Looking forward, the health of ARod will be the key factor for the team's second-half performance. Our OL is porous enough that mobility will be required.

We still have a great group of WRs and RBs that can get even better, and we're seeing a bit more production from the TEs.

Defense...who the hell knows? We can't stop or contain the run, so we're susceptible to any team with any kind of rushing attack. We can't defend the read-option, passes to the flats, or short passes that require LB coverage., Can't blitz worth a crap, either.

We do have pass rush, albeit inconsistent, and had been able to defend down the field very well until this past weekend. In short, if the defense can generate turnovers, it can work very well. If they don't...

 

I think 10-6 is still a reasonable expectation, and winning NFCN should be likewise. It wouldn't hurt to have some luck with other games falling our way, but the Packers should control their own destiny within the division. Getting a wild-card berth is a crapshoot at this point.
