Packers’ backfield could be best Aaron Rodgers has worked with
An improved ground game can make the Green Bay Packers serious Super Bowl contenders.
As long as Aaron Rodgers is healthy and under center, the Green Bay Packers offense will be explosive and difficult to stop. However, during Rodgers time as a starter, he’s rarely had a good running game to accompany his passing abilities.
The last time Green Bay had a 1,000-yard rusher was in 2014 when Eddie Lacy was in the backfield. We all remember how heart-breaking it was to watch a Super Bowl appearance slip away as it did that year. But the point of note is that the Packers were so excruciatingly close to another trip to the Super Bowl because the running game was such a big factor that season.
