POLL: Your Expectations for the 2026 Green Bay Packers!
Contribute to our annual fan exepctations survey!
By TimBackes
It's that time of year once again!
With the 2026 training camp just days away, it's time to submit your responses to my annual poll for fan expectations for the team. This is the eighth year I've done this poll and it's always fun to see what people say.
The questions stay mostly the same (with a few exceptions) every year, but the responses are always different and provide some good insight into the general mood of the fanbase heading into the new season.
The link to take the survey is here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScvlch8fRnje_gZjDwyuXZFaRMAmdiV...
Next week, I will return with a full breakdown of responses, and will highlight some of your answers to the last few questions on the list.

The wording is important. Expectation is not the same as hope, or dream.
My expectation is we make the playoffs and not as the 7th seed.
My hope is that we at least contest for the NFC championship spot
My dream is, what else, the Lombardi....

It's too early to make predications. I prefer to wait for the week between the end of the pre-season and regular season Week 1.
Assuming that the Packers make it to Week 1 without injuries and remain relatively healthy throughout the season I think the Packers will reach the playoffs. Whether they go in as a wild card or as the winner of the North will depend on when Parsons returns from his ACL injury. The sooner the better for the Packers chances to win the division. The Packers should at least make it to the divisional round this season. More than that will be an excellent season IMO.
Having said that we also need MLF to improve his pre game preparations and in his in game decision making. He needs to prepare the Packers to put opponents away and play a full 60 minutes of football. Discipline the team to mitigate stupid penalties and he needs to work on time management specifically. In addition the defense needs to adapt to Gannon's new defense as quickly as possible, make stops and get off the field.
Numerous questions need to be answered during TC and the pre-season rather than lingering on deep into the season. MLF, get it done or get gone.
Thanks, Since '61
