I am going to go light myself on fire now for saying that.

The "Class" of the NFC?

Isn't that taking things waaaaay too far?

They're a solid team, and they're surging right now, but they were 10-6 in the regular season...along with 3 other teams. They were behind Chicago in the NFCN.

The fact that they're a hot team RIGHT NOW does NOT make them the "class of the NFC". It means that they are simply a hot team that peaked at the right time.

Of course, so were WE last season...

Agreed, I guess a better way to say it is: From what I see lately they appear to be the clear favorite in the NFC. They are firing on all cylinders, and I think that Chicago will have a tough time with them. Having said that, I am rooting for Chicago this weekend as it is the lesser of two evils. I think that it will be GB and PIT in the big dance.

I was thoroughly impressed with what I have seen from GB, and especially Aaron Rodgers in the playoffs.

Now I will re-ignite myself just to get it out of my head!!
