Washington isn't bad but no way we should lose to these guys at home. It took 5 turnoevers and some horrible calls (force out, Corey Williams on the FG try) to lose last week. That won't happen again.

A lot of people are really high on the 'Skins. Good QB play, outstanding ground game and a very tough defense. They're a top three team in the NFC.
This is a measuring stick game for the Packers.

I think Washington's D is going to give favre trouble, it will be interesting to see how the line plays with the two backups. I really hope they play a lot of under the middle and slants cause if Favre starts to try and force he will get into trouble with those good Skin's coverage guys.
For the Pack on D, it is really simple to me; stop the run and make Campbell beat us, our corners should be able to own the line of scrimmage with those tiny Skin's WR, just make sure a saftey is playing Moss deep.
I think we should take care of business as long as we can keep our head on straight and not make boneheaded penalties/turnovers we should be good.
Pack 24 Skins 13
I am looking for the TE's to have a big day.

Jason Campbell has proven to be shaky so there should be some opportunities for the Packers D in the game.
Packers should play a safety or Barnett on Cooley.
I think it's going to be a low scoring, hard fought game with a Packers win at the end.
17-14

We have to be able to stretch the field at least a little, or Taylor and Landry will maul us eventually short. And it would of course be nice to run the ball, especially if it's in rain. (Will it be?)
On defense, the JS did a good job of realizing Cooley is a big weapon. The receivers have speed deep, they'll try playaction if we gamble too much one and one versus Moss.
On defense again, we have to mix it up a little and come after Campbell a bit.
The Redskins match up well with us, but if we take care of the ball we should be okay.

Did anyone see Favre's ride on ESPN? A black ford f150 with chrome rims on a lift kit. Would you ever expect him to drive that? LOL.

Actually yeah. He was driving an F150 back during the superbowl days too. Although the rims and lift kit are kind of surprising.
Early on, I like this Hall kid at FB. Seems tough and his hands look pretty decent. I haven't paid much attention to him before but if he can develop that knack the Henderson had to come up with the big 3rd down, that would be awesome.

Difference between the Packers and Badgers is that the Pack have actually shown they can stop teams.

Our D has been mediocore since the Giants game IMO.

Still more than the Badgers have shown.
