NFC Playoff Race: Green Bay Packers' Crucial Stretch

Let me stay in this NFC North here. How have the Packers turned this around? They blasted the Patriots, put up a 45-burger on them. How have they been able to turn it around? I believe now they're sitting at 6-3. This is one whale of division, the NFC North. Yeah, it's one of the best divisions I can remember seeing. And the Packers have turned it around. Basically, Jordan Love is playing out of his mind right now. I mean, his downfield passing capabilities are some of the best in the league. And him, Christian Watson, and Matthew Golden, that is just such an explosive trio right now. Like, no one's going to say that they're the best receiver duo in the league because Jamar Chase and Tee Higgins exist. But, man, those guys are hard to contain. I thought the Patriots would have a chance to maybe use Christian Gonzalez to wipe one of them out and make one have to beat them. Gonzalez had one of his worst games as a pro in that game. So I just think that that passing attack is making a big difference. And Jonathan Gannon's defense with the Packers has really started to come around. And I think as that continues to develop and as Micah Parsons gets closer and closer to return, we might be looking at that unit as the thing that could potentially take the Packers over the top and turn them into a Super Bowl contender. So I'm excited to see what they can do down the stretch Because they have improved so, so much from. Their week three loss to the Falcons on Thursday night football. Real quick, Cowboys struggle against the Colts. Can't be buying the Cowboys, right? No, I think they have a path to winning the NFC East, but they have not done anything to instill confidence that that will happen. So I expect that they're going to continue to just be a frustrating team to watch and Schottenheimer's seat is going to be hot, man. No question about it. The Colts were in a fire sale and they struggled against that Colts team.
