So evenly matched. They come into the playoffs with a slightly better front seven. I'll take Rodgers and our run defense.

---

The Green Bay secondary is so scary it is difficult to ever pick the Packers. Especially on the road. And after taking NYG and the cowgirls I am pretty sure it will be my fault if GB loses.

---

The secondary scares me too, but by and large they've been overperforming given the talent we've got out there. Biggest thing we HAVE TO START DOING is catching INTs that hit our DBs in the hands. Absolutely have to.

Distraction? 😛

The only thing that gives me hope is that the winner goes to the Superbowl and Atlanta can't go to the superbowl...

When a tree falls in the forest but nobody is there....

If Matt Ryan makes some horrible throws can we pick him? Because Randall and Gunter are usually not even looking at the ball, they chase the WR and when the WR catches the ball they hug them for a few yards until the WR gets tired or runs out of bounds.

I think we will be better then we were against them in the regular season. A lot of our guys didn't play in that game.
It will be tough,.....but then again, so have all the last 8 games.

Anxiously awaiting Kevin's prediction.

Packers and Falcons both surprise everyone and have problems moving the football most of the game, both teams play a little sloppy with both teams turning the ball over twice. Packers eek one out 23 -20 on another last second Mason Crosby FG.
