I think obviously, at this point in the season (0-0), it's a little over the top to call a game a "must win".

But I do think this is a very important game. It's a tone setter for at least the early part of the season. I wouldn't fold up the tents if we lose or start printing Super Bowl tickets if we win, but you are in a big hole if you lose your home division games.

I hope the Packers do treat it as a must win.

But we beat the VIkings last year in the opener, and they won the division.

This isn't anywhere near a must win, IMO.

It's not for the Bears either, but they have a tougher road....Pittsburg next week.

I belive this division will come down to the last week of the season. Never too late for a must win. Plus I want to see Lambeau being the best homefield advantage again. 8-0 at home!

Just because everbody is at 0 - 0 doesn't mean you shouldn't feel the pressure. I would certainly hate wishing this game was a win come the last week of the season.

ANYWAY, LETS PLAY SOME FOOTBALL!!!!!!

I agree with Stuffin - this was as important a game as any that will be played during the season. The thing about "must win" games is that they only exist at all predicated upon earlier losses. So if you win the earlier games, which generally are not seen as must win, then you simply don't have must win games all season, until the playoffs. When the Pats went 16-0, I think it's safe to say that there were no must win games on their schedule.

All games are must win, in the sense that every loss means subsequent games are more 'must win'. Furthermore, with a team like the Packers, it's arguable that the early games are must win games because of their psychological value - you know, nothing breeds winning more than winning.

Mainly, though, home games are important and, especially, division games are important. Pardon me for stating the obvious.

IMO divisional games are all must win.
