First team to 30 wins
I got GB by 17.
37-20.
Clay with another big day.
INT's by Tramon and Sam.
Detroit falls at Arizona.
Packers have a real opportunity here to prove they can compete for the NFC title. They've underperformed against other top NFC teams so hopefully they can get this win at home.
Packers 31
Eagles 23

I'm not sure what D will show up. No way would I eat all those points in a wager but if I had to pick a number I would guess 30 - 21 pack thinking that they are starting to go on a hot streak.
Turnovers will be key, as usual. Rodgers doesn't turn it over, and the more passes Sanchez throws, the more likely he will throw a couple of picks. McCoy could be a factor, but ever since he predicted 2000 yards this year, he has been average at best.
GB 30 Phily 20
Gotta have same game plan if they want to win. Get up early, force Sanchez to throw it more which should lead to an INT or 2
the longer they keep it close, the more the Eagles will gash the Packers with their running attack
Put some pressure on Sanchez and he'll make mistakes.
Pack 34-17
I worry a little bit about checkdowns to Sproles and McCoy. That's how I'd game plan against the Packers' D.
Doom and Gloom in my household.
Eagles 900. Packers 3.

Rodgers' awesomeness at the LOS works perfectly at Lambeau, not so well in other venues
Hence, the Packers have the advantage at home.
Note how many offsides/neutral zone incursions GB offense gets at home vs on the road.
I owe you an apology, sir. Played out just like you predicted so far in the 1st half.
You should (ironically) be posting like this.

Anyone predicting a blowout is setting themselves up to be disappointed.
I can see this game coming down to a 3 or 4 point swing either way. pretty much settling for a FG may end up costing a W for either team...
make no mistake, the Birds are good. just really a fine football team.
but, I give the edge to the home team, but not by 3... GB 31, Birds 24. and this with Rodgers engineering a perfect 4 minute drive to close out the 4th quarter for the final 7.
I think we will all be sitting on the edges of our seats in this one.
just the way I like it! I dislike blowouts... they get boring.
Hmmm. I guess I can and do sorta like blowouts...
