Green Bay — Corey Linsley knows a thing or two about perfect starts — and finishes — for that matter.
Linsley was a junior at Ohio State in 2012 when the Buckeyes went 12-0 in Urban Meyer's first year on the job. Those Buckeyes weren't eligible for the postseason, though, due to NCAA infractions.
James Jones, John Kuhn and 14 other Green Bay Packers were part of the 2011 team that began the season 13-0. That group learned the hard way that fast starts mean little if you don't close strong, as well.
So as the Packers headed to their bye week with a perfect 6-0 record, they did so with a bevy of emotions.
