We are now chronologically closer to the end of Rodgers' physical prime (optimistically) than we are to our Super Bowl.
We should've had at least one more by now, and we might have, had TT done anything to shore up that horrible 2011 defense, not relied on Walden/Mulumba/Moses against Kaepernick, and gave us more than the combo of Quarless/Rodgers at TE last year.
I'm going to look back on TT's legacy with disgust if we don't have another Super Bowl by 2021.
To play devils advocate does that mean you look back on Wolf's legacy with disgust then?
Ron Wolf took over a Packer franchise that was in shambles on multiple fronts. Things were so bad, coaches and GM's of other teams would threaten players to shape up or they'd trade those players to Green Bay. A lot of college players dreaded the thought of the Packers drafting them. The facilities were outdated and drab. Games were still being played in dumpy County Stadium until Wolf said this is going to end.
Wolf not only had to build better teams, he had to completely change the culture and image of the franchise. He's said multiple times that he deeply regrets only winning one title, but the situation he took over compared to the one Ted took over were night and day. By the time Ted was named GM, the Packers franchise was viewed as one of the elite ones again in the league.
