    Anybody think the line will shift, prior to kickoff?

    Anybody give me GB and 2.5, right now?

    I hope you are right Jeff. The biggest concern I have for the Pack is if the inability to run the ball will rear it's ugly head again. Sure GB was able to run the ball against Philly. I'm not so sure they will have the same success with ATL.

    Should be a fun one.

    I'm sure it will shift. After last weeks games, I am not betting on anything!

    Sure seems like an odd one to me. Havent' the Falcons won like 20 home games in a row (or something like that) until recently I believe they finally lost one? I know the Pack appear to be a hot team right now, but dang that's a strange line IMO.

    It's funny how I can pick the winning team every week...like some sort of swami ?

    the team that scores the most points will win on Saturday evening !

    Where's MichealP ? I think we are the only 2 Falcon fans on this site, and he's from Georgia anyway...lol.

    We don't lose at home... ok maybe twice, but we don't lose at home.

    Here I am Bro...sorry for the delay. I have been so off on picking games I am scared to touch this one since it is obvious who I am rooting for.

    We beat them once already, we do not loose at home and we are the #1 seed with a bye and home field advantage all through the playoffs.....yeah all that is a set up for disaster. We will see, but I think the key is obviously holding them to a low number like the last game. I do not want to see a shoot out materialize, as that favors them by a long shot.

    If you’re interested..... I'll give you GB and 2.5.


    How about at $25 gift card to the Cracker Barrel? (Only place I could think of that we would both have)

    Perfect! I only lose (in my own little world) if the Packers lose by either 1 or 2 points. I'd pay $25 to see the Pack in the NFC championship against the Bears.


    Cue the Fed's pounding on our doors in 3............ 2........... 1..............

    Interesting stat. The last four out of five 1 seed vs. 6 seed games, the 6 seeds have won.

    Sorry for just noticing this Jeff, to be honest this game has me nervous as heck. Green Bay is liek Jeykell and Hyde, we held them to 17 last time, but they could put up 60 saturday...you just never know witht them.

    I would not mind a wager, but I cannot do it on one of "my" teams. I already get worked up at the games anyway, and having a wager usually pushes me over the edge. I will admit though, a BH.com spree is much better than cash, 100 times better.
