Packers Fans Question

I say bring on Seattle. Last time they played in Lambeau was January 1st 2006. Final game of the year and everyone thought of Brett's career. What happened??? Packers won 23-17.

Is that the game that went to overtime and GB won on a long pass play? IF it is I'm not sure that I'd be referencing that as my reason to have Seattle come to town.
 
You are using way too many big words to expect Packers fans to be able to comprehend and answer your question.
 
I don't think you can compare the Seattle game to the way they may be now. That game as you said was the last game of the season. The Packers were on their way to I believe a 4-12 season and the Seahawks were about to head to the playoffs where they eventually made the Super Bowl. They rested their starters pretty early on and lost what was a meaningless game for them.

The Bucs aren't very good running the ball right now, which would free up the defense to concentrate on the wide outs and keep Galloway in check. However, with these factors in mind, it probably means that they won't make it past the first round.

The Pack have proven that they can beat the Giants when they are healthy (which they aren't now). I would rather see the G-Men at Lambeau.
 
So looks like it'll be the Packers and Seahawks. Shawn Alexander was absolutely shut down in the Redskins game and they still won. Mostly because the Redskins had trouble with turnovers. Those two pick-6s in the 4th quarter killed 'em. Otherwise, they might have had a shot. If Green Bay's defense can stuff Alexander and keep the Pack ahead, that'll keep Favre from gunslinging down the field and causing turnovers. Should be an easy win for GB.

Ugh, do not turn it to ESPN right now. NFL's Greatest Games is showing the 1998 playoff game against the 49ers. If only they had instant replay back then the Packers would have probably gone to their 3rd straight Super Bowl.

For those that don't remember. Here is a recap from askmen.com as it is listed as their #9 worst referee call in history.

Green Bay Packers vs. San Francisco 49ers
1998 NFL Wild Card Game
Referee: Gerald Austin

In San Francisco 49ers lore, there are two last-second, heroic touchdown receptions simply known as The Catch and The Catch II -- the latter of which should never have happened. Down by four points, the 49ers moved into Packer territory with less than one minute remaining. On a second-down play, Jerry Rice made a reception on a short crossing route and fumbled. Replays showed that the ball had slipped from Rice’s grasp before either of his knees had made contact with the ground, but the official ruled that Rice was down prior to losing control of the ball.

Outcome: The 49ers completed the comeback as quarterback Steve Young picked out Terrell Owens between five Packer defenders on a miraculous 25-yard touchdown with three seconds left.
