Game 8
Cheezy Fries
Colts @ Packers
Pregame
The Pack is back at home for 1 game before heading out on the road for 3 games. It's important to win this one since they won't get back to Lambeau till December and the Colts and playing pretty awful right now. Andrew has a horrific offensive line right now that has given up 31 sacks in the just the 1st half of the season. They can score points but the defense is not very good. If the Pack play like they did in Atlanta, they should win by 2 touchdowns.
The Pack will get back Quinten Rollins, Randall Cobb, and Ty Montgomery which should help. Corey Linsley will also be back starting at center but replacing JC Tretter due to injury who had done a great job up to this point. Having two great starting centers on the roster is a great problem to have.

Game Result
Packers lose 31-26!
Well, there's not much to say about this one other than they totally blew it! For all the good plays they made, they gave up more bad ones.
Especially memorable bad play included:
- Giving up a 99 yd touchdown on the opening kickoff
- Only scoring 3 points on the 1st 2 drives
- After finally getting an interception they missed a FG
- Scoring only 3 points in the 2nd & 3rd qtr
- Inability if the defense to make a stop on 3rd down on the Colt's last drive
Off to Tennessee next week for the start of their 3 game road trip.
Be well,
David
