Super Bowl Champions – the Pack is Very Much Back
The Green Bay Packers are refreshed and ready to defend their Super Bowl Championship. The Packers are led by quarterback sensation, Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers came into his own last year, torching the league with accuracy and arm strength not seen since Dan Marino. He has established himself as one of the premier quarterbacks in the NFL.
The Packers will also get help from the returns of tight end JerMichael Finley and running back Ryan Grant. With the addition of two elite offensive players, the Packers offense could be even more explosive than last year. When you consider how dynamic and versatile the offense was last year, any additional explosiveness is difficult to fathom.
On the defensive side of the ball, the Packers are also loaded. A.J. Hawk is one of the game’s outstanding linebackers, and Charles Woodson will make sure the secondary is as strong as ever. The Packers used a combination of pressuring the quarterback with lockdown pass defense to stifle the opposition’s offense. They were difficult to score upon all year, and their swarming defense caused NFL teams nightmares. The ability to create turnovers and put the Packers dangerous offense back on the field led to many wins.
The Packers will win ready to defend their title this year. They are a young, hungry team with no boundaries. They can play against any style either at home or on the road. The coaching staff will be a great job keeping the team humble and ready to repeat. Rodgers will want to cement his legacy as one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game. If you doesn’t perform well this year, some may call last year’s performance a fluke. But with the rich history of the Packers, a repeat is the first step into receiving legendary status.
