The Green Bay Packers catapulted themselves into a Super Bowl contender following the trade for Micah Parsons. Moreover, the Parsons era in Green Bay began with an impressive 27-13 win over the Detroit Lions.
Parsons' arrival brings a dominant pass-rushing presence that elevates a talented Green Bay defense. By commanding double teams, he creates space for his teammates to pressure the quarterback and make big plays.
With the Packers having a young team and key players hitting their prime years, the question is, with Parsons now in the fold, what's the window for Green Bay to win a Super Bowl?
What's the Packers' Super Bowl window?
On Thursday's edition of "NFL GameDay," analyst Maurice Jones-Drew shared his take on the window for the Packers to take advantage of their talent and win a Super Bowl.
"[The Packers] had success last year," Jones-Drew said. "[They decided to] double down and do it again. Get a generational talent for a first-round pick. We want a pick so high that we can go get a guy like that. We'll go ahead and do that.
"Now we're all in. All in meaning, we have young guys who can make plays for the next three or four years, and that's what they're banking on. Their window now is the next, I would say, three to five years here in Green Bay to go and win a championship."

Moreover, Jones-Drew believes that the success the Packers had in their signings of Josh Jacobs and Xavier McKinney last year gave them the confidence to swing for the fences, which led to drafting Matthew Golden and trading for Parsons.
"I think the Packers have done an awesome job of [improving the team] with Micah Parsons," Jones-Drew added. "Now we're going to go get a first-run wide receiver for our quarterback, help him out. Then we're going to go get a guy that can change the way we want to do things.
"Again, Micah Parsons—he's a generational talent that changes an organization on the field, meaning he can affect the game and change the landscape or the course of a game in one play."
