My original prediction was Sea 38 GB16

I think I'm going to amend that down a bit, hoping we keep it closer...

Sea 27
GB 16

Pack 20 , Seagulls 14

Thirty-Seven votes. That's not everybody.

No bragging or I-told-you-so without a vote.

Voters 37. This poll is closed

I heard on Homer that in 49 out of 50 states, the public is predicting Seahawks. In Wisconsin, 74% pick Packers. Not sure where this data came from.

I'm not predicting because it is no fun to pick against the home team.

Exactly. Did PB really make this thread? Arrogant prick, if it don't happen his ass is banned for a month. You getting drunk already PB?

Still ALIVE!

Yeah, I actually counted days correctly. For a time I thought i had left it open until tonight. Never bothered to check the actual posted expiration date.

Too many times in big games, the Packers have to deal with a collection of injuries. Last year, Neal and Shields lost early. Game one this year, Lacy and Bulaga lost. Even the Superbowl Woodson and Driver. Packers can overcome that stuff when either offense or defense remains on fire. A hobbled Rodgers? A defense shaky against athletic QBs? Packers are in a groove, but karma and a very good team oppose them. Seattle 27, GB 24. Hope I'm wrong.

Packers going to win today. They are like the 2007 and 2011 Giants.

[wist43]

Packers do not fair well as big underdogs... including this years opener to the Seahawks in which were -6 pt dogs.

The line has moved from -7.5 to -8 pt underdogs.

I hope so... I really do - will be yelling at the TV until my BP gets too high, or the game becomes a blowout
