Why do people think the Packers have a shot at winning? Plus other palyoff

[bleedingpurple]

I know any given Sunday anything can happen. Just wondering what the rationale is? Have seen it in a few places, is it just a gut feeling? It's irrational, isn't it?

Green Bay has beat nobody this year except for Seattle and that was back when everyone was beating them. Aaron Rodgers road record on the road is absolutely brutal since 2010, actually his entire playoff record is bad since 2010. Not all his fault but back to this game, has Green Bay found some receivers or something? Is James Lofton coming back? I think everyone is over reacting to the Packers picking apart a crappy Washington defense. A few weeks ago the Packers couldn't do much against Arizona. I do expect the Pack to score more than points but they are going to have to into the 30s to win. Arizona just has too much all around, they are a complete team. Zona 34 - 20

I like the OVER 50 as my best bet and Tease Zona to pick and OVER 43 as well and Playing Zona for some -7

KC +5

Carolina/Seattle UNDER 44..... Write up in thread

Taking Kansas City +5, Think their DL can control the Pats O line and they have corners who can press the quick throw, I no a big fan of Pat's D, I see Kansas City as winning but I can't trust them enough for that, I'll take the points.

I'll be the first to admit I've been wrong many times. Maybe I'm just dumb or stubborn. But after what I saw from Rodgers and the packers I think they win this game. For the past 6 weeks Rodgers had the deer in headlights look. Until the 2nd quarter last week against the redskins. He took control and never looked back. When Rodgers is on he's the best in the league next to Brady, it doesn't matter if he has receivers or not. The defense seemed to gel at the right time granted it was against the skins. Carson Palmer has never showed us anything in the playoffs. Not sure about this but has he won a game in the post season? Arizonans D is great but they've peaked. Sometimes a week off can really hurt your rhythm/momentum built during the regular season. I'll take Rodgers experience and know-how to win playoff games over just about anyone in the NFL. Green Bay Moneyline is the only way to go Is this one if you like them.

Don't have time to look this up but how many non-divisional foes have beaten Rodgers itwice n the same season? I really hope people betting on Arizona aren't banking on what they saw 3 weeks ago on prime time. This is a whole different ball game with a different reward.

Carson Palmer is playing for a well rounded football team with a lot of weapons. The only reason green bays offense was good is because it was against Washington, look at the previous games? The crap defense was the answer and had Rodgers lost to a non division opponent twice in a season and the answer is yes,

Seahawks twice last year
Niners twice in 2013
Niners twice 2012

 

[bleedingpurple]

Packers record on road since 2012 against teams who finished with a winning record including last week's win against Washington is 2 -12, only other win was this year at Minny and most of the 12 losses were blowouts.

Cardinals are gonna steam roll the Packers again. I've never bought into the Rodgers hype. I find it comical that people think he's the best QB in the league with all these weapons over the years, choking in the playoffs. Great he beat a Steelers team that had a horrendous secondary. I remember telling people that Pittsburgh was the magic matchup for Green Bay. Meanwhile The New England Brady's are just plucking along with injury after injury.

Rodgers this year is playing with a roster that you could almost compare to Brady's in recent history. Brady won, Rodgers isn't and looks bad.

Cardinals 35
Packers 17

Packers score a late garbage TD

 

[Dizzayton]

I like Cardinals as well. I have felt for the last two months that the real Super Bowl will be the NFC Championship game between the Cards and Panthers. I am sticking to my guns. I like the home teams in NFC both to win this weekend. They have been the best teams in NFL pretty much all year.

Points taken my friend. I guess the two loss in one season was a mute point, however I did not know the answer. At any rate I hope the packers win Saturday night. If rather see Rodgers in the NFC Championship than Palmer and the Cards

I bet $400 on Green Bay to win super bowl at start of season and can't root for them. Every big fat ugly packer fan, woman or man has pointed out the Viking choke and how Green Bay is back on track for a super bowl run. Heard the same bragging after beating a Cassle leaf cowboy team. Fuck the packerd

I'll be honest Bleed. You have a great feeling/capping skill for the NFL. I understand you put the bet in but it sounds like other fans or opinions are getting on your nerves. Nevertheless I don't feel as good about the packers with your strong sentiments on them losing.

I'm actually just teasing trying to bait the packer lurkers in

I like the over the best, packers could back dolor cover but I give them no chance ml

 

[HUDSON]

Agree with you...still crunching some numbers but I don't see this being close. O line issues will be an issue for Pack and I see Zona corners containing Jones and Cobb. Be very surprised to see any success on the ground as well. Zona going to the Super Bowl after beating Seattle at home. GL Bleed!!

Also on KC!! Great value there

 

[Kelso]

On Dec 27 Ariz 38. GB 8
Rodgers got sacked 9 Times
GB 4 Turnovers--- 2 Fumbles returned for TD's

Arizon 27 GB 16

Arizona is too good and Green Bay is too Jeckyl & Hyde

 

[bleedingpurple]

Carolna/Seattle UNDER 44.

AM I being suckered into this bet? Both QBs are good mobile QBs but where are the other weapons? Ted Gin? Greg Olsen is a threat on the other side it's Lynch and Locket, Doug Baldwin? Seems like the offensive talent isn't good enough to put up a bunch of points on these defenses. I'm thinking a lot of sacks in the game so looking to go over the total of sacks if one is posted as prop.

 

[Old School]

4. Packers cornerback Sam Shields (concussion) was limited in practice on Friday, and is questionable to play. Offensive tackle David Bakhtiari (ankle) was not at practice, but is still listed as probable. Wideout Davante Adams (knee) will not play against the Cardinals.

[ticket casher]

Green Bay is going to shut all the haters down tonight.
Gb wins the game.
Gb- Seattle rematch, but at lambeau.
How can some idiots on here say they don't buy in to the Rodgers hype?
He's a top 10 all time qb. Idiots.

He is not a top 10 QB of all time IMO, his road record against good teams the past 5 years is absolutely brutal
