If youre a fan of any NFL team aside from the Green Bay Packers, the mission is simple: the champions must be stopped. Cheap Authentic Jerseys . Heading into the Thanksgiving Day classic against the 7-3 Detroit Lions on Thursday, the Packers remain the NFLs only undefeated squad in 2011. But it doesnt just stop there, of course. Factoring in the teams run to Super Bowl XLV, the team won its last two games of the season to grab the final NFC Wild Card spot before their championship playoff run began. In total, the Packers have won 16 straight games, including last years playoffs. The teams last loss came December 19, 2010 against Tom Bradys Patriots. The Packers are performing at an elite level on both sides of the ball. So, the question begs, can they be stopped? And, if so, when? One key to the teams ability to string together a perfect season may lie in the quality of competition they face within their own division. Detroit and Chicago are both sitting on 7-3 records. In any other division, both teams would have at least a share of first place, apart from the NFC West (where the 49ers have put together one of the quietest 9-1 seasons in recent memory, thanks in part to the perfect Pack). So, whos left in the way of the perfect regular season? The biggest hurdles probably come from the aforementioned division rivals. The Bears have one remaining contest against the Packers, but its at Lambeau Field. While both teams never lack incentive to play hard against one another, you have to like Green Bays odds at home. Say what you will about the impact of Jay Cutlers absence for the Bears and the effect it will have on their chances, the fact remains that the Packers have not lost in regulation at home since Brett Favres return with the Vikings in November 2009. The key opponent may end up being the Lions, who have two games remaining against the Pack. The Thanksgiving Day game will be hard-fought, as the once-perfect Lions hope to remain in the thick of the playoff chase in their highest-profile home game of the year. However, should Detroit fall short Thursday, they still have another crack at the Packers in the seasons final week. If the Lions can stay in the hunt and the Packers have not lost by then, the team could opt to rest some regulars, opening the door for the Lions to push for a Wild Card berth. But that game, too, is at Lambeau. As for the rest of the opposition, the Packers will have to travel to MetLife Stadium to face the Giants and the host the Oakland Raiders, who both boast 6-4 records heading into Week 12. The teams only other game is against the Kansas City Chiefs (currently 4-6) on the road. One major factor in the Packers quest for perfection is whether they are even after it in the first place. True, no team since the 1972 Dolphins has had a perfect regular season and added a Super Bowl ring on top of it. The 2007 Patriots went for perfection and achieved it in the regular season, only to fall to the Giants in Super Bowl XLII. Should the Packers lock up home field early, will the team rest some bodies? If the 49ers keep winning, they may not have the luxury of clinching home field before the seasons final week. So, whats your take? How long will the Packers remain undefeated? As always, its Your! Call. Cheap MLB Jerseys ."
