The Packers need to go into this game as if it's a "tune up" game... starters play lights-out, crisp, disciplined, and dismantle NO by halftime. MLF can then begin sprinkling in backups in Q3, with most starters given Q4 off. Perfect time of year for a great game & give backups some playing time. Packers 38-Aints 17

Yes That’s the approach. Don’t rest your guys until that playoff spot gets locked. Let them know if we can get up 3 scores in 4th we will gradually rest some players due to a short week with travel. Otherwise we go into this with attitude this is Playoff game #1.
7 games left with 1 SB bye week
11-4 were a lock
Win this and we are 6 weeks from a SB Ring for each player. Your level of play going forward will highly likely determine your Salary and quality of lives for your family for the next 20 years. Multiplied by every player, coach and staff member you have met and their entire family. No pressure Here!

Never underestimate a back-up QB. Just look at what Willis did in his two games. They just have to go in there with a fire in their bellies and sharp focus. ML needs to use his head and not lose focus. Keep his head in the game. We should win this game but it's not going to be a walk in the park. GPG

Hopper got 3 snaps last week. Wonder if they’ll use him peppered in a little more. I expect Quay to take a week off.

We lost Jordan Morgan for the season on IR this morning. Both 3rd Rounders have had little to zero impact on O or D (other than Teams)
Edgerrin and Evan are life savers. 2 players of the top 5 draft picks that contribute. Cooper is playing like he’s 2 Defenders

LaFleur has his team focused and won't be taking this team lightly. They've had too many close calls against inferior opponents. I expect the Packers to take care of business. Packers 31 - Saints 10.
