Honestly my only concern about this game is Eddie Lacey and their running attack. They put up 150 on the lions and have 100+ in last 7 games. He ran with control and ease last week. With our depleted DT rotation I am so worried about them controlling the ball.
Can we stop Lacey?

They put up 150 on the lions.
110+ of that was in the first half before Rodgers went down.
After Rodgers was injured and wasn't a mobile threat, they ran the ball 20 times for 40 yards.
Rodger's lack of mobility means we don't have to stress contain as much, a LB can crash down on the RB. This might give some room for a short pass over the middle. If they want to try that against Chancellor, that'd be great.
Only 4 players all year ran for more than 55 yards against the Seahawks, and only two of them ran for more than 100 - Jamaal Charles, and Demarco Murray.

LOL yes we can. We have a guy named Kevin Williams that knows a thing or two about playing the Packers too...

The answer is yes we can.
The question is WILL we stop Lacey. That is going to be a huge key in this game.

That just goes to show how important stopping Lacy is. We lost both games where we allowed a 100 yard rusher.

Rodgers is no threat at all to take off and burn us with his legs. That makes containing Lacey much easier for Seattle. Honestly, the Hawks could not have gotten a better opponent for the NFC CG. :th2thumbs:

Someone correct me if I'm wrong...but weren't we without Bobby Wagner for the Chiefs and the Cowboys games? Wasn't KJ filling in at Mike?

Wagner was injured against the Cowboys in game five iirc, and did not return till game ten vs Arizona. KC was game nine the week prior.

It's a legit question. Mostly because I think the Packers are well aware that their best chance to win is to run the ball.
Which Lacey shows up, the one who remembers (or doesn't remember) getting knocked out last time? Or the one who hung it on a Lions team?

This is probably the best answer I've heard. The analogy would be to imagine our running game with Wilson limited to pocket passing without mobility. It would be tough sledding even for Lynch, and Lacy is no Lynch...and ours is not the Cowboys D.

LACES OUT!
Well he will be when Bam Bam Killa Kam lays him out with a wham.

Now that's some good comedy.
Seriously, what has Lacy ever done to us before ? He's the kind of back we thrive on stopping. We have trouble with guys that are fast to the edge like Charles. Big lumbering backs that make their hay breaking tackles aren't the kind of backs that beat us.
