Green Bay Packers are having themselves a year. They’re playing their asses off all year, and Green Bay hit their peak yesterday. It was awesome to see from the Packers. This is the pinnacle of the Packers’ season. It is the game that gets featured on the NFL Films’ Super Bowl tape as when Green Bay realized their best team in the NFC and maybe the NFL. This was such an impressive victory for the Packers. But there are a few that didn’t perform this week. Let’s talk about them here.

FIVE STARS
Aaron Rodgers – The MVP of the NFL. It is hard to believe those who believe in Patrick Mahomes use the ‘Rodgers throws short touchdowns’ as a defense. How the fuck do you think Rodgers gets there? Also, the Chiefs have a woeful red zone offense. If they were better in the red zone, Mahomes has probably five or six more touchdowns on the season. Rodgers was extremely efficient in this game with four touchdowns, four incompletions, and one interception. For the season, Rodgers’ quarterback rating is 119.4. That is absurd.

Other five stars: A.J. Dillon, Davante Adams, Snow Football at Lambeau Field, Jaire Alexander

FOUR STARS
Darnell Savage – He continues to be a star on this team. This is the player most likely to get the broadcaster treatment saying ‘You know, not enough people are talking about Darnell Savage.’ He is playing his ass off. Savage moved up to play more of that rover position which is a safety/linebacker hybrid. Savage is always lurking. He had four interceptions in his last four games, and there was a real chance for a pick-six in this one.

Other four stars: Rashan Gary, Aaron Jones, Kenny Clark

THREE STARS
Lucas Patrick – Look, he did absolutely nothing, but I want to call out that Patrick held it together in the second half. Patrick went to right guard when Rick Wagner ended up getting carted off with a knee injury. Now, the Tennessee defensive line is complete ass, but still, Patrick deserves credit for rebuilding his confidence on the fly. If Wagner is out next week, Chicago is a much bigger test.

Other three stars: Adrian Amos, Christian Kirksey

TWO STARS
Kevin King – Man, I cannot wait to not watch Kevin King next season. He just isn’t good. I was a big Kevin King truther and defended the hell out of the draft pick. But it’s a tough look to see Kevin King struggle game after game while T.J. Watt is leading the NFL in sacks and potentially the NFL Defensive Player of the Year. King is the weak link of the Packers.

ONE STAR
Special teams continue to be a disaster – New evidence shows that the guy was in fact offsides, but man, this is scary with the special teams. Every week it is something else with this unit. This week, it was a blocked kick. I’m convinced special teams is going to be the reason the Packers lose in the postseason. I hope to Lombardi that I’m wrong.
