A roundup of what's happening on the Green Bay Packers beat.

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Eddie Lacy needs just 60 more rushing yards to reach 1,000 for the second time in as many NFL seasons.

He needs only two catches to reach 40 in a season for the first time in his two-year career.

If he gets to both, he'll join some elite company in Packers' history.

Dating to 1949, when Tony Canadeo became the first Packers' player to rush for 1,000 yards in a season, only three running backs in team history have rushed for at least 1,000 yards and caught 40 passes in the same season.

Eddie Lacy is the only guy on this team who shoes up and goes full tilt for 60 minutes, every week. Dude wants to win, and he's NOT a finesse player.

Lacy is an immense talent, it's too bad the Packers don't use him more.
He was tearing up Buffalo and yet he only got 15 carries.
That was a head scratcher.

Same thing for our rookie 5th round C, dude comes to play every game. How about some credit to someone like Guion on defense. Dude was awful the first 4 weeks and it seems like no one can let that go and admit that since then he's been pretty good. Guy doesn't lack for effort that's for sure, same thing for Daniels.

So many forget about the linemen, great job remembering them!

Today could be a big day for Lacy if McCarthy will only turn him loose.
Come on Mike, Eddie needs 25+ carries today.

I'm just glad we don't have to discuss the mediocrity that was Ryan Grant any more.
