We do better on defense this week, more consistently, though Charles does get some yards on screen passes. Ty Montgomery gets his first NFL TD pass on a screen himself, James Jones gets another TD, Pack is ahead 17-10 at the half. Eddie doesn't play but Harris and Starks get some major yards and there's a Janis sighting on offense. Long drive at beginning of third quarter leads to a Richard Rodgers TD, Pack grinds out the rest of the game to win 30-24.

Right now this is the Randall Cobb show.

Not with Cobb being less than 100%.

James Jones took a cold water bath and shrank 3 inches.  I think he is ready to star again. 

The sheer power of Aaron Rodgers is amazing.

Chiefs come to play Monday night off of their very embarassing loss.

Montgomery gets a TD, as does Jones and RRodgers, O line struggles against KC defensive front. Charles gets 2 TDs for KC--1 rushing outside and 1 receiving. Kelce gets a KC TD, late. Packer's defense gets 2 sacks on Smith. Pack wins a nail biter 24-21.

Considering the Chiefs allowed 31 to a Denver offense that only scored 14 through most of the game against Detroit (then finishing them off later due to Lion incompetence), I'm willing to wager GB won't be held under 30. I would say:

GB 31
KC 21

I think their D will get opportunities to hit Rodgers and will end some drives, but Rodgers is crafty and determined for all 60 minutes. You can give 110% and give him trouble for a half, but the onslaught continues until the game is over. That's a lot for a D, even a good D, to keep up with 60 minutes. They don't have an offense that is prolific enough to give their D breathing room, that D will be on its heals for all 60 minutes.

Good call. I'm thinking the same, with a defensive score and possibly a STs return for a score. Time for this Packers defense to shine. They've done well the last 3 halves, and will continue to build their new identity by rolling KC.

Gotta love homers....Listening to KC sports radio 810 WHB this morning. They did a very quick comparison of the two teams roster this morning.....Other then QB, the Chiefs are at worst a wash against the Pack at WR and O-line and better at the Pack when it comes to D-line, RB, TE, Linebacker, Safety and potentially CB. 

 

So based on that.... Chefs 56-Don't have a chance Packers 3

Although, to be fair, the Chiefs do have a solid team and with injuries to Nelson, Bulaga and Burnett, that assessment isn't too awful. I'd still take the Packers receivers, but if you add in the TEs it gets closer, and both have issues at OT these days, which is where most people look first at OL. Interior O-line the Packers have a clear edge, methinks.

Honestly, though, I wince whenever I see KC on the schedule.  I have too many memories of good Packer teams not being able to beat KC.  I had the option of going to this game or the game against Detroit in November.  I opted for the Lions.

Some year the Lions are going to win in Lambeau. I hope it's not this year.

 

Super Bowl team in 1996 lost to the Chiefs too. (in KC) Time to get off the schneid

Low scoring game. If the Packers were healthier, I think they'd win by 2 touchdowns. However, they are hurting at the skill positions on offense and I think the Chiefs are the type of team to take advantage. If you'd have said before the season that the Packers would play a game against a playoff caliber team without Jordy Nelson and Eddie Lacy and with Cobb and Adams both being significantly dinged up, I think most of us would have predicted a loss.

 

I'll say Chiefs 23-16.
