When fans think back to that magical '09 season they often don't recall how low we all were going into that Green Bay game.
In '08 we only won 4 games (after starting 1-11-1). Opening day of '09 we lost at home on one of the most bizarre bad luck plays in Bengal history (and that is saying a lot). Even the most positive fans felt that '09 was destined to be another long painful losing season.
We had a lot of big wins that season, and you could argue that the division wins were "bigger". But based on the timing that road win at Green Bay was as important as any of them. If we don't win that game in week 2 the whole season might have slipped away.
BTW this should have been my first post in this thread instead of taking a shot at some other members.
