ONE GUY AT A TIME MAN!

But no, I don't see the Packers defense being able to stop the Cowboys running game at this time

If we don't give up big plays like last time, I'm very confident. The Giants have a better defense overall, but the Cowboys can lay the wood with Sean Lee back there.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

In theory the Packers offense has a number of mismatches against the Cowboys defense, but Packers could have off throws, or dropped balls... and Sean Lee problems.

Wow, haven't even played Giants yet and we're worrying about Cowboys? Pump the damn brakes!!

One game at a time. Let's get though today then spend a week talking about Cowboys if we win.

Prescott is not Manning, Dallas is not going anywhere.

In this threads 1st post I said, "IMO, GB can compete against the Dallas Defense, what bothers me is can GB contain the Dallas Offense ?

How well the Packer Defense plays will determine this playoff game. This Dom Capers Defense must not only stop this seasons league leading RB in Ezekiel Elliot, but run with and defend Receivers like Dez Bryant, Jason Witten, Cole Beasley, and others. Can they do it, I believe that they can.

IMO, they will need to keep Dak Prescott/ Ezekiel Elliot on their ass. Pressure the Pass by pressuring their QB all game and containing their RB by stacking the box with LB's that they won't know are blitzing or drooping into coverage as the plays begin. It will require a supreme TEAM effort. Fresh players will be needed throughout the contest to keep the pressure up against Dallas's vaunted O-line. The CB's and Safety's will have to play the best game of their lives as little help can be spared to help them.

All this means that all the Packer Defense will need to play on a higher level all day. They will need to make plays that must astonish us. I have seen teams do this in the past, but they were rare. Yet like finding a rare jewel, it IS possible. I have felt the warmth of this teams heart, and it feels like the heart of a true champion.

We got this.

I don't see us beating the Plowboys.
(But I hope I'm wrong!!!)
I didn't see us blowing out the Giants, either.
When is the last time we were able to actually relax with time left in a game?
Was a nice change!

Mucky Tundra (7h) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (10h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (10h) : HUMP DAY

beast (10h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (10h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (10h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (10h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (10h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (10h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (10h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (10h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (11h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (12h) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (13h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (13h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (13h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (13h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (13h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats beast on 2024 !

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats porky on winning 2023 pick'em! (oops sorry)

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : Packers have $60M+ of 2025 cap space on paper TODAY.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Missed FG into a Lions TD; that'll do pig, that'll do

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : I'm rooting for the Lions to lose.
