++++We swept the NFC North this season and next season looks as if we may do that, again. IMO, It's key in getting to the playoffs. We found ways to win most of the ugly games. We will have a lot of our core players coming back. Other teams in our division will look a lot different, next season, due to poor cap management,personality issues and just bad signings. We stayed healthy, as a team, all season long. I think the players appreciated MLF's approach to practices. We played like a team, most games. It seemed there was genuine support and camaraderie between the players. Individually, Goodson had his best game as a Packer, last night. Adams, Graham, Lazard, GMO and Kumerow all caught passes to move the chains. Aaron Jones ran well but was only able to muster just under 60 yards running the ball.
----Aaron Rodgers needs to do some thinking this off season. His passing was, mostly, not good, last night. Yes, he hit Adams deep and Jimmy G with the deep ball but everyone else had to catch passes that were behind them or at their feet. The 2 point conversion pass had Adams turn completely around just to miss the catch. Aaron, once again, held the ball too long while receivers were open under the coverage. He seems to always look for the play 30-40 yards downfield instead of looking for an open player 5 -10 yards out. Take what the defense gives you! Linsley's muff on that snap, cost us. Our defensive woes, at stopping the run, showed up big time, last night. Pettine needs to figure out a way to reverse that. If it means getting better run stopping players, a better defensive game plan or a new DC, it has to get done. The Draft and FA, this year, will be very interesting to see. Also, No Wayne and Larry on the radio for this game, forcing me to listen to Buck and Aikman call the game.
