    This game will tell us ALOT about this team.

    If they shit themselves, then we're just the same old, same old. If they play well, I will be pleasantly surprised.

    So far so good on the defense. They've been holding it together.

    It will be nice to finally play a team that doesn't have a quarterback with scrambling abilities.

    Packers are on a roll here and I don't think the Saints defense is good enough to stop the production the offense has been having. Saints have been struggling and they really aren't the team they used to be. Their only two wins have come against Minnesota and Tampa Bay, with the Tampa Bay game being won in OT. Not impressive.

    With that said, I am still expecting a decent, close game. Saints will be at home and its a prime time game. They need a bounce back after last week's terrible loss and will be busting their asses to get the win. Who better to do it against than the 5-2 Packers. Packers won't be taking this game easy. Rodgers knows what kind of game this could turn into and will be ready. The Packers would love nothing more than to go into the bye week at 6-2 with minimal injuries to nurse.

    Defense gets 2 turnovers.
    Defense gets 3 sacks.
    Rodgers throws for 250+ yards and 3 touchdowns, no interceptions.
    Lacy runs for just above 100 yards and 2 touchdowns (he'll be excited to be back home).

    Packers win 35-21.

    Easy to worry about the team shitting themselves after you rip off four straight. I hope the bye week on the horizon will be a motivation point to get the guys to lay their guts out on the field for this one.
    Saints at home where they actually play well. Brees coming off a game that he threw away. I expect their offense to score some points on us.
    Will be much more noticeable in the secondary not having Shields in the backfield this week than it was against the Panthers.
    Packers in the top 10 for both scoring offense and defense, that is a stat I like to see.

    Not ready for a prediction yet. Need to think on this one some more.

    Pierre Thomas is out which will help our defensive play calling a bit I imagine. Allow us a little more ability to attack the center of the field without as much worry with the edges.
    Drew Brees has only had one game this season without an interception.

    Saints pretty much down to Khyri Robinson at rb.

    Ingram and Thomas are out, no triple threat as in the past.

    Jimmy Graham supposedly played last week, but was not targeted.

    Don't expect him to be much of a factor this week either.

    Saints at home are good for 17 points.

    I'll give them 23.

    Packers Offense just getting started.

    Packers 41 Saints 23.

    My prediction for the game- GB wins. Aaron and Jordy continue to roll. The rest don't matter.

      beast (7h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
      beast (7h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty
      Mucky Tundra (19h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
      beast (21h) : Cowboys denied Bears request
      Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game
      Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
      Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

      Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is
      Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison
      Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
      Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
      Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
      Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference
