I think this becomes a confidence game more than anything, ... I'm not worried about making a statement to anybody but ourselves.

available far game opposed shots taking targets three
As far as taking shots when they are available ? if they are available in the first preseason game, if they're available on the first play of the game ? we're going to take them. It's an opportunistic thing as opposed to a focus. We have three healthy, big targets right now, and that helps.

We've been in too many games where we have the lead and a chance to put them away and don't, especially against No. 4. It's just one game. But let's face it. This is the Packers.
