We Green Bay Packer fans have spent a lot of time this season trying to figure out if our team is “a legitimate Super Bowl contender”. The good news? They are. The bad news? So is just about everybody else.
Halfway into the season, 17 of the 32 teams have at least five wins, and winning records. Look around the league. See any great teams? Nope. There are lots of good teams. Or, at least, they can be good on a given day. Even the teams with losing records are pretty good. How else to explain the Packers losing to the Browns?
