GB hurt themselves dramatically (2 costly turnovers) in combination with the Eagles doing enough to hang around (no big mistakes)Without those turnovers GB likely wins that game IMO. The GB Offense put up 155 yards more than Philly. GB also controlled possession of the ball with just shy of 5 minutes more O game clock. Philly didn’t really win any stat. The 3rd down % was within 1% of each other. This 1 loss we had was decided by a couple plays. After watching that game, I would bet my next paycheck that GB would win 3 of 5 meetings if played in the same environment. It was not at all a decisive win.7 contests into the season no team has beat GB decisively. Very similar to 2010 in several respects, the D was a bend not break, the D was opportunistic with takeaways, the O was just good enough to make teams pay and 2010 team was never beat decisively.Getting a W at KC and Starting 7-1 would he huge because it would increase our chances dramatically of getting into the playoffs and having a game or two at Lambeau.  That goes a long way in increasing our odds at making a SB appearance.</blockquote>
