I think we will struggle holding back their running attack...we have struggled all year doing so and I don't see it getting better vs the Raiders.

The question is what this guy's understanding of an additional pass rusher is. In a 3-4 at least one of the olbs rushes the passer on common downs, so I don't expect him to think, that 4 guys is one more than usual.

They're out of McFadden and Taiwan Jones, plus they miss a couple of WRs. If Aaron puts us aheaed +14 in the first quarter, their running attack will be slowed down by their gameplan. They'll have to pass all day long.

I've Bush in my fantasy team and he's IMO no option for this week.

Packers 42, Raiders 13

But hopefully our offense will jump out fast and eliminate the option of running from the Raiders' gameplan. If they have Carson Palmer throw it 30 or 40 times, you can almost guarantee 2+ interceptions.

Here are some milestones that could be accomplished today:

[list]
  • With a win OR with a loss AND a New Orleans loss, the Packers clinch the No. 2 seed and a first-round bye
  • With a win AND a San Francisco loss AND a New Orleans loss, the Packers clinch the No. 1 seed and home field advantage throughout the playoffs
  • With a win, the Packers solidify their hold on sole possession of the second-longest winning streak in NFL history (19)
  • With a win, the Packers extend their NFL-record of consecutive games in which they never trailed in the 4th quarter (19)
  • With a win, the Packers become the first Packers squad and only the 8th team in league history to a season 13-0-0
  • With 2 touchdown passes, Aaron Rodgers ties the league record for most consecutive games with 2 touchdown passes (14)
  • With 2 touchdown passes, Aaron Rodgers ties the team record for touchdown passes in a season (39)
  • With 1 interception return for a touchdown, Charles Woodson ties the league record for most career interception returns for touchdown (12)[/list]

  • These are just the first ones off the top of my head. I am sure there are more.

    Tightening up the Packers' defense: Despite the Packers' perfect record, Mike McCarthy expressed to his team that its quality of play needs to improve. For example, he was concerned about having too many dropped passes in last week's win over the Giants. There is no question defensive coordinator Dom Capers has to stop the leakage on the Packers' defense. The Packers are allowing 397.8 yards per game and are next to last in the NFL. No team has ever reached the Super Bowl allowing more than 360 yards per game. The 2009 Saints beat the Colts in the Super Bowl despite allowing 357.8 yards a game. Enter the Oakland Raiders. No one can figure out what happened to them last week. Hue Jackson took his team to Miami, and the Raiders ended up as though they were in the Bermuda Triangle. They fell behind 34-0 and never competed. The Packers and the Raiders have met only 10 times, but the Packers have won the past five and will try to bring the number to six at Lambeau Field.
