4. Green Bay Packers (4-2) Last week: 6

The Packers like who they have become and they should. Eddie Lacy leads the NFL in rushing over the last three weeks and the Packers rank fifth in rushing. The potential season-ending spinal injury to Jermichael Finley creates another vacancy of playmakers for the Packers, but their “Next Man Up” approach hasn’t caused them to miss a beat. With the potential return of James Jones, Casey Hayward, Jarrett Bush, and James Starks to the team this Sunday Night expect Green Bay to take Minnesota to the whooping shed in primetime fashion.
