They don't scare me.

Mike needs to hire a sports psychologist to get his team ready to play. So he knows how to get them mentally prepared.

It will come back to bite him and the team in the ass sooner than later.

Agreed. At this point, I think most feel/know it'll take something special to defeat Seattle. It's quite apparent that they're head and shoulders above the rest of the NFL now, even if they play on the road. For now, enjoy what's left, Sunday will be a festive atmosphere and a great game. I want to enjoy what I can with the rest of the season, not worry about what's not here yet.

Let's just worry about beating the Lions and hopefully getting a bye week.

I'm not reading too much into the Seahawks vs. Cardinals game on Sunday night, just like I'm not the Cowboys vs. Colts game. Did anyone actually think the Cardinals had a chance? Give me a break. Ryan Lindley??? Has that guy ever thrown an NFL touchdown pass? The Packers, Cowboys, or Lions would beat up on them at this point, imo.

Lots of football left. Seattle is very likely the better team overall. But the better team doesn't always win. The odds are against them winning another Super Bowl based upon repeat champion statistics. Even if the Packers do make it to a rematch, if they can't beat them, they don't deserve to be champions, anyway. May the best team win. I believe the Packers are once again an ascending team heading into next season. If they don't win the Super Bowl this season, I like their chances once again as a serious contender next season.

...in addition to all you said about "any team can win" I think it's worth noting that when you look at some of the 'Hawks recent victories, they're not as impressive as they initially appeared at least in terms of the strength of opponent. The Eagles, 49'ers, and Cardinals are pretty clearly in decline for various reasons, and all three are shadows of what they were earlier in the season.

That said, I acknowledge again that you have to have your head buried in the sand to not view Seattle as a viable threat and pretty clearly the top dog in both the NFC and NFL right now. Your point about Det and Dallas are good ones, either could be a good match up against Seattle, so why sit here counting our chickens dead before they're hatched?

The game was never once in doubt from my perspective. That's why teams play four quarters. Games aren't decided after two quarters. I can truthfully say I never thought the Packers would lose this game. Of course it could have been a better win. It almost always can be. But it was still a good win, especially with a quarterback that wasn't 100% and on the road in a place the Packers have struggled recently. Now time to rest up and prepare for next week. Packers fans are such babies sometimes. The Packers defense was basically dominant this game and did exactly what they should do against an inferior team. And the offense was decent, too.

Yea we won,but to not be concerned that our offense has stunk it up on the road 2 weeks in a row means you wearing them green and gold glasses. We can say Buffalo has a great defense so thats why we struggled. But whats the excuse for the Bucs game? That defense is horrid and yet our offense looked very out of sync and not lethal at all.

Jordy's dropped pass... the defining moment of the 2014 season. Dallas hasn't lost on the road. That should be one heckuva game, if it happens. I thought 12-4 and one and done in playoffs heading into the season. Still, on track.

But no way in hell we are winning in SEA with this team. Lynch will run us over which will open up the passing game.

The big problem I see in the playoffs is that Seattle will host a game against Atlanta or Arizona and win 56-9 or something... then we will have to visit Seattle and they will be fresh as a rose and playing at home.

Well, if you want to be the best, you have to beat the best.
Hopefully Seattle will get knocked out by some lowly team before we have to face them!
Although, wouldn't it be sweet to go to their place and beat them???

It CAN happen. Especially when a team thinks it's "in the bag".
