Keys To The Matchup: Packers vs. Seahawks

From the Onion:

http://www.theonion.com/articles/keys-to-the-matchup-packers-vs-seahawks,37791/

Green Bay:
• Given Marshawn Lynch's ability to break tackles, don't be afraid to put a seventh or even eighth man on him.
• Keep pressure on Russell Wilson by whispering to him that this is his contract year.

Seattle:
• Be prepared for Aaron Rodgers to quickly move outside the pocket and toward the direction of medical treatment.
• Consider benching Richard Sherman, who didn't once touch the football when the Seahawks met the Packers in the regular season.

You can take that to the bank.

That's my in-depth analysis and it's probably about as good as you'll hear from the sports talking heads over the next couple of days.

A missed holding call here, a withdrawn penalty there and the game can flip around in mere seconds. Stalin would be proud.

However, I would prefer that GB win.

unfortunately I feel that the Seahawk's defense will be too much for GB.
