All the stars are aligned and while it may not be the dawning of the Age of Aquarius it may be the dawning of a Green Bay Packers playoff appearance. Yes it is only week two, but the percentages will be in the Packers’ favor if they can beat the Giants in New York and move to 2-0 on this young season. Even with star quarterback Eli Manning hurting or out with a shoulder injury, the Packers are still in for a tough game.
I think the Packers can win the game but I think it will be only if the win battle between their own ears. The Packers win over the Eagles last week seemed to raise a few eyebrows around the league and the Packers have a chance to gain some serious respect with a win this week. A loss however and that Eagles win was just a fluke and with San Diego coming to town and next week and trip to Minnesota the following week, 1-3 is a distinct possibility. If the Packers are to take that huge next step, it starts today.
I’m sorry, but I must be honest and the fact is I have a bad feeling this morning. 19-17 Giants.
