TW/BT = 3-1 so far. We've had some amazing tier 1 QB play to go with it too. The only loss is Dallas but TW evaluates trench play, not QB (Jimmy Garoppolo 2.0) play in this exercise but I'd still give the edge to the Packers overall. They played their ass off.
You need both.
Let's see what tonight brings.

Just based on trench talent+, Eagles and Steelers should have the edge. Let's see how it pans out and how their QB's play.
It was a totally unexpected win for Green bay, in my own mind, for sure. I did not expect Dallas to be destroyed like that. Makes sense though, because McCarthy never really does have a good run game. He does token runs and is a pass happy head coach, that went into the teeth of that pretty good passing defense of the Packers. I think because of that Dallas is a bad matchup for a team like Green bay. Anyway, stoked that we play green bay without Aaron Rodgers. Love (I think) still has a way to go to be a top echelon QB. We shall see.
Green bay's OLine looked impressive in that Dallas game.
