Week 9 vs the Lions Pre-Week Chat

The play of the defense will determine if the Packers get a W or a L. And the D needs to bring it. That means Hafley can't channel his inner Joe Barry as he did in the 2nd half against the Jags. No soft zones, play man, and get after Goff.

Goff and the rest of the Lions are extremely confident in themselves, as they should be. So the Packers need to bring the game to the Lions. As Mike Tyson said - everyone has a plan until they get hit in the mouth.

So come out swinging and hit some people in the mouth.

The game will be physical. The bye will be what we need. They will hit us. Let us hit them back. We play them again...at least once.

I'm anxious to see just how good some of our depth players do in this game against the Lions. It's time we find out just what we really have available, as we near crunch time. After the bye, it's going to be all hands on deck, and that's when we see where we land as far as the playoffs.

If Love sits, I won't be disappointed. Better to have him a lot healthier coming off the bye. It would also be a true test of just how much juice Willis has, against a top team. Also, with the make shift offensive line, with Myers out, we're going to find out just how much the Packers can do with quick passes. Also, we will more than likely see a lot more of our back up RBs, with Jacobs nursing a bad ankle.

Games like this are a test of character. Looking forward to it. The Packers just need to be it until the end, so they can steal the win. We've seen quite a bit of that lately.
