There has always a momentum changing single moment for everything that ended up great and special in life.

For the 1980 U.S. Olympic Gold Medal Winning Hockey team I think it was the the Olympic exhibition game against the Russians when they lost 10-3.

I feel No... I know.... This weekend is that moment changing moment for the 2009 Packers. It will not be a loss like the 1980 Herb lead U.S. Team, but a huge win. G.B. wins by 30 points.

The press may say "Oh it was a win against the Browns."

I say Bull Shit. Two wins in a row, the opportunity to build on wins, momentum, and confidence, goes a great way to a victory against the Vikes the following week.

Sunday is the moment the O Line builds confidence and believes in them self as a group. Belief is a powerful tool.

The O Line will not be perfect but they will be impressive compared to what we have seen. Aaron will be appreciative, and his numbers will show it, as he will lead the week in Passer Rating.

Packers will win this game by 30 points, and it will be the game that changed all of the momentum in 2009.

Trust me... I have never been wrong.

Definitely would feel like an opportunity to build that momentum like you say. It's an important game since the game after this is the Viking game part 2. We played a bad game against the Vikes the 1st time and we still had a good shot at beating them so I feel good about our chances this time in Lambeau. Hopefully the Steelers end the Vikes' streak this Sunday.

WB RP i like reading your posts even though i don't agree alot of the time 😛 This week we have alot of pressure because these are games we should win. We need to win these easy games because i can see us losing 6 of the last 8 games.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

That's two less than I expected from you. Don't the Lions want revenge and unexpectedly kick our asses? Or Hasselbeck going off against his old team, still making up for that OT interception?

Nice post RP, as usual. I just hope you're right. A solid performance by the O-line would be quite welcome. We'll see how we'll handle Wimbley and Bowens.

I think this is a Huge week for TJ Lang.. I think the team will let Clifton sit this weekend, but even if he starts I think Lang is going to get a long look on the left side. If this team has inspirations past December, they have to know what they have in Lang.

I think he will respond well.

I think this will be a "tone" setter for the Packers.. they need to be sharp and get rolling for next weekend... Get er' done.

Yeah I think this game has huge ramifications for our offensive line and therefore our play into the near future.

If Lang and co can show that they can protect Rodgers...

Look at the videos of Lang posted in our vid section. He is playing better than Clifton has played this year. As long as he keeps it up, he should play instead of Clifton. Let the flaming commence.

If Lang is the better option, as far as I am concerned he should play, that allows Clifton to get healthy and provide much needed depth at the left tackle spot. (BTW.. I still think Clifton shouldn't have been playing last week.. you could tell he couldn't push off that inside ankle.. )

As far as I concerned.. the best player for any given spot should line up and play.. I care less whom the name is that they are out performing..
