I'm trying to compare injuries for both teams. Packers have three significant injuries losing Raji, Tretter and Barclay. I'm looking at the Seattle injury report but I'm not seeing any name that jumps out at me as being significant except for Bruce Irvin, who might even be ready to play by Thursday, which means they are effectively at full strength.
The big question for me is whether the Packer defense is for real this year. If they can't slow down Marshawn Lynch and put some pressure on Wilson then I can't see a win. Who will match up on Percy Harvin will be interesting to see. Will it be Shields or Tramon?
On the offensive side, it all comes down to the Packers front five and TE blocking. They slow down the Hawks pass rush, Packers win. Which of the two is the better blocker, Quarless or Rogers? Rogers has looked pretty good in preseason as a receiver, how's his blocking?
