    I hope Love doesn't clean that up for them.

      Spent last 2 weeks in England, this is barely a home game given the sudden shift for them. If our D can do that to the Texans well balanced offense I would think we should be able to rough up a tired Jax squad. Lets see Love get a little more careful with the football in this one and win a snoozer something like 24-3.

        Really weird being 8 games into the season and having all your non conference games wrapped up. Packers looking to sweep AFC South, and it will be nice to face conference opponents the rest of the way.
        It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!

          Pretty good overview.
          Tank Bigsby could be a problem for GB run defense if JAX leans on him. They ran the air out of the ball in the 2H vs. NE, who are bad. Thomas looks to be a very good player and might already be their WR1. (They still have Christian Kirk and Evan Engram.)

          It's a young team, and historically speaking FL trips don't often go well for GB. Also, they might be looking past JAX to the DET game (and the bye) in the next two weeks.
          If GB doesn't overlook this team and just takes care of business, they should win this game comfortably. JAX has a lot of issues and GB is the more talented team.

          The injury reports might have a few things to say about this game as well, but there are reasons to expect GB to sweep the AFCS.

            Man, I dunno.
            Feeling more and more like a trap game to me. JAX is a sucky team in a sucky division in a sucky conference. GB favored.
            Big game with Detroit next week, then a bye to rest up, then the freakin’ Bears. Important stretch, hopefully the Pack doesn’t get caught sleeping at the switch or looking ahead even a tiny bit.

                How has their wealthy aristocrat Trevor Lawrence been playing? I haven’t heard much.

                If it’s a warm sunny day in Florida,look out.

                  Sunny with a high near 80 Sunday in Jacksonville. Kinda like Green Bay last Sunday.

                    I've never been super impressed with that cat. More hype than anything, IMO. For whatever reason, I saw a lot of bits and pieces of Jags games last year. He doesn't look particularly accurate to me.

                    Just checked, he's playing decently this year:

                      You are forgetting about the 5th AFC game against the AFC E 2nd place team. We play the Dolphins on Thanksgiving night.
                      But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

                        He played really well on Sunday.

                          I think the trap game was Houston. We had a helluva lot of things go wrong, and we still survived. If there's a worry here, it's looking forward a week. Good coaching, though, should take care of that. Love is a good learner. He's not likely to make more of the same kinds of mistakes.
                          What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

                            That's what a trap game is. You get caught looking ahead a week instead of focusing just on the opponent at hand.

                              Damn. I knew it was too good to be true. It feels like we are playing the entire AFC Conference this year.
