On Nov.1st the Packers will travel to Denver to play the Broncos. Both teams will be coming off of a bye week and both teams are 6 -0. The home team Broncos will field a very good Defense with an Offense lead by an aging QB that has many scratching their heads. The Packers will field a Defense that gave up 500+ passing yds against the Chargers and an Offense that has loosing WR's to injury and has had a less than 100% Eddie Lacy.

Both teams will be able to rest and recuperate before the Sunday night game.
What do you think will happen ? Will the altitude aid the Broncos ? Will the Packers get some of their injured players back and will they be 100%. How should the Packers attack this Broncos D ? Will we see the Peyton that we once knew and feared ?

Let the discussion begin !

Mile High stadium is a very tough place to get a win! I don't know what think about the Packers right now. They are struggling on offense, and giving up 500 yards passing yesterday, how good is our defense? There is no way to judge this game, but I would imagine we will be underdogs.

With fans like this, the Packers don't need to worry about the 12th man .

This game interested me, because you got Aaron Rodgers and Peyton Manning yet the defenses have been carrying both teams. Seems like Denver's defense keeps getting defensive scores.

I expect the Broncos try to do some of the things that the Chargers did. And expect the Packers to try to run it because the Broncos pass defense is so good... but I think the Packers have also been planning ahead and holding some things back as Edgar Bennett said, they're working Janis and Abbrederis into the offense more (and maybe have Adams back). But Manning does seem to have the arm strength and power that Rivers does so they might try to protect from short passes more.

I am conflicted about this upcoming road trip. 2 undefeated teams in consecutive weeks at their house.

A split, 1-1, would be a great result. I would take it. If I had to pick which one to lose, it would be the AFC matchup. Doesn't hurt as much in the playoff seeding.

Of course, they have a chance at 2-0, which would be spectacular. I will be making my SB plans if that happens. For that to happen though, they gotta beat Denver. 😎

Manning looks to me like he's losing "it".
So if the Packers play decent, they should be able to win.

Zero2Cool (2h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (2h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (2h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (2h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (2h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (2h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (2h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (2h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (3h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (3h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (3h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (3h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (4h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (4h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (4h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (4h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (4h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (5h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (5h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (5h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (5h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (5h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (6h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (7h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (7h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (8h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (8h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (8h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (8h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (8h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (8h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (8h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (8h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (8h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (8h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (8h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (8h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (8h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (8h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (8h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (8h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (8h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (9h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (9h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (9h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (9h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (9h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us

packerfanoutwest (9h) : falcons are already ahead of us

beast (9h) : Packers will get in

beast (9h) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen
