As Sunday's win over Seattle continues to fade into the rear-view mirror, the Green Bay Packers must renew their focus, as another tall task awaits them on Monday Night. This time, it's the Kansas City Chiefs coming to town, and they bring a tough defense, featuring a brutal pass rush that is sure to give the Packers' offense some trouble.
The Packers' defense, on the other hand, did a great job stopping the run last week against a premier running back. However, next week's elite back, Jamaal Charles, is more of an outside runner than Marshawn Lynch, and thus the strategy to stopping him will be quite a bit different than that used to slow Lynch down.
It's a mix of review and preview in today's curds, so click around and enjoy!
