Gift of a Packers win on Thanksgiving


The Packer game against Detroit had the same feel as last week. After a short screw up fumble, and a couple of field goals, the Packers put it into high gear, and sped past the Lions. Then after a while, the Packers let the Lions back into the game. One strong drive, and it's lights out. I guess that I should forget about all that and enjoy the win. Donald Driver had a record day of 140+ yards. Brett Favre broke the pass completion streak by connecting 20 times in a row. He was just 2 passes shy of the NFL record. Ryan Grant pulled off over 100 yards, and the biggest part of his game came in that field goal scoring, put the game in the bank, drive at the end. Now, the hype is big for the Dallas game. Very big. History shows that the past six times that two 10-1 teams wend head to head, the results were split right down the middle. Some won on the road, some won at home. I'm fired up. Go Packers! Get that playoff birth nailed down, and get the bye week, and finally get home field advantage. Until then, just beat the Cowboys.
