Let the battle for the NFC North between the Packers and Bears begin

By

This article could start out about how the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears take part in the NFL's oldest rivalry, blah blah blah, but let's not get too cliche. For the most part, today's players could care less about the league's historic rivalries. As long as a pay-check is being deposited into their bank accounts, playing resumes as usual. With that said, the … [Read more...] about Let the battle for the NFC North between the Packers and Bears begin

Brandon Marshall brings Charlie Brown X-mas tree, Packer jabs to press conference

By

Almost all Chicago Bears press conferences completely suck. That's because their PR (police resistance) forces their players and coaches to say little to nothing. This one however, is the exception. Star wide receiver Brandon Marshall brought the Charlie Brown Christmas tree, complete with theme music to this press conference. He also fired a lot of shots at the Green Bay … [Read more...] about Brandon Marshall brings Charlie Brown X-mas tree, Packer jabs to press conference

Green Bay Packers go with a balanced look in win over the Lions

By

Balance was the word of the day for the Green Bay Packers on a snowy night at Lambeau Field. A breakdown of 32 rushing plays compared to 24 passing plays helped the Packers (9-4) overcome the Detroit Lions by the score of 27-20. Even the famous and tremendously funny Will Ferrell was digging the Packers on this night with his winter knit Packers cap and a performance of … [Read more...] about Green Bay Packers go with a balanced look in win over the Lions

Previewing the Green Bay Packers vs. the Adrian Petersons

By

No disrespect to the Minnesota Vikings who are one of the better stories in the NFL and NFC North particularly. Still they are without their best receiver in Percy Harvin and are riding a very young and inexperienced quarterback in Christian Ponder. The one thing the Vikings (6-5) do have is Adrian Peterson who has miraculously come back from a nasty knee injury to put up … [Read more...] about Previewing the Green Bay Packers vs. the Adrian Petersons

Eli Manning and the Giants make the Packers look like they have “dead-arm”

By

After not throwing a touchdown in three straight games, the New York Giants Eli Manning threw three of them in a 38-10 rout of the Green Bay Packers. The nasty injury-bug finally caught up to the Packers (7-4) who looked lost on the offensive line and couldn't stop any facet of the Giants' (7-4) offensive attack. … [Read more...] about Eli Manning and the Giants make the Packers look like they have “dead-arm”

Back and Forth: Packers win a game with five lead-changes

By

An offensive explosion which seems imminent whenever the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions meet didn't happen. What did happen was a back-and-forth game dictated by turnovers. The Packers (7-3) Aaron Rodgers wasn't perfect, but his throws were on the money when they counted as he led his team to a fourth-quarter, 24-20 comeback win. … [Read more...] about Back and Forth: Packers win a game with five lead-changes

NFC North Marathon begins with the Detroit Lions for the Green Bay Packers

By

Five of the Green Bay Packers' seven remaining games will come against NFC North opponents. That should make for a very interesting division battle as Green Bay (6-3) sits just one game back of the Chicago Bears (7-2). The marathon begins with the Detroit Lions who are coming off a tough 34-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings and will need every game they can get in order to … [Read more...] about NFC North Marathon begins with the Detroit Lions for the Green Bay Packers

The injury-riddled Packers beat the Cardinals for their fourth straight win

By

Injuries are as common to football as cheese is to Wisconsin, but the plague that has hit Green Bay is way beyond what any normal team goes through. After beating the Arizona Cardinals by the score of 31-17, the Packers (6-3) are legitimately without 11 starting players. New injuries to WR Jordy Nelson, OL Bryan Bulaga and LB/DE Clay Matthews only adds salt to an open wound … [Read more...] about The injury-riddled Packers beat the Cardinals for their fourth straight win
