the pack signed this robinson ...is he available to play next week?

Thompson and Robinson both spoke on Monday as though Robinson would be able to play right away for the Packers, but he could face a suspension from the NFL.

"He's not suspended at this time," Keels said.

I also am scared of the Pack. Anyone who looks past this game is making a big mistake. If anyone can take advantage of a young set of Safeties its gonna be Favre. Ahman Green will truly test the Run D that looked so good last week. If any team has something to prove next week, its the Packers. They will be coming out to prove they are not the worst in the league (well obviously the arent, have you seen the Raiders?).

That is BS, if the NFL lets Robinson play the Saints and then serve him with a mandatory suspension the following week.

I'll think we'll win. And also I don't think Payton is gonna let the team sleep on em. Although Farve has lost allot, you can't be too carefull with one of the greastest QB's of all time.

The Pack offense played the (arguably) best defense in the league and got annihilated. While the Saints' D is much improved, unless as much pressure can be exerted on Farve as the Bears did the game will in doubt. Young will have to have another monster game and the linebacking corps are going to have to shut the run down in a hurry so that Farve gets into long yardage situations. The Pack O-line is not set up for blitzes, just like any other McCarthy offense. Run blitzes and 8 in the box might be the order of the day. In the end, if we settle for field goals instead of touchdowns, it just keeps hope in Farve's heart which is THE danger.

Agreed. I think the Pack rushed for over 100 yards against the Bears.

Is this just one more opportunity for the NFL to screw the saints.

let's do a little poppingaing on gb...

New Orleans' tight ends didn't catch a single pass in their 19-14 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, but you can be sure Saints coach Sean Payton saw and noted how the Chicago Bears used their tight end to exploit Green Bay Packers linebacker Brady Poppinga.

fantasy outlook from Brandt-

New Orleans at Green Bay: The Saints beat Green Bay 52-3 last year ... I like both RBs for New Orleans, Deuce McAllister and Reggie Bush. Keep in mind that when McAllister is in the game, it's a run. He ran 22 times with no catches last week, while with Bush it's a 50-50 call, pass vs. run. I like QB Drew Brees -- one of two quarterbacks not sacked last week. I usually avoid picking rookie receivers to make an impact, but keep an eye on Marques Colston ... For Green Bay, RB Ahman Green looks good. He's the only Packer I'd look at.
