TNF on Amazon Prime **Tennessee at Green Bay** (-3, 41) (1 Viewer)

Tennessee is one of the better Rush Defenses, 3.9 yds per carry don't bode well for the GB RBs although we haven't heard much from AJ Dillon all year, tonight isn't likely to break the trend.
Aaron Jones is going to break 1,000 total yds this week and he's well on his way to a career high in rush yds and total yds, don't think many expected that this season.

Yeah, regarding Jones, kind of the opposite of preseason FF expections. Talk of him being huge in the passing game and splitting the rushing down the middle with Dillion. But other than the 9 catch game against Washington, it's been 2-3 catches a game.

Only 2 rushing TDs as well. Watch a lot of red zone so see the plays run in close. Amazed at how often GB passes on early downs from the 1 yard line OR gives to Dillion, but Dillion has only scored 1 TD. Maybe give the ball more to your best player in close? Just a thought. I own zero share of Aaron Jones, so no self interest, but just surprised at the play calling in close.

We hear on social media the entire team and coaching staff are on shrooms and peyote all off season, what do you expect from a bunch of hallucinogen hooligans?
 
Dillon had a monster game against them two years ago and although those were very different teams, I expect him to have a good game tonight. It’s a known fact for Thursday night games that heavy usage in the prior Sunday game doesn’t bode well for Thursday game performance. Jones had 24 touches to Dillon’s 13 on Sunday. I love Jones but have to imagine they get Dillon more involved tonight. Also, that Tenn D is beat up and ripe for a letdown game (2 starters already ruled out and a few others are banged up).
 
A night game in "The Frozen Tundra". Too bad it's a Thursday Night. We need The Voice of God John Facenda to counter the Thursday Night jinx. You younger people can google John Facenda.
Help me out here homies,but it looks like 29 degrees with snow? You'd think the running game would prosper,but defenders have said receivers have an advantage when it's slippery. Packers saved their season last week with a win over the overrated Cowboys. Typical Titans team,they don't look great they just win. A little white percipitation would make this a fun game to watch,from home,on my lazy boy,with my blanket on me. I'll play on The Vegas over/under and go with...

Cheeseheads- 22
Team Formerly Known as The Oilers- 19
 
I'm so torn on this game.

King Henry vs a terrible Packers Run defense or Hippie'd out Aaron Rodgers vs a terrible Titans Pass defense. Seems to play more into Titans hands with what they want to do offensively.

Packers were in a must win situation against Dallas, is this game a must win as well? Titans continue to play hurt and when you think about counting them out, they outperform every time. Cold weather could be a factor but it isn't like Titans are a bunch of softees.

Short week, Thursday night snooze fest? Hell No, excitement throughout! I am going Titans 28 - Packers 24.
 
If the Packers win this game they will have the most wins in NFL history - breaking a tie with the Chicago Bears who won most of their games before the NFL expanded beyond 8 teams.

That terrible Titans pass defense only had to rush 4 against the Chiefs and really causes a problem for the passing and running game. I see that same formula tonight.

I have a feeling this might be low scoring.

TN D getting J. Simmons back. They were tough anyways against the run.

I gotta think this is a big Arod throwing game plan against that TN secondary.
 
Starting A-Aron with Brady on bye. I expect to experience a mild bout of depression around 10:43pm EST tonight.
 
I'll say, Packers 28, Titans 17.

I'm expecting the Packers passing game to keep it up from last week, Watson won't have 3 TDs, but I think he's probably a solid start, as is Rodgers. Not expecting as much from the running game for GB.

I think Henry could get game scripted a bit here. He needs to hit early in my opinion this week. Treylon Burks might be an interesting sleeper.
 
I don't know about this one. Packers D is tough and I'm not sure Tennessee can throw the football effectively. Then again, Titans run D is stellar and Packers are going to need to throw to win.

I've got the advantage to the home team and the Packers.

But I have a bigger dilemma: Christian Watson or Allen Lazard in fantasy? I'm not starting both, but picking this one is inordinately tough.

Floor, Lazard. Ceiling, Watson. Median Lazard. Mean, Watson. Hope that was helpful.

I'm heavily favored. I've found that's always a suspect way to play, espcially a full IDP game.

So I get what you're saying, but it doesn't really help all that much, darn it. Thanks for playing and paying attention, though. I appreciate it.

Lazard is in right now but all it takes is a click of the mouse. I think Watson scores on a bomb tonight. His release is too pure, his speed is too great to hang with. We shall see.

CBSsports' algorithm has Mike Williams, Lazard, Watson in the 8.xx range, non-ppr. Flip a coin.

I know they just scored, but that's not a way to succeed in the pros. It might get you to the playoffs, but you'll never catch a Super Bowl that way. The past years have proven that.
