    I wonder how the ref decides when it's a hold, and when it's PI and 'spot of the foul'.
    Ball in the air - PI.

    I only shut down Darren Charles in a high school football game, but I knew that.

    I'm with Woodbuck. This game coming up against the Patriots is huge. The dangerous teams are coming out of the woodwork. If we want to be champs, home field is very important.

    Running in the sub 4.8's after getting back in shape. Who needs a shitty safety??!

    It's a statement game, but not critical. Non-conference, non-division opponent. It'd be good to get the win, but not critical.

    It would be convenient to get this win. If Detroit slips up once before the final game, it would be nice to have the chance to be up two games. ..

    Inasmuch as it doesn't have the tiebreaker weight of a conference/divisional games, you are dead on. And going into the second half of the season, I figured they needed to be 2-1 vs the Eagles, Pats, and Lions if I was going to start double-fisting the kool-aid.

    But this is a game the Packers have to win. It's against "the best", it's at home, and they absolutely need to build up that big game moxie.

    This is the big game they can most afford to lose. However, for crowing rights and the chase for home playoff games, its still a big deal. Just not disqualifying.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    I think that final game is going to be for the division and for the playoffs

    Or not.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

    That's kind of what I'm hoping for; winning the Division when playing for all the marbles will put a nice, sharp edge on the team.

    If we beat the Pats I think we can get a two game lead and home field

    That's why its a huge game
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    Agree, and they need to keep believing they're unbeatable at home to make that effective. They need this game.

    Oh good. Bucs getting better later in season. That's a good development.

    Colt McCoy experiment is working wonders for Washington, they have scored 3 on a bad defense. Colts up 14-3.

    The Saints came to Steelers to redeem themselves.

    They just took a 21-6 lead early in the 3rd Qtr.

    In the meantime... Cincy is doing all they can to throw their road game away In Tampa Bay.
