Last year Minnesota pulled a Dallas, is how I look at it. The Cowboys have been artificially winning games for years. What’s funny is its the same story in the playoffs every time they go. I just had a memory on Facebook pop up the day after they lost this year. It was from 2 years ago and was clowning the Cowboys for losing. Which means we are only days away from THIS popping up in people’s memory feeds:
We don’t know that. They might be fresh and rejuvenated. 3 weeks off isn’t gonna make them forget how to play. If they come out rusty at all, I expect them to shake that rust off very quickly.
It’s one of these right? rusty or rejuvenated. That’s the big question.
The other wrinkle is whether or not GB coming off a short week and playing on the road back to back might be a bit worn down and or sapped of some of that enthusiasm they’re riding at the moment.
I hope it’s a PHYSICAL game so that whoever we play (assuming we TCOB sunday) FEELS the pain all the more when we lay the wood the following week!
Yep. If I’m the Pack…sell out to stop the run and make Purdy beat you. It will probably fail… but there is a chance Purdy throws some int’s… he’s had a few bad games this year.
Well said! History of insane ref calls and miraculous plays against us every time we played the Packers, make me root for SF. I think we match up well with San Fran too.
besides…rooting for Cheeseheads is sacrilegious for me.
