WHO TERRIFIES YOU in the PLAYOFFS

[Striker]

No one terrifies me. Yeah, the Seahawks defense is "rounding into form", but they're doing so against a QB lineup that included Stanton, Kaep, and Sanchez. All of whom I would classify as average QBs (Kaep is a great athlete, average QB).

The Packers have held serve against an equally shitty lineup of QBs, but at least they contained Brady in between, showing some capability they haven't in the past.

Just get HFA, and don't play dumb. Win games.

Bach. He got whipped twice by Kroy Biermann. Bulaga seemed to stand up better in pass rush.

Homefield is very important for the passing game and Rodgers health.

The Packers D scares the hell out of me in the playoffs.

Rarely do I agree with Rutnstrut, but I do in this case.

After last night I'll admit some concern:

In Week 14 Bills @ BRONCOS and of note in this game and RE: Week 15's huge game Packers @ Bills.

Bills QB Kyle Orton tied the Bills' franchise record with 38 completions and threw for a season-high 355 yards Sunday.

Also the Bills 'D' held Peyton Manning to ZERO TD's and that ended a streak of 51 straight games with at least 1 TD.

GO PACKERS !

Yeah, I would have to say packer's D scares me the most. My hope is our offense continues to overpower our opponents and the D shows just enough to got er done. My fear is last night's D shows up at an inopportune time and we are forced to start talking next season.

I have a question. In the 2nd half last night, our defense used various combinations of single coverage on Jones as well as zone coverage primarily when he was lined up in the slot. Did our choice of using a single high safety in order to help with the run keep us from double covering Jones? I'm concerned that we didn't adjust our scheme when we saw that Ryan was targeting him. I hope that doesn't point to a problem if we make the playoffs.

If the Packers would not have had a comfortable lead the entire game I think you'd have seen more help toward Jones. That would leave other weaknesses in the D though so I think Capers played it straight up given that the game was never really in question. They went with Jones and Neal at DL for a significant portion of the 2nd half along with Peppers out wide with his hand down so I think he wanted to generate more pass rush with their 4 or 5 best rushers but that didn't really happen. Bottom line is there are concerns with the D but I'm just not convinced they're defensive philosophy-related.

As to original post the obvious answer is Seattle. They match up well with our O and are good enough on offense to score against this defense. Their offense isn't as potent as it once was though so while the Packers have concerns, so does everyone else including Seattle.

Should be an interesting finish!

OFFENSE:

GREEN BAY NO. 1 and Buffalo NO. 25.


DEFENSE::

BUFFALO NO. 2 and Green Bay NO. 18.


SPECIAL TEAMS:

BUFFALO NO. 5 and Green Bay NO. 18.

The Green Bay Packers have much to improve moving forward.

Seattle’s having fun, living in the moment, scaring the heck out of the NFL

The Seahawks’ three-game win streak is based on trust, familiarity and something unexpected: the fun factor. The rest of the NFL should be very worried.

Larry Stone ... Seattle Times columnist

That's not a team we need to be concerned with right now. The Packers need to defeat the Buffalo Bills with their NO. 2 Defense and with a QB that can put up pretty good numbers when he's on...Kyle Orton who has completed 64.7 % of his pass's. Buffalo has a decent offense and WR's to be covered. Watch out for Sammy Watkins, Robert Woods, Scott Chandler and Chris Hogan who have combined for 14 TD's.

I know Jordy Nelson has 12 but Buffalo can play defense.

Check out their statistics:

After this game the Pack travels to Tampa Bay and will get that one to a 'W' but next it's Week 17 and the Mighty Lions will be @ Lambeau Field and likely in a position to upset the apple cart.

The Green Bay Packers should take all three games but a should is a far cry from getting it done.

It's now simply about respect for every opponent and one opponent at a time.

GO PACKERS !

Weird they're so open about it:

"But if they won’t say it, I will: The vibe is back. The confidence is back. The reckless abandon is back. The elevated play is back. The fun is back. The cockiness is back. The adderall is back."
