Welcome to the official thread for the OS SFL Green Bay Packers. Here you may find previews, reviews, interviews, and any other views you may be thirsting for.
This organization is controlled by one man, F0RL3F CLOV3R. Due to character restraints within coach generating options, he has taken on a new name, Forlef Clover. For those interested, the first name is now pronounced four-left (minus the T). This name was given to coach from Truth's mother the night he gave her lock jaw and she couldn't speak properly... Moving on...
The Offense:
Green Bay continues to be led by Aaron Rodgers ever since the Ol Gunslinger left Green Bay. Aaron has developed into the most elite QB in the league and has set numerous records already in his early career. With a ironman mentor like Favre, you can only imagine what he learned. Aaron now has weapons that Favre never had such as numerous top tier receivers, versatile TE's, and a coach who knows how to win. The one thing lacking right now that Favre always had was an offensive line. Look for GB to shore up the offensive line especially on the blind side where Marshall Newhouse is currently stationed. In the offseason GB thought it would be best to release long time Packer Chad Clifton but in return pick up a different OL position need, the center, and go and sign Jeff Saturday. If GB has a good year in the SFL this season, the offense is what will carry them.
The Defense:
The Defense for the Packers are rated solid but the play isn't there. Clay Matthews, arguably the best defensive player on the team (regard to Charles Woodson) was almost irrelevant last season since that was the only pass rush the Packers had for opposing teams. In the offseason, GB spent nearly all their picks on defense including lineman, linebackers, and defensive backs. First round pick Nick Perry who also came from USC as did Clay looks to have a great rookie season and possibly compete for defensive ROY. Charles Woodson has moved to safety after the possible career ending injury Nick Collins suffered and he is looking to bring his heisman and defensive POY skills to the new position.
Prediction:
F0RL3F knows nothing about going under .500 nor anything about exceeding .500. The obvious record prediction would be .500 based on previous seasons results but I am going out on a limb and saying 10-6 with either a wildcard berth or the division crown.
