Isn't anyone? I hope the players are drinking all this Koolaid that has been passed around after our victory. I almost feel that everyone (maybe not the players) felt getting a monkey of our back and proved to the world that we are a good team by beating our arch nemesis PHILI.

BUT, I see no concern thread about GB. Sure they lost to Tampa. But we are playing in Lambo and they have good enough offense to score and their D ranking is actually better than us (subjective as that maybe).

This is a much bigger TRAP game than Seattle. GB actually have a good QB.

I hope our players are focused and not have gotten as high as we have (at least I have) after beating Phili in Phili.

there is alot to be worried about.

They score alot of points and they get alot of turnovers.

The negatives with them it appears are the line and the punter stinks.

Overconfidence doesn't seem to be an issue in this year's version of the locker room. They've seemed focused pretty much since the KC game and I doubt they'll go into Lambeau too big-headed. Hopefully the team leaders will keep things under control and continue this nice run they're on. Dallas is the better team and should be able to handle the Pack as long as they stay disciplined...

Always something to worry about, especially when you're dealing with a club that is not meeting their perceived expectations like GB are.

Of course, they're not only in a skid but battling some injuries too...Kampman being questionable is a big loss as he has been a handful in the past...Even their DBs are hurting.

GB 'need' the win, badly...So, there will be a lot of pressure...Dallas just has to play their game and give them a steady dose of the running attack (Like last season) and keeping them honest in the secondary...Plus, apply a ton of pressure to Rodgers who has spent a lot of time on the turf already

I'm concerned because I think GB is very capable team who can get hot. I'm really not concerned about this Cowboy team eating the cheese and drinking the kool-aid, I think they learned that lesson last year when there was so much talk about going to the SB in training camp, this years team is not talking about SB's

you should ALWAYS worry about playing on the road...and playing on the road against a team that can score. this is NOTHING like seattle. First of Seattle came to Dallas..secondly, Seattle cannot score. This game will be harder than the Falcons game. Believe that!

GB actually have better WRs than Phili. Their WRs are just as fast and much more polished.

Biggest weakness we need to exploit is their OL. If we can get to Rogers then we'll do well. Their D is pretty good. We need to continue to play mistake free football and not beat ourselves.

Reasons why I'm not worried.

1. Their o-line is in shambles and we're really in a groove right now getting pressure.

2. Kampman looks to be out

3. We look to be a different team with Miles in the starting line up opening up the offense.

4. We are confident right now.

5. We are playing as a team and executing right now. We "could" lose but it's going to take one helluva of an effort by GB.

6. The growth of TR..

I do worry about Green Bay. There is a reason why teams actually do prepare for their next opponent. Because nothing is a given.

I think the Cowboys will not get over confident and will keep their edge.

But it is not easy to win back to back road games against decent teams and the Packers are still a decent team.

Green Bay worries me because they are not as bad as people think.

They still have a decent passing game and Rogers can buy time in the pocket.

Driver and Jennings are a threat as well.

Going to Lambeau concerns me too.

Their problem is protecting the QB.

Its never going to be easy in this league to win a game on the road and I just hope they dont think they can show up and win.

I'm not worried about GB or the Skins...can they beat us on a given day? yes, but it's highly unlikely for one simple reason.

Teams with lousy offensive lines (that covers GB and Skins) are not going to fare well against the Cowboys, and GB's defense is as porous as any we've seen.

The only way to lose this team is for Tony Romo or someone else to hand them 2-3 freebies.

They also gave Minny all they could handle twice. With there passing game they are always in the game.

Romo has been playing well but he potentially hand 2-3 over. GB has good CBs too as well as WRs.

GB played pretty well against Minn for 3 quarter then fell apart. So they can play.

We better be ready esp. when the game is in Lambo

TOs and breaks being even we win
we could definitely lose this game but I think the players are confident that if they play hard, they will win--but I have seen nothing to suggest they are overconfident and not working hard--and unlike past years, they have no distractions

Green Bay has underperformed so far.

I'm very concerned about this game.

I live in wisconsin. I watch the packers every week. They just put in the 3-4 and took away their best pass rusher and put him at an unknown spot (Kampman). Their best cover lb is chiller and hes nothing to be afraid of. Al harris is old and is good for a torching, just as TO and Plax did to him. WHEN they run good, and i stress that "when" they dont do it enough. They are pass happy. Their line is a turn style with injuries, even when healthy it seems one will go down. Arod looks to go deep to much, he holds on to the ball way to long. I mean way. I could go on. But, I wont.

We will make easy work of this team and I will be collecting money from about 7 friends and family members.
