Wednesday is 1st day mandatory reports need to be filed.
These are usually estimates becsuse most teams haven't been practicing on Wednesday.
We probably won't hear anything except the usual fp dnp statuses yhis week.
I will be watching the waiver wire to see if The Packers bring in another kicker.
Thry do that, then Crosby's inkury may be bad enough to keep him out.

There are a hundred reasons why Green Bay will win and dozens of reasons why they could lose.
A look at who they played during the regular season adds to the list.

Tampa:
@ Saints L
@ Bears L
GB Home W
Saints Home L
LAR Home L
KC Home L
Home 1-3
Away 0-2
Overall 1-5

Green Bay:
@ Saints W
@ TB L
@ Colts L
Bears Home W
Titans Home W
@ Bears W
Home 2-0
Away 2-2
Overall 4-2

Tampa did not beat a playoff team, in the regular season on the road. Green Bay did not lose at home. Tampa's only win was against GB but as Aaron said, that game was an anomaly. Clearly Tampa won in the playoffs. If they didn't, they wouldn't be coming to Green Bay this weekend. One can also say, they won twice on the road in the playoffs and odds are they will lose this time.

Like I said already, the turnovers to me are the reasons Tampa beat N.O.

So if the Packers play errorless game, they should be ok.

I'm hoping playing at home makes a huge difference. I would love for the Packers to just mop the floor with the Buccaneers and win 45 - 3.

Certainly interceptions and fumbles that favor the Packers are always welcome. Additionally, the Packer offense scoring TDs/FGs will be challenged by TB, but GB will score a respectable amount of points with no panic or reason for excessive concern.

The key to this game is stopping TB from scoring. The only proven way to stop a Tom Brady lead offense is to stop Tom Brady. He can't be allowed to stand in a protected pocket and leisurely throw to his receivers. He must be rushed, hurried, flushed out, perused, panicked, and sacked. GB's defense has to stay in his face on every play and not let that man breath. He should regret that he came to GB to play football.

Stopping the rest of the TB offense will boil down to playing solid disciplined defense. Yes they will run for a few 1st downs and even get a few 25+ yd pass plays, but remaining focused on stomping the hell out of Brady is the prime concern. I've taken special notice over the years of games where a Brady lead offense lost and stopping Brady was how it was done.

That’s what I’ve been saying all along. Brady is a statue in the pocket. The way to beat him is to harass the heck out of him. Once he gets comfortable in the pocket, he can kill you.
That’s how he beat New Orleans last weekend. He got too comfortable.

.Brady has been a statue for 3 years....and everybody knows it.

It's one thing to know it, and another to exploit it....many have tried, few have succeeded.

If we run the set with D Smith in the middle, i.e. potential 5 rushers, then we can stunt, slash and game our way to him.

Further, I hope we jump some routes and if we get fooled on 'double-moves' grab them and give him the 5 and the first down.

I think this game is going to be won (like most games are) at the LOS. We have another stout group in box coming into Lambeau... we need to be better than our first match up. If Rodgers has time, I think we can pick on this secondary some. I am concerned here. Sure would help if Vea is still out so we can keep them honest in the pass rush and run on them some.

Flip the script to the Packers on defense, we have to get pressure on Brady, especially up the middle to make him move a bit. I don't like our matchup if he has time, our secondary has improved over the year, but it is still prone to huge holes in our coverage. We have to keep him concerned about pressure IMO.
