If you read my season predictions when I began this blog before the season, you saw I projected the Packers to finish 14-2 with home-field advantage.  I thought the 2 losses would come @ Denver and @ Minnesota.  Why I haven’t stuck with my predictions from game-to-game I’m not sure why.  Sticking to my guns now (even though I don’t think the Packers will win, based mostly on how bad GB looked @ Denver last week).

Carolina has incredible Linebackers and a very stout Defensive Line.  5 players on their defense you’ll likely hear quite a bit about are Thomas Davis (LB), Josh Norman (CB), Kawann Short (DT), Star Lotulelei (DT), and super star Luke Kuechly (MLB).  Those five players will represent quite a few issues to this Green Bay offense.  It’s about time Rodgers puts a team on his back and wins a tough road game against a quality defense.  Short and sweet since I’ve written twice already.

Packers 26
Panthers 20 (OT)
