4. Packers @ Seahawks: Week 11

The Seattle Seahawks are another NFC powerhouse that always seems to have at least one game with the Packers every year. Unlike the Falcons, Green Bay has had Seattle’s number recently. The last three matchups have gone in the favor of the Packers.

The last time the Packers played in Seattle was the infamous NFC Championship Game that saw the epic collapse by the Green and Gold. Guess where the game is this year?

Playing in Seattle has been a struggle for the Packers. Since the inception of the Seahawks franchise, the Packers have won in Seattle twice. The last time Green Bay won a game there was 2008.

In 2012 we saw the infamous “Fail Mary” game. In 2014 the Packers were blown out in the season opener, and it was followed by the aforementioned NFC Championship game collapse.

The Seahawks aren’t as good as they have been in the past, however. Three members of the “Legion of Boom” have left Seattle recently. Richard Sherman and Jeremy Lane are gone.

The Seahawks aren’t the same team they were in that NFC Championship Game. The Packers have a much better chance to win in Seattle compared to in years past. But the challenge will still be there.
