    I don’t think they can. Do you?

    I am a die hard Packer fan, can they be beaten? You better believe it. They have played well enough to win so far but, they have not exactly been burying teams. I can see 13-3, hope that is good enough for home field throughout the playoffs. If the offense can start playing better maybe 14-2

    Of course they can. The good news is that they are 5-0. I was thinking heading into the bye they would be 4-2. I think they will finish 13-3. They need to get a deep threat going. I kind of expect to see one after the bye week

    Can they be beat in what timeframe? Rest of the regular season?

    The good news is they’re playing well. Given the weakness of the NFC north, they Pack certainly will benefit from 2 more games against Detroit and 2 against the Vikes. They also should beat the Bears again, which is always enjoyable.

    But it could be a little more interesting against Denver and Carolina. I wouldn’t be putting those two games in the W column just yet.

    Lot of football left to be played and that’s just to get to the playoffs where things will get interesting.

    Defense is not strong enough for me to bet they will go unbeaten the rest of this season. Our offensive line is also suspect at times. This is coming from a Packer fan.

    Defense has pretty much won them the last 2 games and has looked really good in every game but the Bears game.

    Of course they can be beat.. Like every other team. And most likely they will get to the superbowl…wait,,if they don’t pee down their leg again. BUT, once they get there,, they will get smoked by TB and BB. You can have all the players in the world but when you get outmatched by a coach there isn’t much your boys will be able to do!

    So far, so good. Gotta say it’s been a good year for me. The Packers and the Hawkeyes are undefeated thus far. Now all I need is a 180″ buck and a 12 pound walleye. )

    The way it looks right now the measuring stick may be New England. No other AFC team seems on the same level as the Pats, so if you’re a Packer fan your best-case scenario might be against NE in the Super Bowl.

    Which leads to a follow-up question: Could they beat the Patriots?

    This team has a certain feel too it. Like the 96 team. The defense is much better than expected and Rodgers is Rodgers even on an off afternoon atleast by his standard. After the gut punch they took in the championship game this season seems to have a certain purpose to it so far. I like what I see. Will be at this Sundays game for a closer inspection!

    Too bad they still have McCarthy! He will be the reason they lose, again.

    Arizona is a little scary and Seattle seems to be finding their stride. It’s not how you start but how you finish that matters in most sports.

    Absolutely….far from a great team! Have benefitted from some home cooking from the refs ( as is usual in Green Bay) but they will win this poor division and get to play at home which should allow the refs to win them a playoff game but they aren’t going anywhere worth mentioning!

    Great team not really but a really good team. Good teams and the home team usually get the calls. There aren’t any great teams this year in the NFL but some really good teams. I like their chances this year unlike any other team in the division.

    Lots of season left. Never know….maybe the puss on the defense with all the blonde hair will hurt his THUMB again and not be able to play [not that he matters really] or maybe Rogers will get nipped. Lots of things can happen. The Vikes could even upset their apple cart.

    Is everything ok?

    Just tell Adrian that the Packers are his children and that they have been very very bad. Then the Pack will be beat within an inch of their lives! (Can’t believe no one thought of that one already!)

    They sure look like a completely different team the last 4 weeks. I will admit I was wrong this year on the Packers but every team slumps and they certainly are in a major funk. They still control there own destiny and I always enjoy watching them as an underdog and they always seem to play there best as an underdog. Go Pack! Go! I certainly wouldn’t write them off yet.

    Can you say that with absolute certainty? Or just wishfull thinking. I would be worried about playing the cornered and wounded animal. But hey mark it down as a W if you want.

    What will make them more injured and cornered then they were at HOME today?

    Make no mistake I don’t care who wins next week but I’m certainly enjoying the last 3 Packer weeks. applause

    Odds point to a packers win next week. Packers lose 3 in a row. Vikings win 5 in a row. Wife is going to the game. I have to work. Hope it’s a close game.
