He's seen what it's like to have a great season, then kind of fall off early in the playoffs.

Do you think the concern is warranted, Teddy?

I don't think so.

I mean, they I think they got cute a little bit in the second half.

Maybe got away from running the football.

I think I'll positive to look at.

I know you didn't like the play call on the Teddy Bridgewater jumping over there, but linebacker Chris uh, Chris Barnes, rookie out of U.

C.

L.

A.

Made a great play, and that's what they need to do.

The young linebackers had to get better Kirk skis in their veteran persons.

The red zone defense was good, so the positives were there for them to make a run in the playoffs.

Red zone defense and red zone defense, causing turnovers, two fumbles, two fumble recoveries inside the five.

That's fixable.

But I think we're discounting and discrediting the job that Carolina did.

Yeah, I mean this Carolina team, that rule and company.

This is an up and coming team and I know it's easy to look at their record and say we should blow these guys out.

This is not college football.

You gotta bring it every single Sunday.

You gotta bring it every single Saturday night.

Whatever it is these days, there's games on Monday, Thursday, every these games, all days of the week.

You gotta bring it every single time in Carolina.

I think we're discrediting them by saying like Green Bay, you know, this was a bad win.

This was a good win.

Aaron Rodgers didn't have statistically.

Ah, great day.

But there's no shame in getting this win.

I think that the Green Bay Packers gonna be tough down the stretch and all these teams in the playoffs, these teams from Arizona and California and Florida and Dome teams.

They got to go to Green Bay, Wisconsin, to play games.

Very likely.

That is a huge advantage in a year where there's no home field advantage, really, with no fans, the Green Bay Packers have weather advantage against warm weather and dome teams.

A Z Aaron Rodgers might say.

Everyone could just relax a little bit.

They're gonna be fine.

Yeah, the number one seed, I think more than any other year, I think it is critical this year and I mean, they're gonna have it.

There's no question they've got to finish out the season.

They're gonna have the number one seed in the NFC.

And you're right when you're talking about their defense, man, I'm seeing this defense get better and better and better.

And when that happens, when that defense is anywhere close to their offense, watch out because of balance.

Football team offer.

Bye.

In the playoffs, we're gonna be tough.

You know, the history of Green Bay, uh, running to the Super Bowl to go through Lambeau Field.

The history shows you gotta go up there with a tough mentality and ignore the cold weather.

That's how you get to the Green Bay Packers, but something I've been talking about the Green Bay Packers all season is dim.

Having another wide receiver to go with the Vontae Adams yesterday.

42 yards by Davante Adams, 56 yard by Lazar.

We're talking about the playoffs talking about this offense for the Green Bay Packers.

I think this could be a concern for the Green Bay Packers headed forward because if you're paying a lot of attention to Davante Adams, slowing that run gang down by Erin Jones.

You're gonna need another pass catcher to step up.

I didn't see that yesterday.

Maybe that could affect them long term.

Down the road.

Yeah, that's something to keep an eye on.

Rex, I know you're saying they're going to get the number one seed, but you look at their schedule.

It is a little interesting these last two games.

They've got the Titans at home.

That's a tough weather game for Nashville team.

But then at the Bears and before you laugh, Mitchell, too risky is playing some good ball right now.

If they get a win against Minnesota today, maybe that game I know.

I knew it was coming.

Maybe that game gets more interesting as they try and hold on to that by Thanks for watching ESPN on YouTube for live streaming sports and premium content.
