But no d......d wins ringsSpeaking of SBs, the Packers won it just a few years ago. They also just developed something they haven't had lately - a running game.

Honesty, it's the O Line that sucks for them. They don't have a CHI/SEA/SF D, but they are okay at D. The fact that GB is still letting Mason Crosby kick is the biggest mystery.
Without Crabtree, your offense will be somewhat diminished, although Boldin will likely prove useful.
The Pack will take it all. Everything else is detail.
Wasn't too impressed with most aspects of the Seahawks game. Defense was good again in the red zone and on the goal line, and Christine Michael was superb at RB (also, WR Stephen Williams continues to impress me). Wilson was terrible, and the O Line was terrible. Luckily, it was an elite opponent at Lambeau Field, so most teams shouldn't give us as much trouble.

We have a plethora of receivers with Boldin being more than enough to fill in for Crabtree, there isn't a hole on that team to be found. Can the same be said for Seattle without Harvin and Rice?
I'm just hoping the Steelers rebound from 8-8 and are competitive. The o-line scares me a bit....hoping they'll gel
Well, you do have one hell of a QB.
If he stays healthy,, Pitt should make the playoffs in my opinion.
Problem with the Steelers is they will have trouble putting points on the board again....alot of 13-10 games, tough to win those week in and week out. That sucks too because I live here now in the center of the dark heart of Baltimore Ratbird country, would love to see the Steelers throttle the Baltimore "thugs" twice.
Boldin is, like, 100 years old. Your plethora of receivers is Vernon Davis, Vernon Davis and Vernon Davis. Boldin is mediocre at best at this stage of his career. Maybe you get something out of a rookie, but let's get real. I mean, yes, the Niners are good but their WRs are pretty terrible.
OCA, we didn't have Harvin last year, so it's not a huge loss. We will actually have him in time to play you at Candlestick (Crabtree will be back about the same time, I believe). Also, Rice is not out, and is only our #3 receiver. Rookies Kearse and Williams are actually looking better than Tate and Baldwin right now.
Really? Boldin was pretty much the MVP of the Ratbird ring run last year, without him they don't make it to the AFC title game........he's a beast, don't be like the Ratbird fans who day before he was traded said he's a "must keep" and then the day after saiud he's washed up, you and I both know he is the bomb.
Obviously you didn't watch the precision like excellence of the passing game Sunday night by the first unit against the Vikings................................we are loaded at WR. Lookout when Crabtree and Manningham get back. Besides that we won't even have to throw it much with the NFL's leading ground game and best o-line going.......we will just methodically march up and down.
Dude, Boldin had 7 touchdowns over the past two regular seasons. Seven. Maybe you only started paying attention in the playoffs last year. He's on the downside of his carrer. He'll put up a 70-900-5 line at best this year. That's decent, but it's hardly "the bomb." If SF had Crabtree to draw attention away from him (like he had iwth Torrey Smith in Blatimore) I'd be a bit more optimistic, but they don't.
Whoa, the Vikings . . . in preseason. That should be predictive of success in the regular season against a team with a decent secondary (not to mention a team with a stellar defense like the Seahawks). Lots of wishful thinking here. SF's ground game is legitimately dope, but the passing game is going to struggle with the exception of VD.
Ha, we annihilated you without Browner last season. Did you just blank out the massacre we handed you in the noise factory? How many games did you win last year in a succession where you scored forty or more points (3 for us)? How many times did you score 50? How many times did you beat the Rams?
Enjoy the first four weeks. If you do wind up 0-3, it's off to St. Louis for you!
