Losing defensive back Al Harris hurts the Packers but Green Bay still has a shot at the playoffs.

I hear alot people are saying that the Packers losing Al Harris and Aaron Kampman for the rest of the season is going to be a huge loss, but it is really a blessing in disguise.

The similarities between the 1994 San Francisco 49ers and the 2009 Green Bay Packers are not as far-fetched as the casual observer may have thought.

After back to back losses in which they gave up 38 points per game, the Green Bay defense answered the bell against the Cowboys.

Their performance during Sunday's loss to Green Bay will be ranked as No. 37. The Cowboys produced only one score and a season-low 278 total yards, with 147 of the yards coming after Green Bay had gone ahead 17-0 in the fourth quarter.

Tony Romo and a Dallas Cowboys passing attack finally showed up in the fourth quarter.

Nick Barnett is a realist. As much as he enjoyed going hog wild after Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo on Sunday and sacking him twice, the Green Bay Packers linebacker knows the stars have to align just right for defensive coordinator Dom Capers to use a similar plan game in and game out.

Well, well, well - how 'bout them Packers! Mike McCarthy can forget about tweaking that resume.

Of the 51 players to be drafted by Thompson, safety Nick Collins is the only one to make the Pro Bowl.

After losing to one of the worst teams in the NFL last Sunday, the Packers now face one of the hottest teams in the league next Sunday.

Long before Miles Austin emerged as one of the hottest wide receivers in the National Football League, the Green Bay Packers knew about him.

Ted Thompson may have made the right move parting with Brett Favre, but hasn't exactly built a powerhouse in Green Bay.

This year's Bethune-Cookman football team could have used Willie Collins. When Collins played quarterback for the Wildcats in the mid-1970s, he could be counted on to hold on to the football.

Posted by ESPN.com's Kevin Seifert GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Let's see if Brian Robison 's special teams error for Minnesota will turn this game around.

Percy Harvin has heard a lot of different adjectives and superlatives used to describe his talent, but he thinks "electrifying" might be the most appropriate.

Here's the tale of the tape from the Packers' 38-26 loss to Minnesota on Sunday: This is why Dom Capers was reluctant to send pressure at Vikings QB Brett Favre in the teams' first meeting.

The Vikings' Adrian Peterson is arguably the best running back in football, but he has cracked the 100-yard mark just twice this season.

Vikings quarterback Brett Favre has thrown only three interceptions in seven games.
