Who knows?

House, King and Burnett get back, will be a big boost for the defense.

Looks like another makeshift O-line.

Being home is the only + I see on a Wednesday.

Read where the line on this game went from Packers -3.5 to Packers +6.5.

Only one player can effect a Vegas line by 10 points.

Taking The Packers and the points!


Packers 24
Saints 23.

I don't see us doing much the rest of the year. I'm hoping they prove me wrong!

The Packers have a history of playing some of their best ball when the experts don't give them a chance. As McCarthy once said "We're nobodies underdog". The problem is the Saints have looked real good the last few weeks, if the Packers would have played them in week 1 or 2 they looked a lot more beatable.

I think the Packers recover after the bye to string some wins together but until the o-line gets a little healthier I'm taking a hot team like New Orleans.

31 - 23 Saints

As a result of Aaron Rodgers injury and what he means to the Packers , postings this week have ranged from one end of the scale to the other . Some refuse to remove their rose colored glasses , while others see only the worst . I don't see GB falling to the level of a team like the Browns or soaring like the Eagles either . What I do expect to see is a below average team that might just be respectable and could get better moving forward . The reality of this situation dictates facing the fact that without Rodgers the Packers stock has dropped dramatically . I don't believe that he will or should return this season.

As for this week :

GB - 13

NO - 42

Unless the rest of the team seriously raises the level of their play, it will be a loooong season for Packers fans.

I'm excited about this game.
I'm excited to see how Hundley does with a week of working with the 1st string.
I'm excited to see how McCarthy tailors the game plan to fit Hundley's skills.
Granted we probably lose this one, but this game will be definitely interesting.

me too!

weather update, its raining and some wind too.

Hundley has 10.5 inch hands. That's going to help him grip the ball better.

Brees hands are smaller. He's going to throw some balls the Packers can pick off. its up to them to pick them off though

LETS FUCKING DO THIS!!
