The Packers and Saints are still the only NFC playoff teams from last year over .500.

playing against any of the early powerhouse teams like NE, Balt, San Fran, etc

The 49ers offense=Ted Ginn+Frank Gore+Vernon Davis. Shut those three down, and the points will dry up.

Tom Brady is throwing for a lot of yards, but he’s also on pace to throw a career high number of interceptions, too.

The Ravens just have a crushing defense right now, and I think they’re the only team in the NFL that could give the Packers a tough time right now.

Three have been difficult games, and even the Panthers was not a gimme despite their record. Three are ridiculously easy.

That said, it is a favorable schedule, without a single team the Packers should lose to. Don’t have to play the NFC East, AFC North or AFC East. Couldn’t be better.
