Traveling to Lambeau Field to take on the Packers at home is never an easy game. This game will be a true test of where this season is going. A win in Lambeau will set up a good platform to start a streak and get above .500 for the first time this season.
A lot rides on whether Champ Bailey can handle Greg Jennings one on one, and if the Denver defense will step up and keep the game close in the first half. In the second half, there is no doubt that Tebow can take over and win the game if he needs to, but it would be nice to not have him trying to claw back a 20 point deficit in 7 minutes. There will be lots of prayers for Denver tonight.
