Weather is expected to play a major role in this game here. We’ve already seen the Packers win a snowy contest at home this year, but there’s talk this could be the worst snow-related game in Green?Bay in quite a few years. If weather doesn’t have a huge impact on the game, look for Aaron Rodgers to continue to play well. The quarterback has 15 touchdown passes in home games this season and has gotten this team back to .500 on the season while winning four of six home games.
Seattle is without Earl Thomas in the middle of the field and that is probably going to play a role in this one. Without the best safety in the league roaming the field, it could give Rodgers the opportunity to hit big plays with Jordy Nelson up the seam or with his tight ends. Russell Wilson looks to be playing like his former self, which is good for football. When he has the ability to leave the pocket and make plays with his feet, Seattle becomes a much tougher team to beat.
The Packer defense is not a good one, but they have some talent up front that could be counted on to make plays. Seattle is 19-4 the last few seasons in November to January, where key games are played. But Green?Bay, which trails Detroit in the NFC?North, needs a big win in order to continue its playoff hopes. Couple that with the loss of Thomas and the Packers can win.
