GREEN BAY – If the Green Bay Packers want to win the NFC North, to say nothing of making the playoffs, the next four games will be critical, and not easy.
The Packers face the San Francisco 49ers, the Miami Dolphins, Detroit Lions and Seattle Seahawks during the next month, all of them teams capable of upending the Packers' season. And after that come the New Orleans Saints, Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears. In short, three important NFC North division games surrounded by traps for the rest of the year.
But what's important to Packers fans isn't necessarily so to fans of some other teams.
