The Green Bay Packers are coming off a 28-7 win against the Dallas Cowboys. While it was ugly at times, they played with a winning recipe. The two headed attack of James Starks and Eddie Lacy combined for 195 yards and two TDs on the ground, averaging 5.8 yards per carry. Lacy looked like his old self while running downhill, continually breaking tackles and spinning off defenders.
The Packers passing game did improved merely, but did show signs of struggling at times. Head Coach Mike McCarthy reestablished play calling duties and it proved effective early. The Packers were able to stay on the field and dominate time of possession.
If the Packers are able to continuously play with the lead and dominate the time of possession, they should have a good shot at winning out, and quite possibly being rewarded with the number two seed and a playoff bye.
