The game sets up poorly for Green Bay.
I see the Packers turning the ball over 2 or 3 times, giving the Chief offense a little jolt.
KC wins this game 20-17.
I see it this way as well, with the exception of the "destiny" factor that seems to be GB's forte, at least so far.
No fucking way should Denver have lost the game last week, yet they did.
GB was lucky to hold on against Washington, the week before, too.
GB and KC are by far my two favorite teams -- GB's always been my NFC team, and KC my AFC team. The last time they played (3 years ago, I think it was) at Lambeau, was a FANTASTIC game, with huge swings in momentum on both sides. KC came back, down 17, and ended up winning the game.
Both teams this year aren't as good on paper as the teams that played each other a few years ago. GB obvioulsy has a better offense, though it's been predicated on Favre's arm. The defenses are about even ... maybe a slight edge goes to Green Bay. But with KC at home, this should be a very intriguing game.
It wouldn't surprise me if it went into OT, unless Favre gets hurt.
