NFL Week 9, 2019: 5 Teams on upset alert
By Dan Parzych
3. Green Bay Packers
Remember all of that negative talk back in September how Aaron Rodgers and Matt LaFleur would never be able to work together on the Green Bay Packers?
Heading into the month of November, the Packers have earned the right to be considered one of the top teams in the NFC, and as long as Rodgers continues to play on a high level, the future Hall of Famer could easily see his name in the MVP conversation when the time comes.
But before jumping too far ahead in the season, all of the focus for Green Bay at the moment is making sure they come through with a win on the road over the Los Angeles Chargers.
Despite recently coming through with a big win on the road over the Chicago Bears, the Chargers still have a lot of work to do in order to get in better position to compete for one of the playoff spots in the AFC.
However, if Los Angeles uses what took place last weekend as extra motivation for this weekend’s meeting with Green Bay, maybe the Chargers have what it takes to pull off another impressive win over a contender from the NFC North.
Knowing Rodgers, the Packers star will do whatever it takes to make sure his team continues to win these kinds of key games, but also don’t expect the Chargers to make it easy for them.
