Pack shreds them early, but it's up to 38-30 at the end. Big night for the Giants passing, but Lacey has his best game yet.

I predict someone steals BK's Riunite and posts drunk.
Pack are at home with a whole stadium getting under Beckham's skin. Giants offense implodes and Packers win 17-3.
I predict....Randall Cobb has his best game of the season.
Pack are -7 and the o/u is 48. Both numbers are climbing.
Im gonna lock in the over 48 and hope to catch the Giants at +7.5. Packers are 0-3 vs the spread this year.
Pack 27 - Giants 24.
OBJ goes off for 11 billion yards and ESPN implodes with pleasure.

MM will need to rest him after he gets to 58 yds receiving and 12 yds rushing..he will be dragging.
Asked 4 prominent #NFL corners about OBJ. One said, "He is more emotional than other elite WRs. That is his biggest weakness.''

Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to failing to catch the ball at the left hashmark for a first down. Stall, the drive will. 
I think they're going to lose, and here's why: they cannot cover elite WRs. It's all set up... OBJ has a bad game against MN, NYG got handled by MIN, short week for NYG, Packers coming off bye, Packers should roll!
The Packers have given up a 200 yard WR in consecutive games. They're about to face the best one yet. This defense and particularly the secondary are a dumpster fire right now.
I don't think this team is going to start playing ball until November. Panic will ensue as MIN builds a big lead in the division. Then the real football will be played, and the Packers will make their move.
I think the opposite, across the board. we'll see.
I've seen nothing from the Giants this season to think they can beat the Packers at Lambeau. I expect D. Randall to have a very good game. Rodgers will have a better game this week than last week. Perillo shines on 3rd down and goes Bubba Franks with a 1 yard TD catch. Lacy rumbles for 80+. Starks with a couple of nice plays in the screen game.
Taylor goes unmentioned again.
I think GB wins, but in a close game. I think both teams will score points. Eli will put up big numbers and OBJ will light up Randall for a couple of TDs. Until Randall proves he can handle it, he'll have a huge bullseye on him the rest of the year.
In the end, the fact that the Giants pass rush is no longer a strength (4 sacks in 4 games) means that Rodgers should put up big numbers as well. I'll say a 30-27 Packer victory.

I'm beginning to worry we've seen peak Randall Cobb. I hope I'm wrong, but stats don't lie. This is a particularly illustrative one. The percent of times in which Cobb is targeted that he gets a first down. If you
2011 15 first downs in 31 targets (48%)
2012 45/104 (43%)
2013 -missed large portion of the year 18/46 (39%)
2014 71/126 (56%) - this is an amazing number given the volume of targets
2015 42/129 (32%)
2016 6/18 (33%)
Prior to 2015 he was 149/307 (49%)
The last 19 games he's 48/147 (33%)
The Packer offense in 2015 not only lost Nelson, but Cobb went from getting 6.5 first downs per game to 3.5 first downs per game with the same number of targets. Was it all Nelson being gone or did Cobb lose a step or two? Other teams seem to cover him with a safety or even a LB at times and he seems to have lost his elusiveness.

They have not.
We get gouged through the air in chunks again but turn Eli over often
enough to preserve a 31-21 win

Diggs could only catch 182. He sucks!
Packers 28-17. Pack leads early and NYG comes back after the half. Lacy gets 125 rushing yards. Jordy, DickRod, Cobb and Lacy each score TDs. OBJr gets double teamed and his frustration leads to an Unsportsmanlike conduct penalty which makes him angrier than before and he gets ejected for punching Eli in the head. Rollins and Ha Ha get INTs after the OBJr ejection.
Stop what running game they have and kick Eli's ass around.....alot.
GB will have no answer for OBJ. Close game with an ever so slight nod to GB just because its a home game.
It's week 4 of the post preseason. If the preseason had a bye. Which it kinda has for years.
"You can win any preseason game if you want to" - John Madden.
3-1.
Packers win by 14. Giants might score a lot due to Packers young secondary, but Packers offense rolls. They looked good against Detroit, but I think there was some points left on the field. Pressure Eli and game will be over. 35-21 Packers.
Close game, could go either way. If the Packers take OBJ away then they could win by two scores. But can they do what the Vikings defense did in taking away OBJ?
Since Marshall Newhouse did not participate in the Giants practice it is doubtful he will play. THE PACKER DEFENCE IS DOOMED
They'll figure out a way to smother OBJ...but then someone else will erupt. I'm thinking the rook Shepard has a bigger game. Or Cruz.
Anger, angst and frustration as Eli carves up the porous Packer pass defense. Lambeau is the difference.
Packers 27
Giants 24

It's still early in the season and there is plenty of time for growth and working out issues but this points to the same issue we had before the draft. Jordy may return to his #1 form but we've got nothing coming up in the ranks to replace him once his 30's start sinking his legs. And we've all seen what this O looks like without a #1. It's why I thought they just might take a WR in RD1 this last May. They've got a gaggle of #3's and 4's but that's it. After Adams' rookie year I thought he was next up but that was overly optimistic. We've had to draft D early for years now and that can't help but start to show on O eventually.
The Giants look like a very bad team to me thus far. The Giants have no running game whatsoever, Manning has looked really bad thus far, and their defense has not lived up to the shiny FA expectations.
This is a game where you'd like to think the Packers dominate given all the stars aligned in their favor. I could envision a Packers team that is firing on all cylinders getting a 28-7 type lead in the first half, extending that in the 3rd and coasting home.
Realistically, I'm still not sure I know what the Packers are. I expect the Packers to stop the run. I don't think that we will ever defend the pass with any consistency. I KNOW we will allow Giants huge gaping areas in the middle. I'm not sure that the offense is "on track" like the first half of Detroit, or if it's a mixed bag like the other 5 halfs played thus far.
I think this will be a 28-24 type game late, in which Green Bay's defense is forced to make a stop late in the game to preserve the win. As frustrating as Dom Capers D have been, they seem to make these late game stops more often than not.
