[QUOTE="Packerlifer, post: 593127, member: 1242"] If it makes any difference to the players the underdog role may reduce the pressure enough to loosen the guys up without taking away their focus and motivation. From a fan perspective I think there was more pressure about last week's game. It would have been awful to lose at home to that team in that situation. This week's game reminds me of the Jan. '96 playoff at San Fran. The Niners were then the reigning Super Bowl champions, with Steve Young, Jerry Rice, et.al. when the Packers went out there for a divisional playoff and won 27-17 to advance to the NFC title game for the first time. Unfortunately, in the club's history, that's the only time the Packers achieved a major playoff upset. Every other time they've been the underdog they have lost. [/QUOTE]
