NFL power rankings: Week 14 hump day edition

49. <p>Green Bay won for just the second time in six games, but it can’t be feeling very good about the way it is playing. The Packers needed an untimed down and a Hail Mary to beat the Detroit Lions, who were on the verge of sweeping them for the first time since 1991. Green Bay needs to figure out how to get receivers open and on many occasions, how to block somebody. The Packers are back in first place of the NFC North but there remains little to celebrate about a team that went from Super Bowl contender to afterthought at the present moment.</p> <p>The biggest question entering Week 14 is whether last week’s win was a turning point or more of a bait and switch (like the Vikings win a few weeks earlier). The football gods gifted Green Bay a prayer. Time to capitalize, else that magical moment means bupkis.</p>. (8-4). Previous: . Green Bay Packers. 9. team
