    If the defense plays like they did against the Bears we get destroyed by 20 minimum.
    Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

      They're an older team, and older players have more injuries. Aiyuk is out, Deebo, Bosa, Kittle, and McCaffrey have all been in and out of the lineup.
      IF Kittle plays, they will be a handful for GB bc Quay or Bullard vs. Kittle is a mismatch. McCaffrey is also a matchup problem but he might still be shaking off the rust, not sure. I have doubts that he's fully healthy.

      The SF D isn't what it was either, but they can still play.

      Coin flip game, but GB is at home this time. It depends on which team shows up.

        49ers coming off a home loss to an average Seahawks team, so their fans are probably feeling the same way.

          Hags took a melon baller to the Niners' Souls yesterday.

          Packers got lucky yesterday.

          See how they react, respectively.

            We’ve got a lot of hard games left.

            Niners always play us well - esp at Lambeau.
            Dolphins on a short week but at least we’re at home. They’re playing better.
            We have away games at Lions and Vikes and Seahawks.
            And home games vs Saints (playing well after firing coach) and Bears which we arguably should’ve lost to.

            I don’t know about you - but I could see us winning 4-5 more games at most and likely 6 or 7 seed.
            The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.

              We'll see. Packers are 25-5 under MLF from Thanksgiving on.

                This post says it all. These are not the niners of old. They are just old. Purdy’s feet will be the thing to watch for. He has picked up many critical 1st downs when defenses have locked down his rusting weapons.

                  Fox Late - Almost all of the country will get 49ers at Packers. Kevin Burkhardt and Tom Brady with the call. Northwest, including Alaska, and Arizona will get Arizona at Seattle. Adam Amin and Mark Sanchez with the call.

                      The game I have been waiting for since the playoff loss. While not a playoff game a loss puts the hated miners at very low odds of making the playoffs so almost as good as a dagger to the heart.

                        I hate to overstate the importance of a game, but this is an important game. You can't lose this game, likely meaning you have to go to their place in the playoffs if you meet them and expect a good outcome. You win and if you meet them its probably home again with the seed planted that you are the better team.

                        The only must win games are elimination games so its not that, but again, you have to take care of business in a game like this and NOT be thinking about Detroit on turkey day.

                          The Packers stayed inside the Hutson Center for Thursday’s padded practice.

                          Jaire Alexander (knee) & Edgerrin Cooper (hamstring) only players not participating. Jaire was on the bike.

                            We don’t play Det on Thanksgiving. We play Miami.
                            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.

                              Jaire is now likely out with a PCL.
                              He and Stokes are living on borrowed time on this roster.
