Jclombardi reviews Packers’ NFL power rankings.

ESPN: 12. Rodgers is starting to show signs of his season-long beating.

FOX: 12. Now that the circus has left town, can the Packers get on with making a playoff run? Maybe, but not until they fix what’s seriously broken on the offensive line. Maybe GM Thompson intentionally got rid of Favre so he didn’t get the legend killed behind the line’s friendly fire.

NBC/PFT: 13. The Packers should have saved some of those boos for a few of the current members of the team.

AOL Fanhouse: 14. Rodgers leads the NFL in passer rating with a mark of 110.4. Of course, he’s constantly being compared to Favre, who has a far superior team due to offensive line, running game, special teams and the entire defense. But that’s not gonna matter to the masses, because the Vikings are 7-1 while the Packers are 4-3.

Yahoo: 15. They got away from the game plan, it appeared, quickly.

Sporting News: 16. Favre has beaten them twice, and pass rushers continue to beat up Aaron Rodgers.

CBS: 16. That offensive line is bad. If they don’t improve there, Rodgers doesn’t stand a chance.
