    So I don't want to dimish the meaning of today's game, and should post this in 2 mondays but I will forget by half time today.
    Reading a web site named advancednflstats.com this am and came across an interesting article.
    Do teams have an advantage after a bye week ? by Denis O'Regan. There's been some interest recently on various blogs concerning the perfo...

    It talks about team preformance after a bye week.
    I have noticed some people talking about how @SD is going to be a real test, and I think it will be very tough as well. I do think the packers will be favorites going into the game, which according to this article tends to indicate good things after a bye.
    The end point of the article is that a favored road teams after the buy win 80% of the time, which is good for us. His sample size is 72 which should eliminate most sample size error.

    Speaking of 80%, the Packers are 4-1 under McCarthy after the bye week. Their only loss was an overtime loss in 2008 to a 7-0 Tennessee team. I think there's a really good chance the Packers are undefeated going into Detroit on Thanksgiving.

        it's the journey that makes it so special though.
