Looking to the 15th - Atlanta or NYG?

good point...

I wonder sometimes...what IF MM had the balls to tell BrINT he wasn't going to start the 3rd Quarter of that NFCCG against the Giants. MM could've told the team that the cold was affecting BrINT's throws and he wanted to go with a more mobile QB to be able to run out of the pocket and keep the chains moving.

Based on what we know now, I don't think many players would've disagreed with MM.

and...I believe, we would've won that game in regulation....even as bad as our Defense played.

Either, I don't care. I just want it to work out so we can play the Lions. I want Rodgers to run up the score, and then at the end of the game, run over to Suh, and Discount Double Check fat boy right in the face.

Fair point, but so are we. When we played the Giants a few weeks ago, it was with an OL missing both Sitton and Clifton. It should make a big difference having them this time around to help neautralize that Giants DL. We also were missing Starks at RB and both Bishop and Hawk at ILB. If it is the Giants, I like our chances with all these guys back.

Don't overlook the Giants running game

Bradshaw and Jacobs can be a very effective combo just like Turner and Snelling for the Falcons

What concerns me more about the Giants is not so much their offense but that DL with Tuck and Osi and Pierre-Paul. They can flat out wreak havoc like no other team in the NFC can with the pass rush upfront

I'd take the Falcons matchup over the Giants matchup in a heartbeat. The Falcons know they are the Packers biatch, whereas the Giants will not be phased or intimidated at all coming into GB

Giants running game has been awful this year.

but the mathematical probability of flipping a (fair) coin "heads" 23 times in a row is very, very slim. While the individual flip of each coin is bound to 50/50 odds, the bigger picture is not.

I agree that the Falcons would be better but if the Falcons win, they will have confidence, a strong running game and good receivers...we'll see...bottom line, Packers are 21-1 in their last 22 meaningful games...Go Pack Go!!

What's the mathematic calculation to include Phil Luckett saying Bettis called heads when he really said tails?

We also have to factor in the effect human stupidity / intervention has in the outcome:
