In games where the snow is falling, the sideline heaters are at full blast and traction on the field is spotty, most teams over time have turned to the ground game as an efficient means of moving the ball.
Not the 2016 Green Bay Packers.
The Packers' rushing game has been flirting with stagnancy for over a year now. Starting tailback Eddie Lacy fending off reoccurring injuries (and the highly-publicized diet transition) doesn't help. The week three win against the Lions was the last time the Packers had a rusher go over 100 yards, and before that, week 14 against the visiting Cowboys - last season.
