It is not going to be pretty. Rodgers and Lacy are gonna light them up 38-17. One Kaepernick fumble, two INTS (possibly the wind blowing them where they shouldn't go), lots of mistakes by the pampered California players, Nelson and Boykin with TDs, Starks gets one on a screen pass. TWO Niner DBs may not even play due to hamstring injuries, so I expect a lot of three wide receiver sets and we have four that they will struggle to cover.

Pack 21 Niners 14. The Niners have the better team... but the Pack takes advantage of San Fran's inexperience with MIDWEST cold and comes through in the one and done scenario.
SF has averaged 283 passing, 199 rushing and 36 points in the 3 games the past 2 seasons. I haven't seen anything that changes that domination by the 49ers offense. I'm not banking on "weather" being an advantage for us.
41-27 San Francisco.
Pack wins
People forget Kaepernickle is a Wisconsin boy. They don't forget that once you go to California, you become dummer.
Low scoring affair, Pack 14, 9er's 13.
Great game the first week at SF, Rodgers was very precise and sharp. Its not been a good matchup for GB, BJ Raji needs to look at his 2010 season and then look in the mirror. If GB and contain Gore from getting explosive plays, I do not believe Kaperstink will be accurate enough in the passing game to make the difference
GB 27
SF 24
I am not good at picking games, but if the Packers win there will be a mass suicide watch at Bristol.
What ya mean it's not goin to be pretty? Ya. The scenario you described was awesome!

HEY!!!!! Easy with that dummer statement!
Cold weather leads to many turnovers---the Packers win this battle and the game 24-17
I see no reason why the Packers should win, which is why they probably will... or won't.
Disagree
correct.
21-17 49ers. I hope I'm wrong.
I think the cold hurts us.
the Niners are a more physical team, have the advantage in defense and running game.
ultimately our D folds and the offense stalls in the red zone too often
28-19 SF
You always reminded me of Brett Somers.
I see your Fannie Flagg and raise you a Charles Nelson Reilly.
That must be a raise equivalent to a blue chip.
Green Bay 30 V San Francisco 24
One of the best game shows ever on TV!!! The chicks really dug Richard Dawson....always picked at the end.
Last 9 games this defense has given up on average 30 PPG. They can't stop the run, they can't defend the pass, they can't rush the QB, and they can't force turnovers.
Pack will need to score 30+ PPG to have a shot in this one and will have to force a turnover most likely. Offense will have to do it's best to keep the defense off the field as much as possible in this one. Vernon Davis, Crabtree, Boldin, Gore, Kaep...I don't see any way they stop them from doing what they want
I think the offense will be up to the challenge, and it sounds like Carlos Rogers will be out, which helps. I just don't know if Rodgers can overcome the terribleness of this teams defense
SF - 38
GB - 28

I took you for more of a Nipsy Russell guy.
I always liked the double-entendres that the Gene Rayburn and the celebs had going on...and later the host was Dick Dawson....

That's right...weren't they husband and wife?
I know Brett Somers was married to Jack Klugman.
BTW...agree with CAPackFan
49er's: 28
Packers: 21
but maybe the cold will help us pull out an improbable win....
The Niners have superior line play, which leads me to think they win the ball game. The x-factor is the cold weather, but it works against both teams. The notion that this is "Packer weather" is great for fans to talk about, but players from neither team like playing in it.
The weather causes turnovers and GB will have to go +2 in that area to win it. I think they do.
GB - 27
SF - 24
I guess SF is going to practice at RN Field on Saturday... when the high is 26 degrees. When they step outside of their hotel in Appleton Sunday morning they're going to feel that sharp pain on the face that only sub-zero temps can do. Man I hate that ****...
Really? Why would the Packers allow them to practice on their own Practice Field.
Why not tell them that Appleton High School has a nice field to practice on...since they stay in Appleton anyway.
SD: My guess is that it's a NFL rule.
Well stated Chilljonya....enough pussy doom and gloomers around here.
F the ers
Still need a reasonably competent NFL defense to win in the playoffs and that's the difference in the game.
Packers 27
Niners 38
