Full article at Link
-Will LaFleur take the ball again if the Packers win the Flip
-Packers Catching Gibbs on a hot streak
-Lions Goff paying special attention to ball security
(packers caused 3 fumbles in Thanksgiving game last year)
-Packers have to be alert for special team fakes
-LaFleur expecting AG to remain in attack mode
2 things for me: Keep Goff clean |
Establish the run game.
Looking at you Oline.
Packers will be in our rearview mirror.
Yep especially with rain in the forecast in the low 50’s. Going to be a sloppy game IMO
I’m going to watch my stress levels–so I’m not a totally overwrought basket case. When, not if, I redline emotionally, I’m going to pause for some primal scream time. Then refreshed, I’ll come back for the carefully reasoned comments in the gameday thread.
This is the life I choose to lead. 
The game thread is always calm, cool and collected. 
When it comes to division games I prepare myself. Unless things are going poorly I don’t get tense about much of anything until the 4th. I just sort of prep myself for the idea that this is very likely to be a last possession game.
Last couple possessions I’m likely to be tense of course.
If this game goes like the last one in Lambeau then my team of destiny feelings start to kick in.
Amen, if the win like last year, we need to start planning a Den parade in February

PFT reporting Love will play.
Good. No excuses for them when we hammer them.
And honestly if it’s a bad weather game Love is far more apt to make mistakes. All they’d do with Willis is run, and in the rare moment they did throw it he has the cannon to render any rain/wind moot. Maybe not the accuracy, but our opportunities to take advantage of that would be much rarer.
Good. I’d rather face a sore groined Love than a running healthy Willis.
Honestly, one of the biggest keys to the game for us is Goff holding onto the football. We know it is likely to rain and he has fumbled at least three times these past two weeks, even though I don’t believe we have lost any.
Forecast.
Rain!
15mph SE wind
50F feels like 45
Iron sharpens iron!
Lead don’t sharpen jack.
Time to find out who we are as a TEAM.
