Packers outlook

• How do you feel the Packers’ 2014 season has gone this far?

A. Well, it started off pretty slowly, but with three straight wins (two of them over division rivals) it seems both the offense and defense are coming into their own.

Aaron Rodgers continues to amaze and has been the beacon of consistency for this team.

There are concerns, of course, but this year’s Packers edition is filled with both young and veteran players who have stepped up and made a difference.

If the defense continues its slow improvement, the sky’s the limit for this team.
