It's definitely playoff football. One and done for the Packers. Not so much for the Vikings, but the Packers can't afford to fall behind the likes of Carolina (6-5), Seattle (6-5), Washington (6-5) and Dallas (6-5). Another loss would make it next to impossible to overcome the odds.

That's been a consistent theme. It's not my take. There are things McCarthy should be doing - giving Aaron Jones the darn ball -- but in games against the Rams and Seahawks I thought he had great game plans and it didn't matter. Rodgers has to take some of the blame.

I think they're a team in transition. They're not as good as they'll probably be next year. Their receiving corps is young, their guard play has been subpar, their defense is being rebuilt under a new coordinator, they need an outside pass rusher and they are unsettled at safety.

As I said, the talent has been a factor. People forget they're in transition on offense. They aren't Jordy Nelson, Davante Adams and Randall Cobb-strong anymore. Adams is all they have left plus some promising rookies. Graham hasn't been what they hoped he would be. And Rodgers is not having a good season despite what the national pundits say.
