It’s the end of the Brett Favre era for the Green Bay Packers, but that just means new beginnings for a young, talented Packers team! After a promising season in 2007, the Packers dropped a tough loss to the eventual Super Bowl champion New York Giants 23-20 in the NFC title game. But the rest of the NFC better watch out in 2008 because the Packers are out to best their 13-win effort and surge to the top of the NFC North Division once again.
Boasting unlimited potential, QB Aaron Rodgers will replace the legendary Favre in the pocket. The youth movement continues with a great offensive line and RB Ryan Grant giving Aaron Rodgers plenty of help. Rookie WR Jordy Nelson joins Greg Jennings and Donald Driver in an outstanding receiving corps that thrives in the West Coast system. Veteran CBs Al Harris and Charles Woodson jam WRs at the line, while S Atari Bigby knocks their fillings out. LB AJ Hawk and DE Aaron Kampman control the line of scrimmage.
With Coach Mike McCarthy at the helm, the Green Bay Packers will set their sights on taking the NFC North crown en route to a Super Bowl bid. The surging Minnesota Vikings and the improving Detroit Lions stand in the way. The biggest challenge in the division is the always-tough Chicago Bears. The Green Bay Packers have one of the toughest schedules in football, facing the Dallas Cowboys, Indianapolis Colts, and Jacksonville Jaguars.
For over 50 years, the historic Lambeau Field – hailed as the “Frozen Tundra” – will continue to be the home of the Green Bay Packers and one of the best venues in the NFL. Green Bay Packers tickets are some of the toughest sports tickets to get, but rest assured, Cheeseheads, OnlineTickets.com has all the Green Bay Packers tickets you need as the mighty Green and Gold get rough and rowdy in Lambeau Field in 2008!
