Packers off a bye week, off of two straight wins including dominating Colts at home two weeks ago.
Titans coming off big MNF win against same Colts...short week...bruising game against Colts.

Packer defense getting several injured starters back, Harris and Bigby, plus added depth with their reserves who have started the past few games.

Packers do have big divisional game at Minnesota after the Titans, but think they have excellent shot of beating Tennessee

Saw an early line of Tenn -5 you just know with -5 most will be on Tenn (shoot, Tenn as covered every game thus far = very worthy team)

Was hoping to get +7 hmmmmmmm:discuss:

Hey, before I knew the line... I was saying PACKERS ALL-THE-WAYYYYY >:) It's over, count it... well, almost.

Check into the rushing stats/defense of each team. I think we'll find the answer there. TO's will go both ways IMO and passing gives the edge to PACK. We just need to figure out of the Pack can keep CJ28 and White to a minimum of touches.

WHOA WHOA WHOA... easy first. I still gotta go deeper into it. My mind was hoping for +7 also. And this time the situation is for GB but according to my #'s >:\ Titans suppose to smash again. Let me see if this situation is strong enough to overcome that or not okie? DONT DO IT YET!

Green Bay has a more talented team than Tennessee. Home field should make Tenn the favorite, but my line for this game would be Titans -2. Obviously that's not what I predict to see the line at, but imo that is the true line. Green Bay should win, but is no guarantee.

There is a difference between talent and execution though... as we found out on MNF. Colts talent is better... but their execution, however, is non-existent. Titans on the other hand are executin'... everybody lol. But I think this is their first true test of playing talent that can execute... unlike vs the Colts where it was merely a situation.

I don't know that the Colts are really that much more talented than the Titans right now though. When healthy, yes, they are much, much more talented. But they are missing arguably their best defensive player and their starting RB, who makes a huge impact on the offense. Those are two very key pieces of this team that they were missing.

Titans have a bunch of talent..at every spot apart from WR. Their WRs are average to bad..(too many drops) TE help make up for that though.

I hope you guys didnt miss all those espn line comparisons between the titans o-line and the colts defensive line.

Well, the same huge oline, that those quick nifty linemen of the colts couldnt beat is the same line that will further protect Collins in the game vs green bay.

The pack can be picked apart badly if you give the QB time. And if i can see this i gurantee you JEff fisher can see it too! (BTW, the colts score is actually deceptive. titans could have very well scored in the 40s vs the colts)

Packs passing defense is ranked really high, but titans are a run first team. CJ and lendale will get their carries and tds. I say white will get another 2 tds or even 3 against that pack defense.

I expect another high scoring game that has the potential to get out of hand for the packers if they mess up and let the titans score early. (btw, titans had the chance to be up 21-7 in the first half against the colts. But they were stopped and they kicked FGs. made two missed one)

At the half they made the adjustment (like good teams are supposed to) and they figured out that the colts couldnt even touch collins the whole day. It was just matter of driving down the field and scoring on the colts.

Which they did and made the two point try look even easier than defrocking a hooker!

If the Pack cant pressure collins into mistakes..(and they would need to roid up their d-line to pull this off as done by the much better ravens, who actually didnt even sack collins) then it will be long day for them. Half the time chasing a squirly little fast fella then getting hit big down the field..(probably will see alot of crumpler again)

Has this guy ever posted anything positive about the titans? you seem to be be against them always..

and they are 7-0.. If some one were blindly betting them, they would be very happy right now.

I agree that Addai is huge and having him and Sanders out was good news for me. But talent is still talent. Manning is still talent--he's just not executing. That's all I could say. Colts still have MASSIVE talent, which is only potential until it's put to use.

i can't say that Kerry Collins can be put in the same league as Manning and say he's got more talent. I can't say Gage is the same talent as Reggie Wayne, etc. It's just the execution those players go through--it's classic teamwork.

Piccolo> Situationally the Pack are supposed to win this, there's not doubt about that to me. It's perfect timing also with their bye. No team in the league has been able to sack the Titans QB more than once... so we can't single out a team for that.

You said it should have been 21-7 by half... My pre-game analysis said it should have been 14-7 and also 1H OVER 20... I was pretty close but I can't account for that many missed chances. I'm not locking in the Pack like I was intending on doing but I might go one way or the other after the facts are given to me.

If I even think for a second that the Pack RUSH D can hold up in this game, I will surely bet on the Packers.
