If you would’ve told Packers’ fans before the season that their team would be sitting at the top of the NFC with a chance to win the No. 1 seed outright in Week 16, they gladly would’ve taken it. In the same sense, if you would’ve told them that the Packers would have seven players…
Patience could be a virtue: The case for Packers’ receiver MVS
I think it’s safe to say the Green Bay Packers’ wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling has had quite the roller coaster of a year. From opening the season against Minnesota with four catches for 96 yards and a touchdown, to five games with one catch or less, many Packers’ fans were starting to scratch their heads…
Finish: Previewing the fourth quarter of the Packers’ season
After a solid 30-16 win over the Eagles on Sunday, the Green Bay Packers are 9-3, first in the NFC North and the second seed in the NFC playoff picture.

After Sunday’s 34-31 loss to the Indianapolis Colts on the road, there’s plenty of things I could’ve chose to write about. Not all of them are positive.

Despite injuries, Packers blow through Texans
Alright, let’s be honest. The Green Bay Packers knew that the matchup in Houston against the Texans was a game they should win. Despite making the playoffs a season ago, Houston was 1-5 going into Sunday. They had cut ties with former head coach Bill O’Brien, struggled on defense and were inconsistent on offense. After…
Packers get trounced by Bucs: Is the sky falling?
In my blog post last week titled “Bye week thoughts: Four takeaways for four games,” the last takeaway I wrote down was “Don’t overreact.” Although I meant it in a positive way about how I should calm down my excitement, I’m now turning it around and telling myself not to overreact to a bad loss.…
