This is the first game I'm predicting the Packers to lose. Denver was hell to play at their house, KC is going to be worse. The Packers are riding high, I'm ready for a let down.

Packers have no running game and Favre can't throw deep.Originally posted by HarveyWallbangersI'm not sure how the Packers aren't favorted, but who really cares.I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud
They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

I was at that game. I've never seen a game where one team completely and totally dominated a team like Green Bay did vs. KC that day and found a way to blow it.Originally posted by Carolina_Packer2003 Home Loss 34-40 (bad loss as we gave them the game)
On the other hand, I have no idea how KC is 4-3. Minus Larry Johnson...EH. They have a decent defense I guess, but wow, that is a team that lacks talent in a big way if you ask me. Props to Herm."I would love to have a guy that always gets the key hit, a pitcher that always makes his best pitch and a manager that can always make the right decision. The problem is getting him to put down his beer and come out of the stands and do those things." - Danny Murraugh

Agree, and KC is coming off a bye. They will be rested, we will be...... heck, I don't know what we will be!Originally posted by esoxxThis game will be no day at the beach, especially coming off a short week.
I am hoping we take the adrenalin from Denver and stick it to them. I am hoping all those "Giants/ Cowboys are #1 in the NFC" comments on NFL.com will stir some extra effort out of our guys.
I also hope Denver kicks Detroit's collective butt! Just in case we go 6-2, we'd still have the cushion....

KC is a bad matchup for us. They have a TE that can expose a weakness in coverage. They have a running game that could pose some issues. Their defense is underrated. They are coming off a bye.
Honestly, I expect us to lose this one. It wouldn't be a bad loss. If you would've said we would go 1-1 on the road trip to Denver and KC prior to the start of the year, I would have happily taken it.My signature has NUDITY in it...whatcha gonna do?

I don't think KC is very good. However, I expect a letdown game this week. It has the markings. Coming off MNF, other team coming off a bye, not a lot of hype about this game. It would show me a lot if they won this game. This will be a tough game."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson

I have to tell you that Gonzo scares me - he's still one of the best at his position, and we have trouble covering the regular TE's. I just hope their QB can't get him the ball...
I'm not so sure their D will give us that much trouble. I think we'll be able to put points on the board.--
Imagine for a moment a world without hypothetical situations...

I think you can also make that argument about San Diego, and we all know how that game turned out.Originally posted by The LeaperKC is a bad matchup for us.

True, but we weren't the one making the road trip...and SD didn't have a bye week prior to playing us.Originally posted by cpk1994I think you can also make that argument about San Diego, and we all know how that game turned out.
Even so, their passing game torched us.My signature has NUDITY in it...whatcha gonna do?

Thanks, I had spaced on Seattle being a former AFC team, and wasn't aware that AFC vs. NFC inter-divisional play was 4 of 5. Good info.Originally posted by mmmdkSeattle was an AFC West team in 1999; divisions had 5 teams but NFC vs AFC only were 4 games.Originally posted by Carolina_PackerI looked up Favre's head to head against the KC Chiefs. Small sampling, but he's O'fer the Chiefs in his career.
1993 at KC Loss 16-23
1996 at KC Loss 20-27
1999 strangely we played 3 of the 4 AFC West teams, but not the Chiefs...Um, OK
2003 Home Loss 34-40 (bad loss as we gave them the game)
If Ty Law can play for having an interception in his scrap book against Favre, then perhpas Favre can play for a win against a team he's never beaten, home or away. Go get 'em Brett and team!
Here is a Presser from Herm Edwards with lots of comments on the Packers and an interesting perspective on the Favre bomb to Jennings.

Did anyone notice that at the end of that transcript there was a place where you could buy individual game streams like for this week's game if anyone needs it?"Greatness is not an act... but a habit.Greatness is not an act... but a habit." -Greg Jennings
