Packers who will make or break game: Aaron Rodgers

I wouldn’t say the Packers have gone on their win streak despite Rodgers, but they certainly haven’t gone on it because of him. That’s different for this franchise which has relied heavily upon its star quarterback over the last thirty years.

Rodgers still has the talent to heat up at any moment. With the defense and return units playing spectacularly, this would be a very dangerous team if the passing game could get going.

The Packers’ weapons are beginning to come together to complement Rodgers and make his job easier. They’ve figured out their running game with AJ Dillon and Aaron Jones and are utilizing the outside run game. Watson’s emergence has changed everything and given defenses someone to focus on. Rodgers has everything he needs to defeat the Lions and get Green Bay into the playoffs.
