Finally, the Green Bay Packers broke out of their skid to get back into the win column.

After four straight weeks with losses — each of which felt more hopeless than the last — the Packers finally put together a winning effort for the whole game.

The result? A 27-13 victory.

This team still has plenty of issues and a long way to go to get themselves back into the playoffs for an eighth straight season, but for at least one week Packers fans everywhere can have some relief and rejoice in knowing their team has some fight left in them.

How did they manage this showing, well after many (including myself) had written them off in terms of putting forth a competitive effort, much less winning against a decent team?
