Packers: 16-0 Doesn’t mean Squat without the Lombardi Trophy
The Packers are the NFC North Division Champions for 2011
Following the Lions’ loss in New Orleans on Sunday night, the Green Bay Packers are the NFC North Division champions for 2011. That result, combined with the Packers’ 38-35 win over the New York Giants earlier in the day, clinched the 2011 championship crown for the first time since 2007.
Should the Packers win home field advantage throughout the playoffs, they would need to only win twice at Lambeau Field in the postseason to return to the Super Bowl. Last season, the Packers won three times on the road in the postseason en route to the Super Bowl XLV… Continue reading

The Packers Smash the Vikings!
The Green Bay Packers Chalk up another victory as Aaron Rodgers continued on his seemingly unstoppable march to league MVP honors. Overall the Packers remain the NFL’s lone undefeated team, and if they can just count on a defense to complement their high-octane offense, they just might be unstoppable.
The NFL’s reigning champions improved to 9-0 for the fourth time in the franchise’s history by overwhelming the Minnesota Vikings 45-7, sweeping the border war for two consecutive years. Green Bay extended its franchise-best winning streak, which includes last year’s run to Super Bowl XLV, to 15 games. A second-round rookie… Continue reading
Top 5 Trade Predictions for the Green Bay Packers
In the NFL, the majority of trades that take place are during the NFL draft. These trades can either bring excitement or disappointment to a team. Here is a look at five likely players whom the Green Bay Packers might trade during the NFL draft.
Matt Flynn The revelation that Matt Flynn might have what it takes to be a starting quarterback came during the Packers game against New England. No one thought the Packers stood a chance against one of the best teams in the NFL, but Flynn’s play was exceptional. He almost lead the Packers to a victory,… Continue reading
Bringing the Super Bowl XLV Trophy Home !
We’ve been dubbing the term “Super Bowl Champions” for 44 years now, and we’re on the threshold of Super Bowl 45 where the Green Bay Packers will face the Pittsburgh Steelers at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington Texas. In contemplation of what I believe will be an excellent game between these two AFC and NFC champion football teams, it is noteworthy to elaborate on the role these two great teams have played in Super Bowl history.
How the Super Bowl Began The genesis of the Super Bowl as we know it today is the result of a merger agreement between the… Continue reading
Packers Lineman B.J. Raji Advances Packers To Superbowl
Don’t let the title fool ya, the entire Green Bay Packers team played an awesome game against the Chicago Bears today. However, had it not been for the pick by B.J. Raji things would definitely be different.
What started out as a game like that of the Green Bay Packers vs. Atlanta Falcons just one week ago, soon turned into a game that rested on the Packers defense — at least that’s the way I saw the game? I’m sure I’m not the only one who saw it that way either. The truth is that had it not been for… Continue reading
Green Bay Packers vs. Atlanta Falcons
The Packers earned the right to visit Atlanta with a wild-card round victory over the Eagles in Philadelphia. The Packers jumped out to a 14-3 lead in that game, relying on its always-stout defense and a new-found running game to grind the Eagles to a halt.
Atlanta earned a first-round bye by virtue of its NFC-best 13-3 record in the regular season — a mark that included a win over Green Bay in Atlanta. The Falcons are hoping to use the same rowdy home-field edge their division rival, the Saints, did last season en route to the Super Bowl.
OFFENSE… Continue reading
James Starks Revives the Packers Running Game
Green Bay Packers Rookie James Starks, who missed his senior year at Buffalo with a shoulder injury — as well as the first nine weeks of the 2010 season — seemed to have become just an afterthought in the eyes of the NFL… But Starks, who carried the ball a mere 29 times for 101 yards in three games after being activated by Green Bay in November, was the unexpected hero in Sunday’s Packers victory over the Eagles.
Green Bay Packers Rookie, James Starks
Starks was pivotal on the game’s first scoring drive, breaking off a 27-yard run on… Continue reading
Rodgers and Jennings Connect In the 4th
With a 46 yard pass completion to Greg Jennings, Aaron Rogers advanced the Packers; ultimately scoring with a touchdown-pass to Donald Lee for a 10 to 3 lead over the Chicago Bears.
The crowd roared when the Packers took the lead just two minutes into the 4th quarter at Lambeau field. In what could be dunned the first Packers vs. Bears rivalry game of 2011, it certainly was no push-over by either team. It has been a very entertaining game to watch — even from the couch.
With less than 10 minutes remaining in the 4th quater, Chicago has the… Continue reading
Jennings and Rodgers Unstoppable
Let’s be honest, is there a better duet than Aaron Rodgers and Greg Jennings in the NFL right now? Whenever I have to make my NFL Picks, I always take a lot with the team facing the Green Bay Packers and basically look for the match-up Jennings will have in addition to the pass rushing defense against Rodgers.

This past Sunday, Jennings and Rodgers crushed the San Francisco 49ers, recording 122 yards on six receptions and two touchdowns. The amazing thing is that Jennings usually catches passes for big gains because his speed allows… Continue reading

The Packers get the win against Philadelphia
For the first game of the season the Green Bay Packers appeared to show a little bit of hope against Philadelphia in the first three quarters of the game. Green Bay held on for a 27-20 season-opening victory at Lincoln Financial Field when the defense stopped Eagles backup quarterback Michael Vick on fourth-and-1 from the Green Bay 42-yard line with under two minutes left! The Packers not only erased 48 years of bad history – nine straight losses in Philly since 1962, including that infamous 2003 playoff game with the fourth-and-26 conversion – but proved at least for now they… Continue reading
