All week, people talked about the Los Angeles Rams’ defense. They were the best in the league. Packers might struggle with them. What would Aaron Rodgers do if Jalen Ramsey shut down Davante Adams? All of these things were said. While people forgot that the Packers’ offense has been on a heater, unlike many teams we’ve seen. People do not want to admit they’re the best team in football. I’ve said that to you for the last month. More people are joining that corner, but it’s still not as loud as it should be. Packers thrashed that defense and dominated the whole game. Not once was there a worry that this might result in a loss. Green Bay is two games away from bringing Lombardi home.

Players of the game: Green Bay’s three-headed rushing attack – What a game from Aaron Jones, Jamaal Williams, and A.J. Dillon. Packers showed how dangerous they can be with doing it on the ground as much as through the air. Green Bay ran a lot of shotgun which proved to be successful against this defense. Green Bay rushed for 188 yards with a 5.2 average and they scored two touchdowns (One was from Rodgers). When the Packers are running the ball like this, they’re hard to beat.

Honorable Mention: Rashan Gary – Again, so many great players could have earned these honors. But Rashan Gary was a complete nightmare for the Rams in this one. He had seven pressures, 1.5 sacks, and found his way in the backfield more often than not. Gary is having a stellar second season and proving a lot of the doubters wrong. There have been a lot of big swinging dick moments for Brian Gutekunst this year, and this is another one.

What went right for the Packers: The offense hummed beautifully – They put 30+ points against the best defense in the NFL. What more do you want from this offense? The crazy thing about it is they could have had 40+ if a few things break their way. Green Bay and Matt LaFleur are on another level right now with their offense. Green Bay continues to cook like this, it is hard to see anyone stopping them for the remainder of the year.

What went wrong for the Packers: Soft zones lead to soft plays – Green Bay did way too much soft zone. This is a constant problem for the Packers. It is not going away. They need to not give so much cushion. Jared Goff wasn’t beating you down the field. Yet Mike Pettine’s attitude of keeping everything in front leads to this shit. It is annoying and frustrating. He should adjust it slightly for Tom Brady next week, but we will see if he does.

Next up: Green Bay gets ready to play Tampa Bay in a rematch of Week 6. Brady-Rodgers for the first time in the playoffs. It will be 22 degrees and at Rodgers’ turf. Don’t be surprised if the Packers try to do similar things that the Kansas City Chiefs did against this team. They cannot turn over the ball. That’s the biggest key on Sunday. I cannot fucking wait.
