As I think back to the Green Bay Packers’ close (but not quite good enough) performance against the undefeated Los Angeles Rams on Sunday afternoon, I am left with one major take away: this team is going to be really good in a couple of years. Make no mistake about it, the Packers hung tough…
The Crystal Ball: What to Expect as the Packers Face Washington
Starting each Friday for the rest of the season, we will take a look at what to expect for the Green Bay Packers’ upcoming game. Injuries: As of Thursday’s practice, only Aaron Rodgers and Kevin King were non-participatory in practice.

With the fourth and final preseason game in the books, the Green Bay Packers will get their final look at their roster before having to cut it down to 53 players by Saturday afternoon.

Analysis (Taylor O’Neill): Looney is a bit of a tweener in size (6’3 and 287). He played defensive tackle at California but he’s probably more of a 5-technique defensive end or outside rusher in Mike Pettine’s defense. He’s very athletic with good footwork and quickness. He can catch a back from behind but is also…
