What the World Thinks: Week 5

Posted by Kurt Bohland

October 5, 2007 |

It would appear that after 4 straight victories, the Packers are finally getting some respect around the NFL. That and the fact that they are playing the Bears this week, has meant everyone is picking the Packers to win. Even all the ESPN guys have picked them.

Zac Wassink says in his weekly predictions:


Really? The Packers? Undefeated still? Who could have guessed? I don’t see them losing to the Bears on Sunday night. Rumor is that I’ll be getting a phone call soon to play QB for the Bears. I’m flattered but I don’t know if Emily wants to move to Chicago. We’ll get back to you.

Winner: Green Bay

Real Football 365 says:

At this point, the Bears can only win with a Brett Favre-like quarterback; unfortunately, they’re playing the real thing on Sunday night. Packers roll to fifth victory, 30-9.

Fannation.com writers say:

Astonishing stat for a 4-0 team: Not one of the Packers’ top four rushers have accumulated 100 yards yet. They’re horrible at the run game, but their pass game has been fantastic. I don’t think the Pack is infallible, but I think it’s going to take a superhuman effort on somebody’s part for the Bears to regain their footing.

Green Bay 24, Chicago 16

So there you have it, a sampling of the predictions for this Sunday’s game against the hapless Bears. Sunday night. Madden and Michaels. Lambeau Field. This is the big time.

My prediction. Expect Madden to start talking about the sweat stains of the players and the dietary habits of lineman by the middle of the third quarter.

Packers win… big time.

    I am SHOCKED that the packers are still undefeated. Good luck maybe? Favre threatening all the guys to do better this year so he can go out with a bang? Dunno..but whatever it is, even I have to grudgingly admit it’s working for them….
