GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The Green Bay Packers used their bye week in November to fix their defense, so what will they do during their playoff bye?

"I'm excited about some of the new wrinkles that we may move forward with and what we'll be able to do in the playoffs," Packers coach Mike McCarthy said.

That defensive coordinator Dom Capers can spend this week cooking up something new rather than fixing the old shows just how much progress his unit made since the halfway point of the season.

My only real concern with this defense is the third down defense, which hasn't been too great. We suffer for random but long periods of lack of pass rush which concerns me. The run defense has really improved. To go from last to 25th (I believe) is pretty phenomenal.
