It's on to Green Bay

This will be the Pats toughest test playing on the road at Lambeau. All the Networks will b buzzing about this game. I'll b curious as to how Vegas plays this. I suspect the Pats will be a 3.5 pt dog

Going to be a good one

I had this game penciled as a loss since the schedule was released, but you know what...

With the way this team is playing, I feel pretty confident they're going to go into Lambeau next week and win.

Should be a good one.

If you bring up the prediction thread for the tough 6 game stretch earlier this year you will find my post predicting 6 wins..

I'm 4/4 so far and still believe I will be 6/6 after San Diego. It'll be a great game but I still think we will take it

i also had it penciled in as a loss...but this team is very good...they could very well win this one

Packers' D is average. It's their offense that we need to stop. I think it's similar to Broncos game.

I see a Patriots win. Not a blow-out, but a win.

at what point are the patriots going to stop having their "toughest test" every week its a new toughest test.

they are the best in the league...every team wants to knock them off now

This will be a fun game. The issues I see:

1. I expect us to play most of the game in sub, and believe that we have the horses in the secondary to make things difficult for Rodgers. The keys will be (1) limited big plays off of breakdowns, (2) limited Rodgers from extending plays, and (3) keeping Eddie Lacy under control while playing in sub.

2. On offense, I don't think GB can stop us. It is mainly a question of executing well, and not leaving too many points off the board.

Packers Offensive players that need to be accounted for:

Nelson
Cobb
Quarless
Lacy

Rodgers moves the football through these guys.

Shut down Cobb with Revis. Bracket Nelson with Browner and a S. Collins on Quarless. Cover Lacy.

I wonder if Browner gets Nelson with safety help while Revis shuts down Cobb?

Lacy is a tough RB that catches, too. He is fast.

Yes, and Andrew Quarless is an underrated receiving TE. Kills zone coverage.

I think this is the first "Brady vs. Rodgers" bowl game.

Nobody is hotter than both teams right now. This is going to be crazy. Will be billed as likely SB preview....but I don't want to jinx it and say that....

Brady vs Rodgers 1.5, Rodgers played half the game in 06 after we knocked out Favre. Rodgers has NEVER scored vs the Pats

For the last several weeks we have played division leaders and handled them all, now we have one more against GB.....Just saying ..

I think the winner of this game (Brady vs Rodgers) will end up winning the MVP this year.

Pats win 35-21. Amendola with a back breaking kickoff return to the house in the 3rd quarter.

McCarthy quits after the game and joins the Jets.
