Where it is real F ing COLD
Man I hate to do it but I am taking the Packer +7.5. 7.5 is too many points IMO and here is why. I am simply not impressed with Seattle's offense. I know Green Bay had a difficult time stopping Murray but Seattle does not have the skilled players the Cowboys had to threaten Green Bay on the outside or the TE to seam the middle. The Packers corners are good enough to take out Baldwin and whoever else they have. The biggest key is Packers have a tough time stopping QBs at the read / option. Packers need to do a decent job containing Wilson and I would think they would have 52 spying on him all day. ' Now oh sure the Seahawks are on a nice run here but let's see who they have played of late, since getting beat by Dallas and a game they thoroughly got whipped even though score closer than the actual ass whooping they got, they have played nothing but garbage and shit QBs. Eli was the toughest and that game was close into the fourth quarter. They haven't seen and offense this good since the Dallas game. So you say look at week 1 when Seattle manhandled Green Bay, oh sure they did but things have changed. The Packers offensive line was grossly banged up and they even started the rookie center, now the line is healthy and the same center has a season of experience. Look back to last week, Carolina should have had an easy cover last week, Packers are much better than they are. I am fully aware of the Packers road struggles against superior teams, I'm the first to point that out. Key here is spreading the ball out to a multitude of receivers and Jordy is going to have to do something. I will get pummeled for this, Jordy is a nice receiver but he has a difficult time against above average corners but I think he finds a way to make a play or two. I will be in Texas so looking for a second half play, look to see how much pressure Seattle is getting up front. What kind of passing game does Seattle have? Are they getting completions down field? Anyway but I may have to spit up a bit. Packers 23 - Seahawks 20

I agree with you. You hit it right on the mark about the seam. I have watched Seattle games of late and they are very vulnerable in the seam and backs coming out of the backfield. I think Starks could be a key also. Did you see Carolina abusing I think it was Simon? Adams has emerged and could be key as well. I was thinking 24-20 Packers. I agree also about the Hawks offense they have been hitting on big plays of late. Luke against Arizona and two lobs last week which are not high percentage throws that Wilson made. Should be a great tight game which can go either way. A touchdown spread is insanity. I continue to read every Legion of Boom but they are not even close to last years defense. I hope we nail this one. Good luck!

I'll have a sick pit in my stomach rooting for the dark side but I think the points are a nice gift. hope the hags win by 7 or less but we haven't had an upset in NFC games yet

I was hoping Detroit got a shot at Seattle. I bet both Detroit and Packers to win it.

You win no matter what!

You win no matter what!

if pack
win the super bowl I get a little cash but not enough for the crap I'll hear about it

Money line the hell out of the Packers. If they win you take some crap with a pile of money. Packers lose, you get to give the crap. You can't lose!

so, if it were Vikings vs Seahawks we'd be looking at a line of Vikings - 13?:0008

I'm on the other side of the fence on this one. I think Seattle is just too fast and too aggressive on defense and they have this game won before the 1st half is over.

I don't think Green Bay can score 10 points.

I can't believe I find myself rooting for the Packers today. Do I need to go to the emergency room and get checked out? What is happening? Go Pack Go!

I promise to cheer for Minnesota when they are in the NFC Championship game. It will happen in the next 5 years.

No ER needed. The calming effect of being a Packer fan would solve your hate issues, and would reduce your posts on madjacks by about 90%. :lol:
