Well, if you want to be the best, you have to beat the best.
Hopefully Seattle will get knocked out by some lowly team before we have to face them!
Although, wouldn't it be sweet to go to their place and beat them???

Remember the Packers 2010 SB run? I think it was the Saints that got knocked off by a .500 team (was it Seattle?) when no one thought they had a chance.
It CAN happen. Especially when a team thinks it's "in the bag".

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Losing in New Orleans didn't help anything either, but our defense hadn't become very capable at that point either.

I'm not so sure we beat Seattle in Green Bay either, but we would have a better chance with the home crowd.

Seattle is peaking...we've lulled. If it's truly the hot team that wins it all then you can scratch us off the list despite our "chance" just because we're in.

I don't know what to think about us playing Seattle in Lambeau. Hawks did NOT want to go to Green Bay in late January. Honestly, who really does? 🤨 We're so much better at home...twice as good say the numbers when it comes to offense. I could be entirely wrong but it seems we've played some decent D on the road this year...even better than at home. Seattle is a bit overinflated...lost at KC...and really has beaten nobody of consequence unless you want to count Mark Sanchez and the Eagles and who really wants to do that. Seattle ain't unbeatable but to us they will be IN THEIR YARD. I'm sick of typing it but man, man, man, man, man that Buffalo loss stings like a nest of hornets. Just amazing we're where we are right now because of that gag job.

Do you see Atlanta or Arizona winning at Seattle? If so please pass me whatever you are smoking!

And the welcome them back to Lambeau and kick their asses for the 25th straight time [grin1] Wouldn't that be sweet? 🙏 I don't say that's gonna happen, but I give the Lions more chances to survive at Seattle than any other team left.

This "discussion" on whether the Packers win Seattle or not basically comes down to one 3 letter word for me CAN. Certain people on here have already determined that the Packers will not win in Seattle and that is fine. For me they have done a good job in explaining why they have this opinion and it is a legitimate one. Will they win? Maybe, maybe not perhaps with a leaning towards the maybe not (they won't be and shouldn't be favorites) but to me that is not the question to me the question is CAN they win? My answer to that is yes, I think they can. Not like in an "any given Sunday" chance either where the 2-14 team can knock off the 14-2 team if things go their way. That is why I will watch the game. If I didn't feel we had a chance I wouldn't bother watching.

I know a team that once won 18 games in a row and lost to a team that was 13 - 6 during the same stretch of time.

Football is not about records, it is about matchups. Do you really think the Packers are only 17 points better than the Buccaneers?

Looking at the schedule that Seattle has played over the last 5 weeks. I don't see any reason to believe they are near the team that they are getting hyped to be right now either.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!
