    Both teams can afford to lose this one. Both need it for home-field. Should be good.

    Packer Report ‏@PackerReport 3m3 minutes ago
    #Packers 7-1 in last eight. Five wins by at least 21. Patriots have won seven in a row. Five wins by at least 22.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Revis on Cobb, double team Nelson. Packers better be comfortable throwing elsewhere. Rodgers and Adams need to get their rocky relationship figured out. I'd suggest some couples therapy with Dr. John Holmes, MD, PhD. Some trust exercises should be employed.

    The home team usually sets 3 points just for being at home so it is truly a pick 'em.

    3 points....for home field....so the Pack and Pats are considered equal.

    Enough to know some of the lines and sing "La-la-la-la" for the ones I was too drunk or high to understand. Or maybe Steven Tyler was too drunk or high to enunciate clearly. Or maybe both.

    FWIW, Pats have beaten the division leaders of the AFC North, West, and East, and the Lions. 3 of those were at home. They beat Indy in Indy.

    They barely beat the Jets in Foxboro, 27-25.

    Their 2 losses were on the road to >.500 teams. They lost to Miami in Miami and KC in KC.

    I'm excited for this game. It's a potential signature game for the Packers, and it's at home and not in the pesky primetime slot.

    I am inexplicably confident about this game. I fully expect a win for the Packers.

    I might need to start watching replays of that 2010 game and jab myself with a coat hanger, Colonel Flagg style, after every positive Packer moment to regain some perspective.

    I'd prefer you break your arm in the x-ray machine.

    I am too but its not inexplicable. We're unbeatable at home. The problem is that this team is eventually going to have to beat a good team outside of Lambeau if they want to hoist the lombardi and there is no evidence that they can do that. Or even be competitive.

    The Dolphins are borderline good.

    The road woes will continue, until they don't.

    They took another lead late against Denver in Denver. I think they qualify as good. At least they are now.

    They've got all of the elements that usually give the packers problems -- fierce edge rush, physical corners, and a solid rushing offense led by a good-not-great QB. They're not as talented as the 9ers of the previous 3 years, but they're a tough out.

    ya, but how good is Denver getting thrashed by a losing Rams team?

    Miami is a decent team with a 6-5 record.

    What defines a team as good to a great extent relies on the quality of that teams QB.

    Ryan Tannehill has had four games this season with a QBR > 80. He's also had four games with a QBR < 30.
