Given how the season unfolded prior to the team’s Week 14 bye, the Green Bay Packers faced four must-win games to even have a shot at making the playoffs. One down, three to go, though the Packers did not come out of the bye the way that I, and many, thought they would. The offense was a bit too inconsistent and while the defense held the Los Angeles Rams to 156 total yards, including 3.6 yards per play, the coverage allowed on the touchdown pass to tight end Tyler Higbee toward the end of the third quarter was softer than you-know-what.
