How To Solve the Giants D-Line?

Pound it into submission.

The Giants biggest strength is their defensive line. That line is a big reason the Giants led the league in sacks this season. You can bet McCarthy and his staff are working on more of the power game they unveiled last week against Seattle. The best thing the Packers can do is let guys like Colledge and Spitz beat on guys like Justin Tuck and Osi Umenyiora from the first snap. Let them dictate the game. Line up Hall and Kuhn and blast them into the line. Like a prizefighter, softening up the body with jabs. Then, send the roundhouse that is Favre to Jennings. Favre to Driver. Favre to Lee. It will all be there for the taking. The Packers just need to establish the line early, especially if Wells is less than 100%, as is being reported today.  If he can't go, it would be a nightmare scenario for the Packers, having Spitz play center and having Moll start at right guard. Then it would be doubly important to pound the football so that Moll and Spitz can get up to game speed without the threat of getting Favre killed.

Either way, look for the Packers to continue the power game they started last week. It's their best bet for handling the excellent line presented by the Giants.
