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 (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)
