GREEN BAY – The first drive didn’t win the game, but it got the Packers off to the start they needed. The Seahawks won the coin toss in Sunday’s NFC Divisional playoff and deferred their choice to the second half, which put the Packers’ offense on the field first. All QB Aaron Rodgers and...

GREEN BAY – The Packers and Seahawks meet in the postseason for the fourth time, with a berth in the NFC Championship Game on the line. Here are five things to watch: 1. Changing a trend: The Seahawks’ defense recorded just 28 sacks in 16 regular-season games, less than two per contest. But...

Harry from Green Bay, WI Insiders, 700 shovelers needed Sunday at Lambeau Field. Have either of you ever taken in the experience to shovel snow at the tundra? I did once back in 2009. It was quite the experience. For whatever reasons, however, they had me carry salt up and down the stairs...

GREEN BAY – This one’s bound to end up on a wall. The other two games Packers fans love to remember already are, and the one they’d care to forget is, too, some 2,000 miles away. To explain: In the hallway outside the Packers’ locker room, which the players walk down to get to the tunnel...

“I think every guy has a story to tell in here,” Bulaga said. “I think every guy has a different personality, has gone through different things.

(on Metcalf’s size) You might say hey listen, we want to get up on a guy and kind of mute their speed at the line of scrimmage and get our hands on him, but when they’re that big and strong that can work against you, because you can get overwhelmed physically. I think we have to mix up the...

GREEN BAY – Aaron Jones summed up the value of the playoff bye in three words. “You get fresh,” the Packers’ star running back said Thursday. Jones hasn’t been on the injury report or anything, but avoiding a couple dozen hits he was sure to take in a wild-card opener was welcome. Running...

Paul from West Allis, WI Will the Pack be taken more seriously with each win or not unless they reach the end game? Aaron Rodgers recently said he wouldn’t mind winning ugly all the way to the Super Bowl. I also don’t think this team will mind if people kept doubting it all the way to the...
