers have 10 million dollars worth of cap room and we can speed up the rebuilding process, starting with Favre retiring. What good was it going to do if they stayed and Favre doesn't retire. We get to go 10-6 and lose in the playoffs.

2005 Green Bay Packers = 2004 Jacksonville Jaguars

A team that will still be in games, but will struggle. Will barely miss the playoffs.

Yeah, they won't be that terrible, miss the playoffs.

But they are in the NFC! Who knows.

They won't have to worry as much about Moss either. lol

The curse has been lifted!Favre stays,Favre goes it's all the same.This team is headed to the cellar.They lost to a verrrry mediocre(at best) Bears team last year,then the Vikes knocked them down a peg,and it all led to goodnight Pack.See you in 5 years Packer fans,clean house and start over.

Well, I'm not quite as gleeful about it as Sixxgunn but I do agree with his point. I think the Packers are in for a few rough years. Hopefully we can turn it around quickly instead of sinking back in a quagmire like a couple of decades ago.

JAX was 9-7, pack was 10-6... with these losses you have to be joking... the packers were lucky as hell to win some of those games... you are nuts if you think losing wahle, rivera, and favre will lead to a 9-7 record... even in the NFC... not only that... but the 2004 pack LOST to the 2004 Jaguars... who will they get with the cap room??? pfft, pack loses favre they'd be lucky to pull out 5 wins

I don't mind losing Rivera (I thought he was overrated) but the loss of Wahle really hurts. He's the 3rd best guard in the league (after Hutchinson and Faneca) and pulls a lot for the Packers. Clifton, Tauscher, and Flanagan are all great at their positions and I assume they will move Kevin Barry inside and give Ruegamer some time, they should still be a top 10 o-line next year.

That said the Packers are going straight downhill (and fast).

Read it again. I never said we would win 9 games, I said we would contend for a playoff spot like Jacksonville did and end up just missing out.
