Ok this is simply a question of opinion...
All you hear is how a passing team like the Saints or whoever coming to Lambeau in the freezing temps can't win without a run game.
My question is, what makes the Packers different? Do we assume that they can pass through any elements because they have practice time in those conditions the week prior? Won't it be just as hard for Aaron Rogers to pass in those conditions as Drew Brees? As far as running games go I'm not sure I don't like the EVERY NFC playoff team's running game more than the Packers. I just wonder if everyone is wrong to assume that GB has a huge advantage in the cold JUST because it's their home field. I think I would have more confidence in the Packers to beat a team in a dome than in Lambeau. If the Packers play the Bears in the AFC Championship in Lambeau, do the bear have an advantage over them because they can run consistently? I know the 9ers play in sunny San Fran but with their rushing attack n hard nosed defense would they have more of an advantage over GB's aerial attack playing in Wisconsin as opposed to California?
I think it's a valid question..let me know what you think.
