The pretenders have been (somewhat) separated from the contenders, as they say. The Jets, Cowboys, 49ers, Vikings, Chargers, and Indianapolis all went down. Both the contenders and pretenders have had some flaws exposed by their opponents. In the case of Green Bay, their limited depth on the defensive line may become a more serious problem in the coming weeks. The offense didn't exactly lay an egg, but didn't live up to expectations either. I think that they'll be just fine though. The defense overall played well in my opinion. Vick gashed them open for lots of rushing yards, but GB didn't game plan for him, and proper game planning is vital at the professional level. In the end, GB's defensive stars came out and shut down the Eagles just enough. Clay Matthews and Charles Woodson (among others) snuffed out Vick's last chance to tie the game, preserving the win.
My prediction was GB 31, PHI 13. If Kolb had been the starter all game I think that the final score might very well have been just that. We'll see how GB fares against the Buffalo Bills. Frankly the Bills suck and GB should just hammer them (knocking on wood.) We'll see.
