What is the key for the Packers to defeat the Giants?

It's pretty simple – protect the football and don't let Saquon Barkley beat you. Oh, and get some sleep.

While Romeo Doubs' development is obviously good for the team, isn't it also a good thing for Christian Watson? He gets to come off a limited training camp/preseason without any outside pressure for him to perform. Not to say that he couldn't deal with that pressure, but it must be easier not having to, I imagine. A game will come where the defense forgets about Watson and has no answer for him. And suddenly there's another thing to worry about when facing the Packers' offense.

Thanks to Doubs' early impact, Randall Cobb's consistency and Allen Lazard's all-around capabilities, there's less external pressure on Watson to walk in the door and be WR1 on Day 1. But internally, I don't think Watson would be affected either way. He's a confident young man with lofty goals for himself. As I've stated many times before, his talent and ability are so obvious to even a novice like me. Watson is a rare breed.

How 'bout we look at it this way: the preseason is over, and we finished 3-1. Now it's time to play some real football.

It's no small feat to win three of your first four to start an NFL season. Only one team (Philadelphia) got through September unscathed.

Is it safe to assume the Giants will have the same difficulties with the overseas trip our Packers will? Will our size and speed at linebacker be enough to slow down Saquon Barkley? Are the Giants receivers a threat to our Packers secondary? Does anyone else picture "Toad in a Hole" similar to "Prairie Doggin'"?

It's not even just the trip overseas. The Giants are hurtin'. They have 14 players on their injury report right now. This is a difficult turnaround for even the healthiest NFL team. On paper, the Packers are the superior football team, but we all know this game ain't played on paper. They must impose their will Sunday.

Who is the Packers' MVP on defense?

It has to be Rashan Gary. He's been one of the best defensive players in the entire league through the first month of the season, with 19 tackles and five sacks, including his strip sack and recovery of Brian Hoyer's fumble last week. Everything is coming together for Gary…and it's terrifying.

I saw some pictures on Friday and noticed No. 45 in several pictures. I was intrigued and had to look up his name. Eric Wilson looks jacked or is just the way the pictures make him look? Reminds me of what Travis Jervey looked like in the past. Have a great day. FYI, I was formally from Platteville, WI, grew up 30 minutes away in Fennimore, WI.

I spoke with Wilson before we left on Friday. He mentioned how much he's into nutrition, sleep, hydration, etc., and I believe him. Dude is chiseled from stone. We'll see whether he plays Sunday but Wilson originally made Minnesota's roster as an undrafted free agent five years ago because of his contributions on special teams.

Please pass along a friendly message to Ian in Kirkwhelpington that there are a good few Insiders named Lori, in addition to The Lori from Brookfield. So excited to watch the game this Sunday. Would love to see a successful Hail Mary by "12" on English soil but would settle for Aaron Rodgers showing his belt after a big play to the fans on that side of the pond.

Rodgers isn't just one of the greatest players in NFL history. He's one of the league's biggest superstars. It only makes sense for a living legend, who's still at the peak of his powers, to play in London before it's all said and done. It needed to happen…and now it finally will.

David from Parkersburg, IA

I watched Rodgers' interview in London. Out of curiosity were there a lot of London reporters in attendance?

Yes, there were rumblings from NFL people the Friday news conferences for LaFleur and Rodgers were two of the most well-attended during the international series.
