Beating the Lions in Detroit, like the Packers did. Unbelievable. The Vikings imploding against the Seahawks, at home. Fantastic! The Bears blowing one to the 49ers. The icing on the cake.
We're back in first place in the division, where we belong, we had a heart stopping win, and the rest of the division lost a game to us. I just don't see it getting any better than that!
I still want that #2 seed. I only want us to visit Carolina again. I think it could be a different outcome.

I Hope the Hail Mary will prove to be the turning point in the season. The Vikes got dominated at home today. That was fun to watch! Hoping we get our confidence back and take care of business!

I think the Lacy bit had a lot to do with the team not being on mark like they should have been. I don't think that situation is totally over. We're going to see more on it after the season is over. I think Lacy will be history.
This team is good enough to win without Lacy. If he's a disruption, dump him. It's a team game, and you have to be part of that team at all times.

I think thats why we're kicking the tires on Ball. we need a guy that can get some tough yards. but i dont think its al on lacy. Adamas just isnt the reliable hands guy you pick in the 2nd round. Adams has better hands we likely are 11-1.

Seahawks are now playing much, much better football. Packers still need to come up with a better receiving group if they want to score enough points to win in the play-offs. I am not sure Cobb, J Jones, Adams, Abbs, Janis as they are is enough. They would all really need to get hot at the right time and stay hot. Still got Dallas, Raiders, and ARIZONA, before the last game with the Vikes, BUT,, i think the Packers can have a 2 game lead on the Vikes by week 17.I just do not want to see the Pack go one and done again. To not do that, I think they need to find the right receivers. I just do not see Adams, Cobb and Jones being enough as starters to go beyond the regular season winning.

To play at a level that they can compete with the best, Cobb, Janis, and Abbs are going to have to show their speed. Abbs is also going to have to become the guy who can take the short passes in the crossing routes, and I think he can. We also need to see the offensive line healed enough that they are in sync, so Rodgers can get a little time to make his reads. Also, Richard Rodgers is going to have to build on this past week, and show he can work well over the middle. You need a big man like him, and a quick one, like Abbs, to sort out the defenders.
I expect Lacy to come on a lot, to show that he belongs there. If I recall correctly, there were issues about him in the minds of a lot of football people, before we even drafted him. Then he came into camp, overweight and out of shape.
One of two things will happen against the Cowboys. This team will show the home crowd they got the tools to win, or they'll try to coast, and if they coast, they're dommed for the remainder of the season.

If we cannot beat the Cowboys at home we do not deserve to even make the playoffs. I watched the game last night and they are extremely beatable. If we can't beat them we have zero chance against Seattle who is playing much better football now. It will be very interesting to see how much fight the Packers come with this weekend after getting a few days off to heal up.

Could not agree more. If we can't beat the Cowboys, might as well tank the rest of the season to get a better draft pick. At this point, the Packers have reached a crossroads. They can either rise up, or fail, miserably.
