I think Hoyer, Vick, A. Smith, Taneyhill, Geno and a HUGE pass rush have more to do with it than our vaunted cover corners.

And yet you're leaving out the first ballot Hall of Famer...

Funny how you can make stats work in your favor

Top 5 against the pass ALL YEAR not just the last 5 weeks...

- Stripes77

Manning is still a very good QB but clearly he's not the same player he was even two years ago.

Hate to sound cliche but a lot more of his throws are sailing on him lately.

He's the acorn in the mud. Wait until this weekend.. Unless Greenbay's game plan is to try and run the ball down our throat Rodgers will have our corners for dinner.

Whatev..

You'll get the biggest test of the season this weekend that is for sure... Nelson, Cobb, and Adams on the outside.. and Lacy up the middle running and catches a lot of balls out of hte backfield.

Its going to be a heck of a game.. teams with really strong front 7's is where GB struggles sometimes like with Detroit, SF, and SEA. As long as Orton doesn't "lose" the game for you with bad play.. I think it'll be a tight game.

- JVince11


It will be a lot closer than most people think. I give the Bills a 20% chance of winning a tight one. But really Aaron Rodgers is just that damn good that he could pick apart a team with the best 2 CB's in the game

CLE has a decent OL, NYJ is awful, KC has 4 guys hurt on their OL, MIA is solid, and again NYJ is awful.. all of those QBs outside of Tannehill are mediocre at best too.

That Manning still threw for over 300 yards and 2 TD against the Seahawks couldn't muster 200 yards and a single TD AT HOME against the Bills...

Yep. Aside from Manning our corner's haven't exactly gone up against game breakers. And our pass rush is killer.

I would even say Tannehill is mediocre

there are really only about 4 great qbs
4 above average qb's

and a bunch of blah


put these guys in a time machine and go back 25 years, I bet 1/3 of the current nfl starting qb's are not even back ups

To me... it usually comes down to tackling.. if Nelson and Cobb can get out of tackles and get YAC.. teams are screwed... if Lacy can break tackles and get free for 7, 9, or 12 yard gains frequently then teams are screwed.

Tannenhill is the only other "young stud" who i see having longevity in this league besides Luck... We have already seen RG3 be done basically.. Kaepernich is really down right now.. and I think Russell Wilson will join the fate here soon too. I have always said that Wilson is just medicore and living off of having a strong run game.

Again, you don't need to be elite at every position to be a contender

Name me Baltimore's DB's two years ago when they won the SB....I'll wait while you google

Wilson won in the playoffs. Flutie was another mediocre player put on a pedestal here.

Rodgers, P. Manning, and Brees are the greats.. Brady doesn't pass as much any more.

Then you have the likes of Roethlisberger, Rivers, Ryan, and Luck.

Then there is that muck... just the Cutler, Stafford, Newton, Wilson, Flacco, Dalton, Romo, and E. Manning where you just NEVER know what you are goign to get on Sundays.

it's a 3-7 point game either way or a 30 + point win for the packers


I can see the team quitting on the coach

Meaning our CB's haven't had to face any game breakers aside from Manning. The fact that he didn't throw any TD's against Buffalo is more of an anomaly than decent CB play.
