If the Packers were going to have a terrible half I'm glad it was against Carolina. Keep in mind they are not as bad of a team as their record indicates. They lost by 3 to NO, 2 to KC and 1 to the Vikings. They play hard. Besides GB the only other team to hold them to 16 points was Chicago. All in all it was a win in a game GB didn't have to bring their "A" game. There's no reason the believe GB can't execute better in the upcoming games. Add to that if NO loses today GB doesn't have to beat Tenn to get the first round bye. All the have to do is beat Chicago. Rodger's teams are pretty good at doing that.

However, there is a problem with the team's seemingly feeling that they don't have to bring their A game all game. That they can 'turn it back on" when they need it. This team does not have a history of turning it back on. If fact it is just the opposite.

They have not shown an ability to seize momentum once lost. With this team, when it rains, it deluges.

And don't look at the Bears as a walkover. They will have nothing to lose and would love to knock us out of the top see. Further, they will like have Hicks back and he makes all the difference in the world on that defense.
