The Packers offense is a lot better when they commit to the run and allow the passing game to open up for quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
The Packers have a two-headed monster with Eddie Lacy and James Starks and need to get them both going early to stay in this game.
Raise your hand if you shouted out “about time” when Lacy had a 30-yard run against the Redskins last week.
It seems like that’s what has been missing all year and it was great to see the old Lacy, which is what we’ll need again this week.
Committing to Lacy and Starks will allow Rodgers to find success in the passing game.
When Rodgers finds his groove, he’s almost impossible to stop. Having a balanced approach will allow Rodgers to control the game and wear down the Cardinals defense.
