Don't know a lot about packers, but after checking some stats it
looks like we will be able to run the ball.
They are giving up 4.5yds per carry. To give some perspective.
They rank slightly above Cardinals 4.6

This definitely plays to our strength.
The combination of Ball control and stout defense looks
to be recipe for success.

Oh yea forgot about that.
Looks like we will be able to run the ball as well.
Their run defense is comparable to Cardinals.

Would that be the Cardinals' defense the Rams played seven days ago? The one that Akers rushed for 34 yards on 21 carries.

Realize Akers was coming-back from an injury and Whitworth is back but beating the Packers will be really tough.

Im sure plenty of Cleveland fans sat around and focussed on how tough it would be to beat the Steelers.

But yes- the Cardinals had an extremely stout game plan against our run. I waz surprised for sure.

I would not sell the GB running game short.

I think our D can do a great job of keeping it close but our O will have to be clicking.

A duplicate of the TB game from this year would be the best chance at winning.

To those of you that remember watching our playoff run of the 1989 season.
Something about this season's playoffs feels similar to me. I just get the feeling.



(1989 we were a wild card team, playing ALL playoff games on the road, and toughing it out until 2nd half of championship game)
Yeah but lets not end it with some phantom sackage.

I don't remember saying about it going to be easy.
I just said that I think we can run the ball on them.
The only thing I was saying is they are ranked 21st
in YPC allowed.
You good with that? Or do you want to continue to put words in other people's mouth's

NFC's remaining QB's..... notice anything different?

Well, there are a lot of differences lol. The most striking are that three are guaranteed HOFers and are ancient. Jared is the only young QB still alive in the NFC.

I read somewhere there are no QB's left in the playoffs between 26 and 38 years old. Just a strange year.

Outside of JG16? He's 26. And isn't Rodgers 37? Maybe it was 27 to 36?
