It's hard to be hopeful, but I am. Just.

I will be at the game. This is the second of the three games that ive been to where Rodgers didn't play.

It's hard for me to be positive about this game......or any upcoming games, until the Packers prove they can win one.
Of course I want them to win, but me wanting doesn't get it done.

The defense will have to GREATLY improve, and the red zone O will have to improve.

Eli Manning has to be licking his chops at the prospect of picking our D-backs apart.

Of course if we can pull off a win, it might just give the guys a shot in the arm that they need right now.

i was planning on going but my daughters 7th birthday party is ealier in the day ,so im not going, kind of glad, without rodgers im hoping for a ball control low scoring game !!

Yeah its been a roller coaster ride in terms of my excitement level. First it got flexed, then rodgers got hurt, then seeing what Tolzien was capable of got me a little excited.

So you're part of the problem! You just made it on my shit list...

People to Blame

1. Dom Capers
2. Whoever wrote the article jinxing Rodgers
3. Cheeseheads123
4. McCarthy (for keeping Capers)

If it makes you feel any better we won the super bowl that year [grin1]

Their o line can still be exposed. It has not been playing well this year. The other side though is their defense has been consistently improving. This will be a tough one because I don't see our injured line winning against the Giants front. Hope I am wrong.

Lord forbid we'd run some screens and traps.

I'm a little bit optimistic about this game.

First of all, Tolzien ain't Aaron Rodgers - no one is, but he at least gives us a chance.

Secondly, part of the problem last week was that the Eagles actually played pretty good. Foles is up and coming, and more athletic than Eli - maybe better all the way around at this point. And the Giants don't have anything like McCoy - who did a lot by himself where lesser runners probably woulda gotten stopped for losses or short gains. Besides, the Packers D is gonna be under some pressure to hold up their end of things.

It's a tough one to call score-wise, but I'll say first one to 27 wins for the 3rd week in a row. Packers 27 Giants 19 (bend don't break D - tough in the red zone for once - 4 Giant FGs)

Our safeties were repeatedly out of position and giving up big plays.

Also our run defense was never on the field.

Ain't worried about the QB. I'm worried about the D.

It's so odd, I'm more worried about our D than starting what would be our 3rd string QB who wasn't even in camp.

No Rodgers?

Edit,

CB Casey Hayward (hamstring) has been ruled out.

LB Nick Perry (ankle, foot) is listed as doubtful.

OT Don Barclay (knee)
LB Andy Mulumba (ankle) are listed as questionable.

C Evan Dietrich-Smith (knee),
DE Mike Neal (abdomen),
DT Johnny Jolly (groin),
DT Ryan Pickett (knee),
LB Clay Matthews (thumb)
CB Sam Shields (hamstring) are listed as probable.

Matthews fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 15. Jolly, Neal and Pickett were limited during practice while the other players did not participate in practice.

I have to work during the game. someone watch it for me.

Oh I will be watching this game. And a xanax will be taken prior.

I'm not worried about Tolzien this game. I think he can play exceptional and as I have said before, he is a much better option than Uncle Rico. A week of practice under his belt should help him out a lot.
The defense worries me. This defense has been so piss poor and no one can put their finger on why. Personnel? DC? Both? Who knows. Time for this unit to step up and help the offense out a bit.

Need a big game from Lacy as well.

Packers win if defense can get 1-2 turnovers.

Pack- 24
Giants- 17

We got this.

D will pull their shit together, for this week at least.
