That really hasn't been the case the last 6 weeks

They are a much better team. Lets face it, they could go on a run just like any of the other NFC teams. If the playoffs were starting today, they would be on the road in Zona. Is that unreasonable that they would beat Zona? I wouldnt bet that they would beat zona, minny AND New Orleans but stranger things have happened.

Believe it or not, I'd rather play Philly than AZ. Their big weakness now with Al Harris out is teams that play 3 wide outs and make the Packers play in the nickel. Their offense can play with anyone now, but the D is still vulnerable if Kurt Warner goes off like Rothleisberger did yesterday.

You can't deny what Capers has done with the D, especially identifying players strengths and putting them in positions to maximize them, but why he insisted on a 3 man rush that last drive I don't understand. If that had been Pitt on D, they would have brought the farm on that last play (s) and made him throw quickly.

I was referring more to the two Minnesota games which is where I lost my bet. They pull a split in those two games and don't lose in the last second yesterday and GB/Minn would be all tied with two games to go and all the momentum in favor of Green Bay. As it is Minnesota has already clinched.

I think GB matches up great with Arizona and the Saints. They just need someone to knock off Minnesota for them which doesn't look too unlikely at this point.

No arguement regarding the Minnesota games, or the ramifications of that loss at GB and the f'in Tampa Bay disaster.
