Pitt at KC
Houston at NE

Seattle at Atlanta
GB at Dallas

Pittsburgh has the best shot at a road win with their running game. With Dallas essentially having two weeks off as they only played the starters a few series against Philly, GB could take advantage early on if Dallas is out of sync.

Each time Aaron Rodgers is knocked down, the defender should whisper, "Why do you have such a bad relationship with your family?" in his ear

"Yo Rodgers!! Yo Mamma said last night that I should tell you to call her, she worries about you."

Doesn't outright accuse his mother of being loose, but would make Rodgers wonder about it.

I'm at the point where I'm starting to hate pro sports teams that move. I can't think of a single time where it was justified...

Browns and Cardinals history in St Louis is fascinating. That was one case where a team had to leave or fold. But that was due to market size and not because a rich guy couldn't get poor people to pay for his stadium.

While this covers all sports, and mainly baseball, a fascinating read of folded/moved/etc teams in pro sports:

While it's known, it still bears repeating. The more often it's repeated, the cleaner the soul.

That's the thing though: No team in any of the major North American sports leagues has been in danger of folding within the last 35+ years. It's just a case of profits being $Vermont instead of $Texas. Profit is still there for the taking.

MN Twins ownership was lobbying for the team to be contracted by MLB for a while, back when the Expos were also being considered for the chopping block. It was merely a ploy to get a new stadium out of the taxpayers, and it eventually worked with the Hennepin County Board.
