We go now into Packers territory, they have done a wonderful job so far in the season, Although -yes- they have had some errors here and there and some injuries that are not letting out their full potential but there’s no denying Green Bay has a terrific squad with talent all around and obviously Aaron Rodgers has helmed this team expertly.
Having the best QB in the league is a luxury that has allowed the Packers to prevail upon their competitors without that much effort. If carried on the arm of Aaron Rodgers this team will go far.
Victims: Bears (2-3) in Chicago, Seahawks (3-3), Chiefs (2-4), 49ers (2-4) in San Francisco, Rams (3-2) and Chargers (2-4)
Keys to success:
Aaron Rodgers. It’s simple, it seems that no matter who is receiving the football he can be productive. With so many injuries to their playmakers the team is not at its maximum potential and that makes them even more impressive, as they begin to get reinforcements. They have a pass rush that has generated 23 sacks (second best in the league) and stolen eight turnovers by interception, largely a product of good QB pressure.
They have won by: 10.5 points avg.
Total offense (yards): 11
Total defense (yards): 14
Next strong opponents in order of appearance:
Still has three games away that look complicated; Denver, Carolina and Arizona.
The next two weeks we will know a on the three teams on this list, as the Packers visit the Broncos and Panthers, two defenses that would be a tremendous challenge for someone as talented as Aaron Rodgers. Towards the end of the season they will have to visit the Cardinals, a strong and complete team that can get them into trouble.
Biggest challenge:
Having health or uninjured players. This will cause the team’s attack to be more diverse and balanced. Once Eddie Lacy is fully recovered from his injury, Rodgers will have a perfect ally to seal victories in the fourth quarter with the aggressive style of the # 27.
