Pack's plan: Pressure Eli

Kick back Saturday night, Eli Manning. Get as cozy as you want with the boxed set of "Seinfeld" reruns, because the Packers are out to make you anything but comfortable come kickoff Sunday.

I'm glad you checked your crystal ball....now I don't have to watch the game.

U C, Mr Favre is much OLDER than Eli. In reality He is the vulnerable QB. If the Giants can control Grant with 7 in the box and rush the QB, the supposedly weak secondary will do OK. Meanwhile the Giants running attack has been consistent and clutch. Te game is not a pack slam dunk.

Jack. Good point. That is like the Giants saying they need to get to Farve. No duh. The difference between the Giants and the Seahawks. The Giants can run the ball and in a game like this that is the key. NO ONE on the Packers wants to see Brandon Jacobs running with a full head of steam in that weather. Its hard enough tackling him when its nice outside. It's going to be a good game. The Giants may win or they may lose but either way as I have said many times. The season has been a success. Really doesn't matter the Packers are going to be champs anyway as sick as that makes me.

Judging by that video, I'd say Shaun Powell and Arthur Staple are guilty of using really old pictures of themselves on their columns.

I DONT GIVE THE GIANTS MUCH CHANCE TO WIN UNDER THE CONDITIONS FORCAST SUNDAY IN GREEN BAY??WIND CHILLS @ 20 BELOW ZERO???THAT IS SO COLD, IF NANOOK OF THE NORTH WAS IN TOWN FOR THE GAME, HE WOULD STAY AT THE HOTEL???I'M A LIFELONG GIANTS FAN, BUT I'D LAY THE 7 POINTS IN THIS ONE & TAKE THE PACKERS!!! HATE TO BET AGAINST MY TEAM, BUT IF TRUTH BE TOLD, THATS HOW I SEE IT!!!BTW, FAVRE IS ARGUEABLY THE BEST EVER @ HIS POSITION, ESPECIALLY IN FRIGID WEATHER, ON THAT FROZEN TUNDRA. HE IS THE DIFFERENCE IN THIS GAME!!! MANNY D BAY SHORE NY

i dont buy that the packers are inpervious to cold weather...they may have won their fair share of games in those conditions but ANYTHING can happen tomorrow. both teams will be affected.

by the way, it gets a little windy in the meadowlands too. cold weather means nothing!

Once again the G-men are on the road and are the underdogs---a winning combination -- don't things happen in 3's!!!! Just got to play like the last 2 games---Loose and easy. See you in AZ.

LEAVE TO IT TO THESE MORONS AT NEWSDAY TO PUT A PICTURE OF THE PACKERS CELEBRATING IN A NEW YORK NEWSPAPER.

[In Eli I Trust]

We believe in you, Eli. Go get em tomorrow and earn yourself a trip into the Super Bowl. This team has the karma to get there if you remain composed and play your style of dinking and dunking down the field and advancing the chains on third down. This is your year to silence your credits. Lets silence them.

[Prediction]

13-3 Green Bay

Here are some key facts: The frozen tundra of GB is a lie. They have radiant heat piped under the field. So the running game should be fine as long as it stays dry. Even in the snow Grant got over 200 yds last week. Favre 's worst game was on a bitter cold day in Chicago. It was 16* and winds around 23 mph, so the wind chill was -18*. He went 17/32 for 153yds 2 INTs and a passer rating of 40.2. That same day in Buffalo it started out warm but, quickly deteriorated with wind gust between 36-50 mph and rain then snow. Manning was just as bad going 7/15 for 111yds 2 INTs and a rating of just 32.2 and he fumbled 5 times and lost 2 of them. But the Giants rushed for 291 yds. That is the key just RUN the ball and no turnovers and they have a great chance. Also the defense came up with some great plays. We need some tomorrow.
