    Will be rooting for pack but hard to see them pulling it off with Rodgers not 100%

    If I were placing a bet I would bet Seattle and under. Rodgers bad calf will be an issue.

    However, check with me after tomorrow night's National Championship game. I have Oregon and over.

    Rodgers is that wounded wildebeest hobbling around and the Seahawks are the pride of lions who haven't eaten in three days circling around waiting to pounce....

    We saw how hobbled he was today and while it was ok against the Dallas defense who doesn't pressure much and lays back...Seattle will exploit that. They have the secondary to play man up and be physical with the receivers.

    For GB to have a shot it is imperative that they feed Lacy and try to use Seattle's aggressiveness against them on playaction.

    I think this game will be fantastic. Actually both games should be exciting.

    I am leaning Seahawks in this one

    I don't have an opinion on this game till the Seattle injury situation comes more into focus

    This will be an easy Seattle victory. Their defensive line will crush the Packers. They have the same basic line that Detroit and Buffalo have, both teams that the Pack lost to.

    Today Lacy had that huge first drive... hitting that same hole between right guard and right tackle at will.

    Then they did not run that play for the rest of the game. I don't see them feeding to Lacy for a full game.

    Lacy had an asthma attack. If he stays healthy and can breathe, he will be huge. If he can't...

    As a Packers fan, I don't see them matching up that well against the Seahawks, but, we do have the refs. ...and we are due for a makeup call for the whole Golden Tate call. Dez Bryant was just the opening act. LOL.

    Yeah I was perplexed as to why they went away from him and gutting the Cowboys....but asthma attack would do that!

    My favorite is Rum Runners on Tropicana, about two miles east of the Strip. It is a Packers Bar and is always a great time. Phenomenal burgers, a halftime brat buffet (for, like $2 or $3) and 24 oz PBRs for about $3 each.

    It is in a strip mall across the street from the former Liberace museum.

    I'd take the Packers and the +260 moneyline rather than the points.

    For the Packers I kind of look at it like: their quarterback has a gimp leg and last weekend they only barely beat a team that couldn't beat a team where the quarterback has a gimp leg...
