Can the Giants go to Titletown on this run and do the unthinkable? The question is too much, too little or not enough…

No doubt both teams will be showing up.  The Packers have home field, “Lambeau Leap”, advantage and the Giants have earned the reputation for being “On the Road Warriors”. There have been plenty of comparisons between the Giants XLII Super Bowl Champs and the Green Bay Packers XLV Super Bowl Champs.  History will be made on Lambeau Field this upcoming Sunday, Aaron Rodgers and Eli Manning will be the first Super Bowl MVP quarterbacks to start against each other in a playoff game.

The Green Bay Packers are picked to win it, but there is no denying that the Giants despite being called the underdog will be a worthy opponents and this will be a great game to watch. For the most part the teams are evenly matched.  The question comes down to, too much, too little or not enough. Victory is going to be defined by balance.

The records of progression of both team speaks volumes.  The Giants big wins in the past against the Patriots and the Broncos, have given them a reputation of being the upset. The Green Bay Packers are ranked #1 of the
 NFC divisional playoffs. The defending champs hold an impressive15-1 record.  The Packers are prepared and ready for the Super Bowl run.  The loss to Kansas City can work to the Packers advantage, only strengthening both the Packers mental and field game.

  

It is impossible to overlook one of the most disappointing games ever: an overtime loss in the 2007 NFC Championship Game. Green Bay has the opportunity to rewrite history and make it right. The Spirit in Titletown is shared unanimously, “The Green Bay Packers are ready to win the super bowl and the Packers are the best team in football in the NFL”. The city of Green Bay and the Green Bay Packers intend for the Lombardi Trophy to remain home in Green Bay, aka, Titletown. Both teams can handle the cold weather; however, the Packers are prepared not to let 2007 history repeat itself and their focus can’t go without notice.  I think the fence outside Lambeau Field says it best, “One Heart, One Mind, One Goal”.

Green Bay anticipates record breaking crowd turn out.  Many fans and spectators will be flying in on either commercial or private aircrafts. Where it stands today we are today the snow is coming down strong and the weather outlook is a cold and windy for Sunday big show down.

 

Executive Air like both the Giants and the Packers is no stranger to crowds, noise and weather. The cold weather that the “Frozen Tundra” has to offer and it’s no wonder they have over 70,000 square feet of heated hanger space and 538,000 square feet of Ramp space.  At Executive Air FBO their team is prepared with efforts covering everything from adding extra ground support staff to bringing in extra equipment to make sure we eliminate all fumbles.   Executive Air’s Boom De-Icers and experienced line crew are prepared to handle all the weather conditions.

Executive Air is led by the best in the business and is committed to providing their clients’ best in class service at a fair value.  Executive Air Fixed Based Operation (FBO) & VIP Terminal out of the Midwest.
