They've shown they can outgun NO, but that was early.
I like the Packers chances. I like them a lot better if they don't see San Francisco, but I haven't seen that club in action yet this year, I'm just going on stats, which mean almost nothing come playoff time.
I get to see what San Fran looks like when they play my Steelers this weekend.
From what I've been able to tell from watching some of them this year, they're kind of like the Steelers on defense. Have a stout front seven that is equally adept at both stopping the run and getting after the quarterback, but their secondary is shaky (18 team interceptions is a deceptive number). If Roethlisberger can evade the rush with his flat tire, he should carve them up.

We always have Heath and Hines over the middle to spread the field, so if it's gonna be a short field game, then so be it.
I'm looking forward to it. It'll be nice to get a look at San Fran right before the playoffs.

KC Chiefs leading the Packers 6 - 0. I honestly want Green Bay to get the perfect season but I love my KC Chiefs. By the way I grew up in a Packer home before being a fan was cool. My dad made us eat on Green Bay Packers placemats that he made from his Packers Report newspapers.

Excuse me while I Happy Dance in this thread. 19 to 14 KC Chiefs take down the SUPER bowl Champions and previously undefeated Packers. This 1 win makes this lousy season okay for this KC fan.

Congrats to the Chiefs. They came to play. Our receivers obviously didn't. Anytime Finley talks about picking up the slack, what he usually ends up picking up is the ball after he drops it.

Well, the defense didn't show up to play. Or should I say, the defense played like they normally play - unable to stop anything. And without the big plays, the take-aways, what happens? Yep, you got it! KC defeats the Packers.

Add to that an offensive line that couldn't protect Rodgers and receivers, yes, receivers (more than one) who cannot hang onto the ball, and you will lose.

Now that have a loss. Maybe this will be the wake-up call to get them to step up their game.

I seriously think that part of the problem was that they thought this would be a cake walk game, and they got theirs handed to them.

I'm tired of hearing McCarthy say they're gonna work on the defense and start playing championship caliber defense. SHOW me.

Yuck! What in the hey happened? Just glad that the game wasn't televised out here in the Los Angeles region.

Obviously our "D" left their gamebag back in Green Bay, and it appears (per the above posts) that our receivers had greasy palms today.

So, they now have a lost under their belts and probably needed it to reduce the swelling on their heads.

This may give them a little motivation now for the remaining games at home in Green Bay.

Congratulations KC Chiefs

I kept telling people the Packers are only human, they will lose sooner or later.
Sorry to all you Packer fans, you have a great looking SB team though!

In all honesty I am a little bummed they aren't going to have the perfect season now. I just had a feeling my Chiefs were going to show up today and they did.

My dad is not happy. My brother won't talk to me.

So will this Packer fan. Does it sting to lose, of course, is it the end of the season, no, it's one game. We still have the Division locked, a bye locked. We just need to have a defense. The offense had a bad game, they'll be back.

Going into this game without Greg Jennings I had hoped would not hurt. Well, it did a little. Whats worse, our make shift offensive line got a little more make shift with two going out in this game. If we can't protect our QB, we won't have much luck. Let's hope we get healthy bodies back in time for the playoffs.

13-1 is nothing to be ashamed of, but if key injuries start to bite us more than they have, it may be a short post season. Still, I'm proud of what this team has accomplished in the past two years, and they ain't going anywhere for a while.

Loss now? Or loss in the post-season?

I'll take it now.
