A win in Atlanta versus a solid Falcons team would certainly have helped the Packers argument that they are a serious contender for a wildcard playoff spot. A loss, well, it didn’t help their case much.
The Packers are now sitting at 4-3 and second place in the NFC North, behind a Vikings team that isn’t looking to slow down anytime soon. While the Packers are surely not out of the playoff race just yet (there’s still a lot of season left) the big question is, can Green Bay stay healthy enough to realistically perform to playoff standards?
