Re: Cowboys-Packers 29/11/07 : Time to talk smack

Also, I don't think either team can shut down the other's offense, but I think the running game (or threat of at least) of Dallas + Dallas' ability to get pressure on the quarterback will be too much for the pack.

I think this is a pretty accurate assessment, especially with Tauscher nicked up. Overall, the OL has done a very good job protecting Favre, but they have struggled a bit against teams with a good pass rush (KC and Philly come to mind).
The comment above about the GB safeties was also a good one.
The more I think about it, the more I feel like it's just going to be a race to 30+ points.
Then again, watch it be a relative defensive struggle like the NE/Indy game.
I'll be disappointed if the Packers lose because I'm not used to seeing it this year (wow - in August I didn't think I'd be saying that) and, of course, it would hurt their chances for the #1 seed, but as long as they play a solid game, I'll be ok with the loss. Just lock up that #2 seed in the next couple weeks and get healthy for the playoffs.
