The Green Bay Packers are entering their bye week with a 6-3 record. After two losses in the NFC North, they are currently in third place in the league, but they still have a chance to make the playoffs as a wild card team.
The Packers showed great potential in the first half of the season, proving that they can compete with anyone. At the same time, they were extremely self-destructive at times, ranking third in interceptions, third in dropped passes, and sixth in penalties.
Looking at the bigger picture, Green Bay has a lot of positives to look back on after the first nine games, but also a lot to improve if it hopes to become a legitimate Super Bowl contender.
Now that we have some downtime, it’s a great opportunity to look at whose stocks are rising and whose are falling in the week ahead.
