Yeah, punish them for being 10-2. Good logic there. They're young, beat up, and coming off three physical games, two in tough road venues, in 11 days. Just grind them into nubs so they don't finish strong. Heaven forbid the folks in charge see the forest through the trees.

You can actually go even farther back. Prior to the Dallas game the Packers had played 5 games in 24 days, or in other words once in less than every 5 days with 3 of the 5 on the road. No other team in the NFL will do that this season. It's no wonder the injuries started to pile up during the Detroit game. Then throw in the Dallas game and it's 6 in 31 days with 4 of 6 on the road. Anybody that said the Packers have an easy schedule didn't take that stretch into consideration, they were only looking at the teams the Packers play. They need the time off, they desreve the time off.

Because of the nine-day layoff between games, McCarthy said coaches would treat the week like a bye, including a self-scouting period Tuesday. Players were off Friday and won't practice until Tuesday afternoon.

Yeah they played sooooooo good they deserve the extra time off.

Sherman would have them in pads all 7 days.
