The Green Bay Packers got a big win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday afternoon, which leaves them just a half-game out of first-place in the NFC North. With two weeks to go, the Packers have plenty of time to position themselves for the playoffs, especially considering the potential return of star quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Rodgers has been attempting to return for the past few weeks, but he has yet to be cleared. So far this week, the story is no different.

The Packers will once again game-plan for their Week 16 match up against the Pittsburgh Steelers, while they await word on the status of Rodgers injured collarbone.

If he gets cleared, there is no doubt he will start. If he needs at least one more week, the Packers will be playing a do or die game without their best player.
