Aaron Rodgers and the Packers look determined to secure the top seed in the NFC.
The Packers, behind a near-perfect first half from Green Bay at Lambeau Field on Saturday night, cruised past the Carolina Panthers 24-16 to grab their fourth-straight win — which keeps them in the driver’s seat to claim the lone playoff bye.
