I have absolutely no problem with the Packers being overachievers. You can win championships that way. I would be concerned if they were so loaded with talent and searched out ways to lose, "creatively." That's when you start tearing your hair out.
The win, against Washington, was a good one. Nobody came away with a serious injury from what I saw. The running game seemed to be pulled together. Rodgers wasn't throwing the ball to guys in the wrong colored shirts. The Smith Bros. still had their motors. Gary looked like he might just have a future in the NFL. Pettine's defense wasn't shredded. There were moments out there, that added good teaching opportunity for the coaches. Nobody will come away cocky, because of the win.
The Bears game will be the Bears game. They always are, no matter what the record is for both teams. What I like going forward against them after this win is that the Packers shouldn't feel one bit of superiority because of it. They know they have work to do, getting ready for the Bears. Even better, they're beginning to realize that they're becoming a force in the NFC, and when that totally sinks in, not even they know how it will end.
I got a good feeling from the win. I also look at our record, and realize that we have the 3rd best winning record in the entire NFL. That's pretty darned good.
