Streaks to watch (credit to Packers.com)

Green Bay will be looking to register its first 11-0 start in franchise history

Aaron Rodgers is the first QB in NFL history to post 3,100 passing yards/30 passing TDs in the first 10 games of the season...Has registered a 110-plus passer rating in every game this season, a 10-game streak that is the longest single-season streak in NFL history...With the 10 games with a 110-plus rating, is tied for the No. 2 mark in NFL history for the most in a single season, trailing only 49ers QB Steve Young (11 in 1994)

Today's Captains

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone and Go Pack Go!!

I don't exactly remember much of it, but last night I had a dream where Raji took a handoff and must have ran 30+ yards, taking almost the entire Lions secondary to bring him down.

That is a beautiful mental image.

First game since the Saints game week 1 that I feel that playoff intensity as a fan.

I still have that feeling we win somewhat comfortably.

Grant was averaging 4.9 YPC before he had to sit a game out with an injury. Since then he's only been running for 2.7 YPC. If he's not getting the job done again today you can't be afraid to take a look at Saine.

Bit surprised to see DJ Williams inactive. Also, unusual to see all three of Train of Death, Lattimore, and Zombo out. Yay for starks though. Neal, let's see ya bring it fellah.

Yeah, I was surprised to see this too. I wonder if it means there will be more starters playing special teams than normal. And unless I'm missing something that would make Brad Jones the only active backup at OLB.

Press man coverage 2 deep safeties all game long! (Well it worked in madden at least!)

I get the feeling MM is going to treat this like a playoff game and try to prove a point. Either way, I'll be happy if we get a win.

You've NEVER been able to make that argument.
