Watching the Bears/Packers game right now. Packers don't look like the same offensive juggernaut that they have been the past couple years. Obviously the season is young, so that could easily change.
But what the Packers have been doing this game that they didn't do against the Niners is play some defense. Some of that may be attributed to the Bears offensive line, which hasn't given Cutler any time to throw. A common sight tonight has been 2nd down and a mile for the Bears - quite the opposite for the Niners, who were able to muster 377 total yards and 22 first downs against the same defense.
If the Niners can maintain the offensive efficiency they displayed in the opener and the Packers devolve somewhat as an offense (I don't think they have a good enough defense to overcome any sort of dip in offense), I believe they will be the odds-on favorite to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.
Yeah, yeah...I had the Eagles as my Super Bowl pick - not sure why. I'm already ditching that.
49ers - 24/7/365 (or 366). All angles covered, especially the obtuse ones. Fantasy sports, analysis, predictions - all done on a weekly basis.
