As the Green Bay Packers sit atop the NFC North, the entire NFC and the entire NFL through 8 games with a 7-1 record, they are just about at the half way point through the season. In the past, they’d have exactly half their games played, with 8 more games to go. However, with the new 17 game season, the Packers still have 9 contests remaining, as they head into their 10 day “mini bye week”.
After Green Bay’s thrilling victory in the desert of Arizona on Thursday night, they get some time to recuperate and hopefully get some key players back in the fold when they head to Kansas City to battle the Chiefs on November 7th.
