Yes, the Packers showed up and played well against the Cowboys in a game they absolutely needed. Now they will play the Niners who have very quietly been a tough opponent on the road. In the faces of the Cardinals they won, they lost by 3 @ Minnesota in what was a Favre miracle, and they led late in Indinapolis but fell by 4 points all three of those teams are better than the Packers. 49ers also get 3 extra days of preparation time as they are coming off a Thursday win against the Bears.
This is a unique situation because the Packers will also be playing on Thanksgiving day and will have the short rest in the back of their minds for sure. The 49ers picked off Jay Cutler 5 times in their last game and their defense is very solid under their head coach Mike Singletary. I wouldn't be surprised to see them shut down Aaron Rodgers at all in what I think will be a very close game in Green Bay.
