Based on what we’ve seen so far, if the Pack is within 7 at the end we should be very, very happy.
We’re going to lose the line of scrimmage in both directions, so they will run on us and we won’t run on them.
We should be decent at covering the passing game, but they have a great QB so will probably put 200+ on us. We’d better do a lot better passing this week, or we’re really going to be in a hole.
I’m hoping for a hurricane.
