Question is were to put Matthews... I'm thinking ILB... Packers need to slow the Cowboy's run down first (unless they forget about running it which they have done for short periods of time) and then focus on their #1 wr and te. That would leave the other WRs in a lot of one on ones... but I think our CBS should be able to handle their other WRs.

Also I hearing a number of Packers fans talk like Cowboy running game should be no big deal after watching the Lions game. Remember we don't have Sue up front like they do. Which is another reason I want to move Matthews to ILB ... and I remember hearin about something about the Cowboy's running it up the middle more than most teams

Where to put Matthews?

He is going to be everywhere!

Playoff football Dim will bust out defenses that haven't been used yet.

Confuse Romo and he will melt under the pressure.

The player to keep an eye for a big impact this game will be Julius Peppers. I think come Monday the Cowboys will have nightmares about what he's done to them.

I don't think he's ever been on a team this talented playing this well with an MVP quarterback before. That said, he's gonna amp up his teammates big time.

Let's take a quick peak as some of the key match ups going into the NFC Divisional match up between Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys.

Aaron Rodgers vs Rod Marinelli
Can you name any defensive coordinator that would have the edge over Aaron Rodgers? I can't think of one and surely a coach who lead a team to an 0 - 16 record doesn't have said edge.
Big Edge: Aaron Rodgers

Tony Romo vs Dom Capers
Teryl Austin dialed up some well timed blitz's that got Romo off his game quite a bit and while I think he might be a better DC than Capers, the edge here goes to Capers because he has better talent depth than Austin.
Slight Edge: Dom Capers

Eddie Lacy vs Bruce Carter, Rolando McClain & Anthony Hitchens
If McClain is starting and is as 100% as a NFL player can be at this stage of the season, the edge goes to the LB group. McClain is the key cog to this defensive group and if his concussion like symptions are nothing, it could be a 3 yards and dust for Lacy.
Edge: Dallas Linebackers

DeMarco Murray vs Julius Peppers, Sam Barrington, Clay Matthews III & Mike Neal
Murray has averaged 4.7 yards a carry during the regular season racking up 1,845 yards. That's over 115 yards per game and the Packers defense has been giving up around 80 yards rushing per game the last half of the season. The latter stat is more of an illusion and Murray has the edge here.
Edge: DeMarco Murray

Jordy Nelson & Randall Cobb vs Brandon Carr & Orlando Scandrick
The Packers top wideouts have snagged 189 catches for 2,806 yards and 25 touchdowns during the 2014 regular season. I don't think you need to know anything else to determine who gets the edge here.
Big Edge: Packers WR's

Dez Bryant & Terrance Williams vs Sam Shields & Tramon Williams
Bryant is going to win some battles here and for those who think the grass will slow him down, do you not remember Julio Jones?
Edge: Dallas WR's

And now for the trenches, where every game is won or lost.

Packers OL vs Cowboys DL
Packers pass blocking grade is 47.6 (1st) while the Cowboys pass rush grade is 25.9 (8th).
Packers run blocking grade is -11.8 (17th) and Cowboys run defense grade is -20.0 (22nd).
Slight Edge: Packers OL primarily because of Rodgers

Cowboys OL vs Packers DL
Packers pass rush grade is 18.5 (13th) while the Cowboys pass block grade is 22.4 (2nd).
Packers run defense grade is -31.8 (28th) and Cowboys run block grade is 60.7 (2nd).
Big Edge: Cowboys OL

Special Teams Grades
Packers -12.4 (24th)
Cowboys 28.0 (9th)
Big Edge: Cowboys

Overall Grades
Packers Offense 98.8 (2nd) and Cowboys Defense 3.3 (17th)
Cowboys Offense 143.2 (1st) and Packers Defense -4.5 (19th)
Edge: Tie

Zero's Power Ranking
Packers held onto 1st place with a +28.0 differential while the Cowboys took 2nd place with a +22.0 differential.
Slight Edge: Packers

This match up is much much worse then Dallas oline vs our dline. Sorry but it's far from a slight advantage. Its a huge advantage and will be the reason why the packers walk all over that over rated team. Just watch
