They remind me of our teams of the 90's. They never seem to get rattled, they look calm and in control, no panic.

Down 14-0 on the road, no prob, turn on the jets and outscore the Falcons 25-zip to end the game.

Barring injury, looks like the road to the Super Bowl for the NFC goes through Green Bay.

You can all thank me now because seemingly every time I make a decisive statement about the NFL I get it rammed right up my rump.
 
They can thank the Cowboys for knocking Favre out.

I think the Packers will repeat... All the pieces are there.

Yep, they look good and have a ton of confidence. I've picked them vs the Ravens the last two years and stuck with my pick again this year, if the Cowboys can't be there, that would make for a pretty entertaining game, imo
 
Tough to see anyone knocking them off on the road to the Superbowl. Pretty much seems they're going to win it again this year.

Of course it's still early and a ton of things can happen and go wrong but at this point I'm not sure who I see beating them.

Same could have been said of NE last year at this point.

Packers look good, however. there is still a lot of football to be played.

That's what everyone said about the Falcons, Saints, and Patriots last season. Whoever gets hots at the right time will be in the SB....just like GB did last year.
 
They are definitely the favourites and look like the best team in the NFL to me.

The one thing I'll say is that I think a good offense can score against their defense which is far from elite.
 
If Rodgers can stay upright they are really tough. They're mentally tough. The Falcons looked lost in the 2nd half last nite. And got rolled right over...
 
A lot of teams who look unbeatable in September and October fall away by January. I'm not quite ready to just give them another Vince Lombardi Trophy just yet.

Not to dis-credit Rodgers because he is the NFL's best QB right now....but their backups Flynn and Harrell have been very successful also with these receivers and the scheme they run.

They run a wide open WCO that is almost impossible to cover and their wr's are the best RAC receivers in the NFL.

I actually know next to nothing about their backups...to me the most impressive aspect of the Falcons game was the way they rolled the Falcons in the 2nd half. I am not a Packers fan but they've been impressive.

Yes, they look good but the season is far from over.
