The Packers have a bye in the last week for byes and — from a fan perspective — I love it. The team gets to rest now before taking on a tough San Francisco 49ers team in prime time. From a fantasy perspective, though, it’s not great.
This week is critical in leagues where the playoffs start in Week 14, or even 15. If you’re on the bubble, your team needs to lock up a win to make a late push and if you’re leading the pack, you don’t want to slip up now and miss out on a first round bye.
