It's a bit of a tough opening four weeks, but it evens out. Super heavy divisional run on the back half of the schedule though.

not too bad last half as far as playing in bad weather with ari (away) and dal (home) being the toughest as far as competition.
Looks like 16-0 to me.
Back to back Thursday night games. Strange
Packers are in Denver on Sunday night.
I'm going to have to take 2 days off after that one.
This was the most exciting thread in the history of Packerrats. The suspense, the thrills, the chills. There were more enticing leaks than at an octogenarian shuffleboard tournament.
The opening of the schedule is complicated by the two new coaches and lack of film on the Bears with the Silver Fox.
And I am already angry about Week 2. July is going to be difficult.
Peyton Manning will be on pace to pass Favre in total passing yards either versus the Packers or the Colts.
That is a very sweet Green Package slate of games. Me very pleased!

Packers are playing their first home Thanksgiving game since November 29, 1923. The Packers won 19-0 over the Hammond Pros at Bellevue Park.
OK, who was at the game and can fill in the details?
One of the worst predictions for the season:
http://espn.go.com/blog/green-bay-pa...en-bay-packers
Predicting losses to Seahawks, 49ers, Broncos, Cardinals, and at the Lions. The only "big game" they'll win is against the Cowboys. It's as if this writer thinks the Packers have no shot in big games. Yes, I think those games will be tough, but to think the Packers can't win any of them? Ridiculous.
The 49ers are a shell of the past with Kaepernick regressing, the Seahawks could be a challenge, but the Packers showed they could dominate them if they didn't self-destruct, the Broncos are old (but still probably quite effective), the Cardinals have an injury-prone QB, and the Lions don't have Suh.
I can see losses to the Seahawks (because the Packers always start slow and the NFL likes scheduling big games early in the year) and Broncos (because Mr Regular Season) and maybe the Cowboys (depending on Dez Bryant vs CB#2), but none of the rest seem anything other than "normal football games that can go either way but should be wins for the Packers".

To predict a loss to the Seahawks at home is simply assuming a 2 game trend will continue. He might as well continue to write about soft n' small.
ESPN must not have flown him out to Seattle for the playoff game.
