After an ultra-impressive dismantling of the Minnesota Vikings, the newfound complementary football drives Packers forward on their improbable ride towards the playoffs. After nearly a full season of disconnect and the various parts of the team not playing in sync, Packers fans finally got to see what their team is made of. It’s a team…
