The Packers won 12 games and the NFC North this season while going undefeated at Lambeau Field, but they weren't able to host the NFC Championship game because the Seahawks had a better conference record. That better record included a home win over the Packers to open the season, one of four road losses the...

It is a great goal, but it still doesn't guarentee anything.
If your team has a total collapse in the playoffs like it did in Seattle, it won't matter where you play.

How the Packers handled the Cowboys in the playoffs has given me more confidence about "home field advantage" for them. That and Rodgers going something like a gazllion TD's to negative a billion interceptions has something to do with it too.

Hey, AR. Dude, that shouldn't be your goal. Your goal should be to effing dominate every team you play.

Dominate and it don't matter where you play. The Super Bowl doesn't have home field advantage. Super Bowl winners don't need it.

I soooo wish that Packer leaders would come out and start talking like they want to dominate. You may not end up dominating, but if you don't strive to, you will not.

Domination isn't an unintended consequence that happens when you have a good year. Domination is an intended consequence that happens only when striving to dominate is at the core of your being.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

A month into the season, the Patriots, Packers and Seahawks were not projecting to be in the playoffs. Broncos, Arizona and Detroit were dominant teams. Look where the season ended. Some teams got better and some faded.

I don't feel that a team can dominate all year long and carry it into the playoffs. The season just throws too many obstacles; injuries, drama, etc. If you run a marathon, it doesn't matter how big a lead you have at the midpoint. Only the finish. 2010 and 2011 are perfect examples. In 2010, Packers got stronger as the season went on. Won the Super Bowl without dominating. 2011- they were the best team in the league for the first half and then eventually faded. Early domination didn't matter.

If they come out slow, then we’re probably looking at another year ending in disappointment. If they come out dominating, then they received the message from their collapse in Seattle.

I know people will say they started fast in 2011, but they were coming off a Super Bowl title. This is different. They’ve had three straight years of bad Septembers. They collapsed in Seattle. I don’t think they’re going to fool around. With the right off-season decisions, this team could get off to 2007 Patriots like start. Losing in Seattle could to the Packers what losing in Indianapolis in ‘06 was to New England.
