    Before you go all in on the packers. REMEMBER!

    This is their 4th playoff game in a row. I have not decided on this play yet but take this information in to consideration.

    Yeah but they were not loved as much as these packers are. Believe me I love the packers but damn so does the rest of nation except for atlanta of course. I'm just saying, be careful.

    Gmen were fairly healthy during that run. People forget that the Packers have half a dozen starters on the IR list.

    I guess people are counting on these backup substitutions for their starters to pay off:

    RB: James Starks(R) in for Ryan Grant.
    RT: Bryan Bulaga(R) in for Mark Tauscher.
    TE: Andrew Quarless(R) in for Jermichael Finley.
    MLB: Desmond Bishop in for Nick Barnett.
    LOLB: Erik Walden in for Frank Zombo(R) in for Brad Jones.
    LDE: Ryan Pickett in for Johnny Jolly.
    SS: Charlie Peprah in for Morgan Burnett(R) in for Atari Bigby.
    CB: Trammond Williams in for Al Harris.

    Not to mention missing key DE/LB rotation guys like Neal, Poppinga, Chillar who even cut the depth further.

    Walden is a current starter that was on the street back in October, the depth is so thin at that LB position.

    In a lot of ways, the Packers are getting it done with "smoke & mirrors". How does that compare to a "real" team?

    Yes but the Falcons lost Brian Williams this year so in my mind the two teams are even now as far as injuries go.

    sportsbook.com is begging for action on Atlanta. Line is down to -1 from -2.5 even though 51% are on Atlanta.

    Brian Williams is not even a starter. Grimes and Robinson are the starting corners. Williams only has 21 tackles on the year, hardly a major contributor. Christopher Owens, who also has 21 tackles on the year, will likely step up in for Williams on nickel duty. It's not clear to me at all that this will have a major impact when you are talking about backup corners. You must've been speaking sarcastically about this lone injury for the Falcons.
