MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Sure, the Green Bay Packers haven’t picked up many style points in this first season under coach Matt LaFleur.
They’ve been outscored in the second and fourth quarters. Only four of their 11 wins have come by more than one score. Their team rankings in rushing and passing yardage on both offense and defense are all in the bottom half of the league.
Here they are, though, needing only one victory over their final two games to take the division title. What’s more, a first-round bye for the playoffs remains well within reach.
