[QUOTE="Heatherthepackgirl, post: 201016, member: 416"] Posted: Jan. 14, 2008 LeRoy Butler 5 Questions E-MAIL Former Packers all-pro safety LeRoy Butler teams up with Journal Sentinel beat writer Tom Silverstein in our weekly "Questions with LeRoy Butler" feature. This week, he breaks down what the Packers have to do to beat the Giants in the NFC Championship Game. Q: How impressed were you with the New York Giants and what they were able to do to the Dallas Cowboys despite missing three players in the secondary? A: They're like an injured animal.
