Very similar to what you see with Russell Wilson.
Even with out banged up secondary I think the defense has enough to contain that offense.
As far as Green Bay's defense goes? I think we have enough weapons to put points on them.
The biggest key is to be up by more than 7 as the 4th quarter is winding down so you remove the "Rodgers magic" element from the game. I expect he will make a few of those plays throughout the course of 4 quarters, but the key is not to lose the game on one of those kinds of plays.

If I remember correctly they've had a patchwork wide receiver core this year. It all started when they lost Jordy Nelson for the year back in training camp. Hopefully that bodes well for us but I feel like as soon as teams sleep on the Packers they are able to take control. No way we take this for granted though.
