The past week has been pretty interesting for NFL fans. We’ve known for a while now that the value of the Running Back position has diminished. Who remembers the 2006 NFL Draft where many experts predicted running back Reggie Bush to be the top prospect? The former Heisman Trophy winner from USC was supposed to…
Ranking the Packers Teams in the Aaron Rodgers era is definitely a topic of differing opinions among Packers fans. In this column, I’ll rank every Packers team since Rodgers became the starter in 2008 and I’ll also include the years he sustained injuries.
