From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
The Green Bay Packers (3-4) take a trip to play the Buffalo Bills (5-1) on Sunday Night Football. It is the first prime-time game between the two teams.
Green Bay and Buffalo have alternated wins in the series since 1994 with each club winning four contests.
Only four of the 13 previous contests in the series have been decided by single digits.
Green Bay won the last matchup, a 22-0 victory at home in 2018. It will be the Packers first regular-season game at Buffalo since 2014.
Neither team has won a road game in the series since 1991, a 34-24 victory by the Bills.
The Packers will be looking for their first-ever win at Buffalo. The Bills are the only team in the NFL that the Packers have not won a road game against.
It is the second game of a three-game road stretch, marking just the third time this century (2012 and 2016) that Green Bay plays three straight contests on the road.

Honestly, expectations are tempered. I am looking for specific things from this game, things I believe can get better:
Offensive line cohesion
WRs and QB on same page
Utilizing the backs
Play selection, ie... motion, RPO, play action
How defense defends Allen (Would like to see Walker/Campbell spy instead of more zone)
Defensive coverage, zone/man
Special teams as a whole

It's been a while, but:
2018 Patriots
2018 Rams
2017 Vikings
2017 Steelers
Many games in 2005

This is the perfect opportunity for the Packers to shock the world, but I am just not feeling it...feels more like a 48-10 Bills type game. Hope I'm wrong!

I heard that this is the first time in his career that Rodgers has been a double-digit underdog.
Bills -11.5 is easy money.
Unfortunately I can't bet against the pack but that's easy cover.
I'd be uneasy taking the Pack at +20.5 at this point. Just zero faith in this offense right now and it looks as though Lazard will be out, too. Egads.
Still pulling for a win but this is about as unexpecting of it happening that I can remember, at least since the 80's and those Randy Wright led teams.
You can't deny that you still have that sliver of optimism deep down in your soul, as small as it may be that the Packers surprise the world on Sunday. Like Texans game circa 2012, Arizona last year. I'm sure there's more. Seems like we have a history of making things interesting when everyone counts us out. That being said, that sliver is about as tiny as it's ever been for me.
