Yeah Green Bay is a better running team now than they were back then. But if we can shut down Minnesota, I think we can shut down GB. Of course Favre/Driver/Jennings are much better through the air than Minnesota. GB would be a challenge, but I think we can run on them with more success than we did earlier this year. We'd probably go 3 yards and a cloud for most of the game, and then wear them down in the end. |
Good point, if we shut down Minni then we should be able to handle the Pack. I guess it's worth pointing out that our defenes has tightened up a little since then too.
For some reason, I thought Oakland was a wild card team one year they went to the Super Bowl - I'm losing it.
