I'm really glad the real refs are back because I don't think I would have been able to follow through with my threat to not watch this game.

For good luck:

Very good test to see where the team stands on offense and defense.

The defense they will have their hands full. The offense needs to take advantage of the Saints weak defense and build some confidence to get things clicking again.

LBs in coverage could be key on defense.

Phil Luckett, the man who bungled the overtime coin toss in a Thanksgiving 1998 game between the Steelers and Lions, was the league supervisor in the replay booth for the game between the Packers and the Seahawks, according to Peter King of SI.com...

As NBC officiating consultant Jim Daopoulos explained, both during Pro Football Talk on NBC Sports Network and PFT Live on the web, the league supervisor and the replay official — neither of whom are replacements — are directly involved in the replay decisions. It’s a procedure that doesn’t apply under normal circumstances, with the regular officials on the field and the regular referee going under the hood.

I'm still frustrated that the MNF bull has put us in this position. We have to beat a desperate Saints team to avoid dropping to 1-3, that's not a good spot to be in.

How about a nice curb stomping that leads to a run of wins?

I want to see us come out ready to crush some skulls. Last week was ridiculous. I hope we run all over them and have some big plays off of playaction.

#Packers inactives: Boykin, Richardson, House, Starks, Manning, D.J. Williams, Merling

I hate the D.J. Williams inactive status.

Offense better show up today against a crap defense

This will be a lot better team when Starks and House are in the fold. Starks is really underrated among Packers' fans. The records with and without speaks to his importance. He gets virtually every yard there is to get with our bad run blocking O-Line.

< 1 minute into the game and I am already sick of Joe Buck.

I have a feeling that we're going to see an overuse of the run this week now.

Benson not good enough to "establish" the run with.
