Bye week gives the Packers some time to get ready for the stretch run and the pursuit of a third straight N-F-C North title.
Four games are left in the season.
Head coach Matt LaFleur still has some ambitious goals.
Although he’s 3-for-3 in division titles, the next step would seem to be leading the Packers to their first Super Bowl win since February 6th, 2011, against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The uncertainty about just how long 38-year-old quarterback Aaron Rodgers will remain in Green Bay adds to the sense of urgency.
The team is 35-and-9 under LaFleur’s leadership.
