I believe terribly inferior teams can beat excellent teams when they inferior team is at home. I can't recall a brutal team beating a superior team in the superior team's yard.

Tennessee at KC

All this year. The gap between any one of the above is larger than the gap between the Packers and Seahawks; and in some cases quite significantly.

Packers beating the Cowboys at home with a one-legged QB in the Divisional Championship game to play for the Conference Championship = C-O-N-T-E-N-D-E-R

I agree we're unlikely to beat Seattle unless AR can move better than he did at Dallas. Does that mean I don't think we can beat Seattle? No. Would I bet money on it? Not much.

That doesn't make the Packers a terribly inferior, brutal team. It makes the Packers a team with a serious injury to their #1 player, a player that is the #1 player at his position in the league (IMO).

blah blah blah blah Packers suck blah blah blah blah blah Packers suck blah blah blah Packers suck..I'm a Green Bay Packers fan--fans of your ilk are just homeys who have no clue how badly the Packers suck...blah blah blah Packers suck...

Final 4 are contenders and Packers officially made it to the final 4 and beat another contender in the process.

Therefore the Packers proved that they are contender!!!!

They have proven to be "contenders" but they certainly aren't "dominant".

Anyone who thinks a team who makes it to their conference championships game isnt a contender needs to stop watching football and reevaluate their selves as a fan of the Packers or football in general. Packers are clearly contenders and SEA has shown signs of weakness and are beatable despite all the doom and gloom haters on here. Are they tough at home? sure. Does it make the game harder since Rodgers is injured? yup. Does that mean an automatic L? hell no.

No doubt they beat the hell out of those shit offenses but they were shit offenses. Rodgers, even with one leg, and the Pack are a bigger threat than any of those last six (and the Panthers for that matter).

Is it Sunday yet?
