A More Reasonable Look at the Preseason and What To Expect Moving Forward

As much as I hate to borrow an adage from our rivals in Green and Yellow, Mr. Rodgers said it best “R-E-L-A-X”.

I saw someone on Twitter suggesting our season was over because we have no depth behind Tyler Conklin. The boys in purple have given us plenty of reasons in the past to be pessimistic, but let’s take a collective breath. Look at some of the positives and refocus on some real things we can take away from the remaining games on the schedule.
