Of course Green Bay would much rather be 5-3 right now than 4-4, but regardless of the outcome last Sunday in Tampa, the Packers have to forget it as they enter a crucial stretch to their 2009 season.
With two home games coming up against NFC playoff contenders Dallas and San Francisco, followed by a Thanksgiving contest at division rival Detroit, the Packers play three games in a span of 12 days that will take this .500 team one of three ways.
--The Packers could quiet some doubters and establish themselves as bona-fide playoff material in the NFC.
--They could fall hopelessly out of the race and begin playing out the string.
--Or they could continue their inconsistent, up-and-down ways and still be hoping to get their act completely together while putting part of their playoff fate in the hands of others.
Naturally, the latter two scenarios are the least desirable but in order to avoid them, the Packers know they must start playing up to..
