Here's a link to Packers.com's stats:

I thought it would interesting to discuss some of the accomplishments.

For instance, Hawk was, once again, the leading tackler on the team. By far.

Jordy was our leading receiver, not suprisingly. What is  surprising is Boykin had just 10 less reception than Jones, yet had the same yards/rec average and produced the same number of TDs.

Crosby actually was better vs our opponents this year, and outperformed them on 50+ yard kicks.

118 tackles.  22nd in the NFL.  His primary competition for accumulating tackles were guys who were in and out of the line up (I know, we need to appreciate that Hawk can be mediocre every game, fulfilling half of the "available and accountable" requirement.).  Based on the contract given to Brad Jones, I question this team's ability to evaluate middle linebackers at all (side note, cutting Bishop turned out the be the absolute correct evaluation)

 

I also think that Jones will be gone next year.  I kinda hate that.  I don't think he will be much of an impact on any other team (he's and Alvin Harper of the tundra) but he makes an impact here.  Doesn't take away from the fantastic growth we've seen from Boykin (the Donald Driver of the tundra). 

Some Packers milestones achieved this year:

In his rookie season, Lacy became the 36th all-time leading rusher. Another 1027 yards would put him 13th.

Starks rose to 32nd all-time, passing the immortal mssrs. Keith Wooside, Kenneth Davis, Travis "The Roadrunner" Williams, Najeh "The Pooper" Davenport, Eric Torkelson, and Brandon Jackson, among others.

 

Crosby moved into second place in all-time scoring, passing Chris Jacke and Don Hutson. He is now 151 points behind Ryan Longwell. Incidentally, he passed Jacke for all-time 50+ yard FGs made, but I don't have the totals yet.

 

Jordy moved into 11th all-time receiving yards. James Jones moved into 12th, both of them passing Robert Brooks and Paul Coffman. Jordy is 832 yards behind Carroll Dale for 10th, and 991 behind Billy Howton (BK's favorite player?) for 9th.

 

Matt Flynn rose to 19th for all-time passing yards, supplanting Anthony Dilweg, Jerry Tagge, and some cat named Tony Canadeo.

Scott Tolzien passed a huge number of players in his single season, including Craig Nall, Doug Pederson, Rich Campbell, Clark Hinkle, and Joe Francis, rising to 29th all-time.

 

Lastly, Mike McCarthy passed Mike Holmgren for 3rd place all-time victories this year.
