Kansas City favored by 2

In sports betting the most important football stat is rushing yards. Its equivalent to who the starting pitcher will be in baseball.... It usually determines the winner of a game. I suspect this is why the Packers get no love from the guys setting the lines.

This logic seems outdated... right out of football from the 60's.

Last year, Atlanta, Washington, Tennessee, San Francisco, and Denver all finished in the top 8 in rushing. None of them had a winning record. Minnesota is 2nd and Oakland is 6th in rushing this year, but would anybody make them a favorite over more than 10 teams in the league?

It makes some sense, since teams that run the ball usually are ahead, but it seems strange to me.

You have to go per game not per season and in sports betting you only need to beat the spread... Maybe it's outdated logic but in the sports betting community its still the golden rule.

Good interview by Edwards. He was DMC last year, but survived and has his team pointed in the right direction.

What about his comment about GB going no huddle? Other than the 2 minute drill, I certainly haven't noticed that more than a couple of times this year. I didn't think it was something they did regularly at all.

I think the one time I noticed the no-huddle was when Brett was trying to cross up the Broncos who had to go from defending goal and 6 to goal and 1. The Broncos had to burn a time out to keep from takin a penalty for 12 men on the field.

This seemed to be another example of Brett having more control on the field than I recall him ever having before. If it is true that MM has given Brett substantially increased opportunities and means to change plays on the field then MM, for that alone, is doing well as head coach. Brett has returned to top five quarterback status in the NFL, and in the era of Manning and Brady that's pretty significant for a 38 year old.

the only thing KC will have for them will be Gonzales, since we cant cover TE`s. Johnson I`m not so worried about. The Pack have been able to control star running backs for the most part this season ala, Westbrook, LT, Peterson, Portis

2003 Home Loss 34-40 (bad loss as we gave them the game)

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.


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.

What happened ND?

I have NO recollection of that game. That was back when KC was a mini-powerhouse.

If I recall, that was an early season hot weather game at Lambeau when Ahman put it on the ground a time or two. It was after that game that speculation on what type of sleeve wear he should be wearing and was that a factor in his fumbling.

If I recall............

*sigh* but you never recall the grocery list, do ya?



:P

[esoxx]

Yeah, it's funny, KY doesn't recall the game whatsoever and here I remember it was "SleeveGate" in Green Bay after that game.

Umm, was that bread, milk and bananas or bread, milk and apples... I can never get THAT straight.

Since Monday I keep forgetting my coffee thermos is in the back seat of my car. Every morning I bitched about how I have to remember to take the thermos in...it's still out there.

And yet I can remember explicit details of mundane things that happened 20+ years ago. Go figure.

Top notch Packer fan you are. And I bet I speak for others when I say I love hearing details you guys bring to the table on certain games. Esp. the oldies but goodies.
Who cares about the grocery list? Hell, I can't ever remember my own list. :P

OK, the slimy sleeves of Green game. It all comes back to me now.

I can remember wins from 30 -40 years ago, but losses from a couple years ago just fade into the mist.

Fer instance, what happened in 2005? I've forgotten 3/4 of the season?

That's why there's a whole industry devoted to notepads for grocery lists, cause no one cares enough about them to remember them. And yes, I am amazed when you guys pull games out of your head that I would never remember without you.
