By winning, the Packers (8-3) stayed one game behind the Chicago Bears (9-2) in the torrid NFC Central Division race. First place will be on the line Sunday at Lambeau Field in the most momentous Packers-Bears game in almost 40 years."We're in a lot better shape going into the Bears game than we would have if we had lost," Sherman said. "The way we won it, the way we hung in there and battled back, there's a lot of guys who believe in that locker room."
Here we go - it's Showdown Time!
This is the one that separates the men from the boys. I can hardly wait.
If we (LOL!) play the way we did in the first half, we're doomed. If we play the way we did in the second half, it's home field advantage on our way to the Super Bowl.
BTW, by 7:30 last night, the streets of Green Bay were silent. At half-time, there was a mad rush of cars (to & from the liquor stores), then we rolled the streets back up again. The water treatment plant knows when there's a commercial break by water useage.
We expect the first batch of folks coming in for the Packer game on Thursday, but the mad rush will come Friday. Most motels require a two day stay on Packer game weekends, and the people (who book the INSTANT the schedule is released) are more than willing to spend the weekend in Green Bay.
We won last night, wasn't it grand?
Thanks for the ping!
