The Giants beat Dallas. We beat the Giants.

Speaking of which, Rodgers is getting used to this talented pass blocking OL... the Packers need to keep it well stocked and draft more OL..

Cheesey, We didnt just blow out the Giants, we blew them out after spotting them a 1.5 quarter head start!

They'll be less pressure on Rodgers in Dallas. He'll play 60 minutes in that one! And I just kept thinking if only we had Shields. We don't need Shields, the way Gunter, Hyde and Randall played we are just fine. And next week Thomas should be back to 100%. If Rollins comes back, we are set.

Plus Mike already got a week's work in on Dallas, interestingly we played them right after playing NYG in October.

Oh and Nerd, Giants beat Dallas twice; we beat Giants twice.

As for "in Dallas" part of "can GB defeat Dallas in Dallas"... playing in a dome might help the Packers in this one. So being on the field, where the Packers won their last Super Bowl Championship, could be a good thing.

The biggest questions are
1) How often can the Packers defense stop the Cowboys offense?
2) How many mistakes to the Packers kill themselves with?

This is the type of game, where if the Packers make a few mistakes, they could very well lose... as it's very tough to stop the best OL in all of football, especially when they have a great weapons and a smart mobile QB to go with it. When they make a mistake, are you going to catch the ball and make them pay? If not, then the Packers could easy lose... unless some how they can stop the Cowboys running game.

Most likely getting Pennel back... it'll be interesting how the Packers set up... I'm guessing stack the box and trust the DBs to play man on man. Daniels, Guion, Clark and Pennel... we need you run stuffers.

As for mistakes, Dom is gonna trick Dak Prescott into throwing it up for us. And BTW, Zeke Elliot has has fumbling issues. 😉

I'm not so sure our offensive line isn't just as good as theirs. The x-factor is Zeke's ability to break tackles. We have to be as disciplined as possible with our angles on defense and when we hit him, we HAVE to bring him down.

Next, mistakes can occur to hurt either team. The trick is to entice Lady Luck to smile upon you and frown on your opponent. Taking the advantage to the scoreboard should not, IMO, be too difficult for Mr. Rodgers and his associates.

The challenge will rest most glaringly with the GB Defense. The CB's and Safety's will have to play above and beyond the call of duty. The D-Line will need to deliver a HOF performance against Dallas's great O-Line. The GB Linebackers play will prove to be the key to this game. They must on one play blitz through to harass/sack Prescott or catch Elliot in their backfield. Then on the next play fool everyone as they drop into coverage to aid the secondary of the Packers. Yes, IMO, the small group of GB's Linebackers will be the key deciding factor in this Divisional playoff game.

How do you feel about the Defense's chances next week after this impressive performance? They single-handedly kept the Packers in the game. Yeah drops didn't help the Giants but they happen and even if the Giants put up 13, game is still manageable with 5 minutes left in the first especially with the Packers getting the ball in the second..

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : 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 (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : 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

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

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

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games
