Every game is a big game when you’re on a quest to repeat as N.F.L. champions, and no game can be overlooked. When you play inferior teams, you want to guard against letdowns, and we assume Coach McCarthy has worked to put the fear of the 0-4 Rams into his team this week. Remember when the defending champion Packers played the 0-10 Colts in 1997 and lost? Such things can happen, and we hope that the Packers can play to the level they did last week in Atlanta.Please note when you tune in Sunday’s game, the Packers will be wearing their “Throwback” uniforms as they did last year against San Francisco (above). No green & gold for your eyes this week. We hope they will not be wearing the pink accessories with these uniforms, as the result just might be mass nausea.
Let’s proceed to some of the video segments we provide in our pre-game coverage each week. Here is the official N.F.L. game preview, which can be viewed here.
Coach Mike McCarthy’s Friday press conference highlights can be viewed here.
The weekly Packers.com video preview can be seen at this link.
Now, see a little segment on what the players think of the “Throwback” uniforms.
Lastly, here’s a great unseen photo gallery from the Green Bay Press-Gazette — coverage of the 1966 meeting between the Rams and Packers at Lambeau Field. The Packers won, 24-13.
