Toughest game of the year for the Packers. This game will show what kind of team the Packers really are. The good thing is this game is at Lambeau Field. I don't see either team having much of an advantage over one another but the game being at Lambeau gives the Packers that inch of advantage.
Offense needs to be spot on this game. The Patriots have a very good, sound defensive backfield and they will be one of the smart teams that will attempt to take Jordy away with the double coverage (safety high). I expect to see Browner covering Jordy and Revis covering Cobb. If the Packers were smart, they'd use Jordy in motion a lot to screw up the coverages of this defense. In the Packers favor, their tight ends are starting to come on at the right time. As someone else has stated before, Lacy-Lacy-Lacy. Give Lacy the ball and let him romp and stomp his way through the defense.
If Dom calls a game anything similar to what he did against the Vikings then the Packers are screwed...regardless of what the offense does. The defense cannot afford to give Brady time. Patriots receivers are mediocre but allow Brady 5+ seconds and he will dish the ball to them with ease. There is one potential answer to stopping Gronkowski and that is Micah Hyde having him the best game of his career. I believe he is the only option on the Packers defense to put a stop to Gronkowski absolutely dominating this defense. Like the Patriots defense most likely doubling Jordy, Packers are going to have to double Gronk. The Packers defense cannot get Gronk'd.
Rodgers throws for 3 touchdowns.
Lacy gets 2 touchdowns.
Defense creates 2 turnovers.
Packers- 38
Patriots- 31
