It's All Me ::
Now that the Packers lost and blew their opportunity for home field advantage, I no longer fancy their chances of reaching the Super Bowl. The reasons are simple: 1) The Packers barely beat Atlanta the first week of the season with most everyone healthy. Without Donald Driver and perhaps Darren Sharper, I don't think they stand a chance. 2) Should the Packers win on Saturday, they'll either have to play in Tampa or Philadelphia, and I don't fancy their chances against either team. Should the same Philly offense show up that showed up against the Giants on Saturday, then the Packers might have a chance. Should the Tampa defense show up at all, then I don't give the Packers any chance, even if Brad Johnson doesn't play. It may be time to start thinking about next season.
In other football news, congratulations to the Golden Gophers on dominating Arkansas in their 29-14 win in yesterday's Music City Bowl. I was a little worried when I saw the ease with which Arkansas marched through the Minnesota defense on the opening possession, but then the defense stepped up and stuck it to the Razorbacks. The offense had one of their best performances of the season, capped off by touchdowns by Utecht and Tapeh and 5 Nystrom field goals. Additional congratulations go out to Dan Nystrom for becoming the new all-time field goal leader in Big Ten history. Of course, out of the 70+ field goals he kicked in his collegiate career, the biggest had to be the game winner a few years back against then-#2 Penn State. Rah rah ski-u-mah!
