Good info from Fox Sports for NFL week 3 games.

Example Packers at Colts:
Sporting News' Why To Watch: This is a matchup of two surefire Hall of Fame quarterbacks. The Colts' Peyton Manning figures to have the edge because he has the better wide receivers and is playing at home. Plus, the Packers' Brett Favre historically plays poorly in domes.
STATS Inc. Pregame Notes: These once-annual rivals have played just seven times since 1971. The all-time series is tied, 19-19-1, but the Packers have lost both games played in Indianapolis (1985 & 1997).
Green Bay is 9-3 vs. the AFC in the past three seasons.
Packer RB Ahman Green has rushed for 100+ yards in each of his last four games, and in 11 of his last 15 games overall. Green rushed for 153 yards in his only career start vs. the Colts.
<LI>Green Bay QB Brett Favre is just 12-21 lifetime in domes, including 0-1 in the RCA Dome.
The Colts are just 13-11 at home since 2001, including 3-3 vs. NFC opponents.
Indianapolis has outscored its opponents 28-0 in the fourth quarter this season.
Colts' RB Edgerrin James has eclipsed the 100-yard mark in three consecutive regular-season games, but may miss the game due to a strained hamstring. James' backup Dominic Rhodes has rushed for 100 or more yards in five of his 10 career starts at running back.
And more.
