Why Green Bay Packers Will Win
The Rams got away with it.
Let’s put it this way. If Los Angeles really is hoping for John Wolford to be healthy enough to go over Jared Goff … uh oh.
Goff’s injured hand obviously isn’t right after having surgery on it just a few weeks ago, but he was still able to do just enough to get by. He only completed 9-of-19 passes for 155 yards, but he gutted it out with a big late touchdown pass, didn’t throw any picks, and was saved by Cam Akers.
The Green Bay defense isn’t the Seattle D.
The Seahawks might have improved defensively as the season went on, but it has hardly been a rock. Green Bay’s run defense is good enough – it’s not great, and it’ll get gouged for some big yards here and there, but it only gave up more than 150 yards three times.
The Rams came up with 164 yards on the ground against Seattle. It wouldn’t jut be nice if it could do that again, it has to because Goff can’t carry the attack in his condition – if it’s Goff.
Yeah, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay offense have to get off to a hot start, but the defense that hasn’t allowed more than 16 points in four of its last five games should be able to keep this close no matter what.
