With some defense and a whole lotta Jordan Love, the Packers beat the Chicago Bears on Sunday, 17-9, and advanced to the playoffs with a 9-8 record. First up: The Dallas Cowboys, a team coached by none other than ex-Packers coach Mike McCarthy.
Tom Silverstein, Ryan Wood and JR Radcliffe look at an impressive showing against the Bears, from the active pass rush to the flourishing rookie class to more excellence from Love and running back Aaron Jones. Have Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks surpassed Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs on the depth chart? What's up with Anders Carlson? A weird end of the first half and some unfortunate breaks, but enough to overcome. Love has surpassed what Aaron Rodgers did in his first season; could he lead the Packers to a playoff upset, too?
