All the Planets are aligning, Green Bay at Home on Xmas Day against the new Kids after Farve plays a stinker.
Copied:
Rex Grossman has made six starts in his NFL career and has thrown for 200-plus yards and two touchdowns in only one of them. One of those six was a road win last season in Green Bay, against a Packers pass defense that was far worse than the one Rex will see this Sunday. He completed 10 passes and finished with 118 yards, one touchdown, and one interception
Cramps aren’t an unusual injury in the NFL, but seeing a number of players come down with cramps in a single game is, especially when it happens on both sides of the field. Odder still, the game wasn’t played in the heat of Texas or California, but the cold Chicago day – 12 degrees at kickoff, Michael David Smith tells me – makes it even more surprising. Cramps usually come in heat or from dehydration, so unless the Gatorade froze up, I’m stumped. One source I asked told me it may be the coaches: “I don’t know either of these [coaches], Lovie Smith or Jim Mora, but they’re both young. Maybe their teams aren’t quite as conditioned as they should be and we’ll see this next week as well.”

fine GB ml. Farve is a god and Chicago can't score.
Seriously Green Bay is probably the way to go. After Grossman's inspiring win on national tv and Farve and Green Bay's embarassing effort against the Ravens on monday night its only logical.
Chicago could be in for a letdown while Green Bay is looking to restore some pride.
Only concern is Farve against this defense automatically means 2-3 interceptions, hope they come on 3rd and longs and act like a punt.

I'm on the GB wagon today!! Hope Favre is on because they have no running game now...Noah Herron
ucking: ........their defense has been pretty darn good all season...we won't count last week. Bears offense is terrible. Believe Al Harris shut down the moose last match up as well...he is having probowl year. For once in my life i'll say....
GO PACKERS!!!!!!!!!

Come on man, GB has little to no chance to win. The Bears D will probably score twice today and Grossman is all the extra confidence the Bears O needed to put up an additional 7 to 10 points a game. Bears will roll here.
I cannot stand it any longer. This is my first post after accessing and enjoying this site for many years. I am a longtime sports gambler and poker player and look forward to many future posts.
Having said that, I see the Bears as a very strong play. As playoff time looms, the great defenses tend to dominate. Remember the no-offense, great defense Ravens of 2000. I see an easy cover for the Bears and the definite possibility of a rout. I have loaded up on this one.
