Are the Green Bay Packers the best team in the NFC?
Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams have potentially entered their final season in a Green Bay Packers uniform. The quarterback, wide receiver combo had a rough offseason and made it known that they’re walking out of the door if things don’t change. As of right now, the Packers are sitting in an excellent position to make a big playoff run.
The Packers sit in the number three spot in the NFC heading into their Thursday night matchup with the Cardinals. Green Bay joins the Buccaneers, Rams, and Cowboys as one-loss teams in the NFC. Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay will need a signature win to separate themselves from the other three teams.
That brings us back to our original question, are the Green Bay Packers the best team in the NFC? As it sits right now, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are still the defending NFC Champions. Until the Packers can dethrone Tom Brady and Buccaneers, they’re still standing behind the Bucs’ shadow.
