The Loins know they are going nowheresville this year.
But they are a bunch of thugs and cheap shot artists. Dirtiest team in the league, and the dirties player in the league, in Suh.
Combine that with our thinness on the OL, and we have a scenario where these guys could definitely be trying to take shots today.
Get the ball out, Aaron. |

It is possible. I think the refs know what to look for. The Lions won't begin with cheap shots in the first plays. they will only grow bolder if the refs allow them to. |

Coupled with running the ball effectively... I have this itchy feeling we handle that front tonight. |

Great test for Barclay. Suh needs to watch his back. He keeps taking cheap shots, someone's gonna take one on him someday. |

Sounds like Triplette is reffing. Could work to our advantage if the Loins try to take shots. |

Get the ball out, Aaron. Keep Kuhn back. |
My man Donald Driver  (thanks to Pack93z for the pic) 2010 will be seen as the beginning of the new Packers dynasty.    |

Check.. and Rodgers took a couple nasty hits.. but we ran effectively and pass blocking was okay. A couple time Suh and Fairly drove guys deep into the pocket.. but nothing outlandish in terms of consistently. |
