The Green Bay Packers were a Super Bowl favorite as training camp started. In a preseason game, in Pittsburgh, Jordy Nelson tore his ACL and was lost for the year. This was a big blow, but it should not have derailed an offense that is led by MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers. 

The Packers drafted two young cornerbacks, in the NFL Draft. Dom Capers was still searching for middle linebacker and used All-Pro Clay Matthews in that role. The defense did not dominate, but kept an inept offense in a number of games. 

Minnesota ended the reign of the Packers as NFC North Champions by defeating them at Lambeau Field, in Week 17. The Packers entered the playoffs rolling the wrong way. After starting the season 6-0, they finished 10-6 and had to go on the road as a wildcard team. The Packers defeated the Washington Redskins and then faced Arizona in the Divisional round. A second hail mary kept the season alive until overtime. The defense allowed a big play, and the Cardinals scored the game winning touchdown.

With the seaon over and no Lombardi Trophy coming back to Green Bay, what changes need to be made. Evan and Troy will discuss a recent article by Bob McGinn.
