Packers: Top five performances in divisional round vs. Rams

4. Kenny Clark

Stat line: 3 tackles, 1.5 sacks

Nearly mirroring Gary’s rise has been the play of Kenny Clark. Clark always seems to play his best ball late in the season and this year has been no different. He’s been a huge factor as to why the Packers have turned their run defense around and is also applying the pressure.

Also like Gary, Clark had 1.5 sacks against the Rams.

Clark was a constant disrupter in the middle and came up big in key spots.

Offensive coordinators have to account for Clark and this game was no different as he often occupied two blockers, freeing up others to make plays.

Cam Akers still had a decent game (90 yards, 18 carries) but most of those yards were running away from Clark in the middle.

One weapon the Packers have yet to use much is playing “Snacks” Harrison alongside Clark, giving them a brick wall in the middle of the line that would be difficult to run through.

Could they be saving that for bigger opponents? Only time will tell.

But in this game, Clark was more than enough and he made sure to make his presence was felt with the person who many consider the best interior player, Aaron Donald, on the other sideline.
