Basically, Green Bay = Minnesota, Chicago = Indy.
Sort of.
(This isn't about how these sets of teams play out against each other, it's about one being a contender, the other a pretender. Green Bay and Minnesota are teams that hover around 500... Indy and Chicago have been rolling over much of their competition.)
So, this week is the biggest real test until the playoffs... of course we can win against Chicago then go on a losing streak against sub-par teams, etc. etc. etc. But in all likelihood, this is the last chance we'll get to knock off a team we're not favored against.
39 minutes of possession time (like today) might not be a bad way to start... but we're also looking at a QB (Grossman) that performs unless and until you get to him with a big pass rush.
Are we up to it?
opinions welcome.
