I am concerned about the GB DBs vs the NYG WRs.

Wow, points for and against really tell the stories of where these two teams have been going this season. I'm figuring timely turnovers will likely determine the winner.

I predict this game be a shootout although if the weathers plays a factor then the team that commits the least amount of mistakes (turnovers, penalties) should win. Although the giants are a big threat against our secondary i believe the cold weather should somewhat netralize that. We still need to bring the pressure to Eli though otherwise we will be in for a long day. Both teams dont have a great running game but I think well have the advantage with montgamery and the emergence of Ripkowski. And its hard to bet against Aaron Rodgers right now. Hes playing at an MVP level lets just hope that carries through over the playoffs. If the defense can force a few punts or get 1 or 2 turnovers then I like our chances. I am really glad this is at lambeau. If it was in NY Im not sure Id like our chances. Pack 31 Giants 28

After Matthews dropped that INT, I figured we'd still pull off a win but my immediate thought was "That happens in the playoffs and they go on and score that TD, we lose.". Time to get your shit together!

What a game, the Giants are an old foe, they are playing well, we are playing well too...

The giants have a quite formidable passing attack, Cruz, Odell, Shepard, they are good, our secondary is bad, heroic, strange.
They also have a good secondary, Apple is a good CB and Rodgers Cromartie is a guy you have to watch, I watched #41 against the Redskins and he is constantly trying to read the QB and looking for an interception, he knows the routes as well as the WRs.

Weather will be a factor, a running game is really important imagining a game in freezing conditions, maybe snow against a team with a capable secondary. Monty and Ripkowski will have to dominate the game and I think they can do it. Allison will be our key target, Cromartie can't cover all our WRs.

The keys to win this game for me are:
1. Scare the hell out of Eli Mannin. Our DL is not playing well, they need to raise the ante, if you get to Eli he becomes agitated, nervous and can make mistakes. Don't let Manning stay calm in the pocket reading the secondary, if that happens his only problem will be to decide which open guy to throw to.
2. Have a running game.
3. Win the turnover battle.

I'm not so sure that being at home is so much of an advantage. The Packers are .500 at home in the playoffs since McCarthy took the reins, compared to 14-2 all-time before he came to town.

    Zero2Cool (8h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
    Zero2Cool (9h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
    beast (23h) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
    beast (23h) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
    Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
    Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
    dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
    Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
    dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
    Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you
    wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
    wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
    Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
    wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
    dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
    Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
    Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.
    Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down
    Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
    dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
    beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
    beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
    beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
    Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
    beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...
    beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
    wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
    wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
    wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
    Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
    Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

    Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet
    beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury
    beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State
    beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State
    Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled
    Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond
    Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh
