How do you feel about the Defense's chances next week after this impressive performance? They single-handedly kept the Packers in the game. Yeah drops didn't help the Giants but they happen and even if the Giants put up 13, game is still manageable with 5 minutes left in the first especially with the Packers getting the ball in the second..

Next, mistakes can occur to hurt either team. The trick is to entice Lady Luck to smile upon you and frown on your opponent. Taking the advantage to the scoreboard should not, IMO, be too difficult for Mr. Rodgers and his associates.

The challenge will rest most glaringly with the GB Defense. The CB's and Safety's will have to play above and beyond the call of duty. The D-Line will need to deliver a HOF performance against Dallas's great O-Line. The GB Linebackers play will prove to be the key to this game. They must on one play blitz through to harass/sack Prescott or catch Elliot in their backfield. Then on the next play fool everyone as they drop into coverage to aid the secondary of the Packers. Yes, IMO, the small group of GB's Linebackers will be the key deciding factor in this Divisional playoff game.

The Packers defense strength is their run stopping skills, especially the interior... but they're not the best in the NFL... while the Cowboys run offense is the best in the NFL, and their OL is the best in the NFL... so strength vs strength the Cowboys offense has the edge over the Packers defense. Which might mean they can control the clock as well.

The big question is weakness vs weakness in the passing game... if the Cowboys offense also controls that over the Packers defense, then the Packers defense is in for a long day on the field. Looking at match-ups they got very talented WRs and TE... which could be spread the Packers out some.

I see this as a game where the offense will put up a ton of yards... if the Packers offense struggles then the Packers are in trouble. My hope is that the Packers can stop them in the red zone with a smaller field to defend, they could be better (at least I'm hoping).

Dak isn't the "great" qb that all the talking heads claim him to be - and without leaning on the running game it will all be clear. The rookie duo has had a nice run, but that will likely end Sunday.

Dallas is overrated, and their fans are assholes. Let's embarrass them and get ready for the NFC championship.

Packers - 45
Cowgirls - 27
