Then there's Green Bay's Double-A Rod (Aaron Rodgers). There were some difficult weeks in the middle of the season but the team did not quit. They are now ready for the post-season playoffs. Rodgers is as good as quarterbacks get. The offensive line has improved and it looks like they may not be running up the penalties like they did earlier. The defense has done a good job- especially in "take-aways," batted balls, etc. The Packers have also had a great season.
But what will happen next?
Who knows! As we all know any given team can beat any other given team on any Sunday. That is just as true in the playoffs. Either of the NFC North teams could find their way into the Super Bowl.
My guess is that (sadly) Arizona will come back next week and beat the Pack and then go all the way to the Super Bowl.* Indianapolis will show their strengths and get to the Big Game, too.
But don't quote me. After all, I'm not even a good Monday Morning QB.
*Sidebar note: My pick of the Cardinals next week is based on yesterday's over-powering win by the Packers. That can often spur the loser into an extra push to get back. The Packers are HOT, but the Cardinals have revenge in mind, I'm afraid.
