Sunday is not a must win for the Packers. I repeat, it is not a must win. Would it be nice to win that game in Denver against one of the most surprising teams in the NFL this year? Sure. But I would rather remain healthy and lose as opposed to winning and getting more key players banged up.  I’m sure you’re already asking, “How do you plan on doing that?” First, put Josh Jacobs on a pitch count. Ever since he banged his knee into the unforgiving cement at MetLife Stadium, he hasn’t been right. He notched 20 carries in the win over Bears at Lambeau Field. He now has four games where he’s tallied 20 carries or more. Give him 12 total touches and call it a day. Second, the Packers aren’t going anywhere in the postseason without a solid offensive line. Right tackle Zach Tom is dealing with a back injury and center Elgton Jenkins was lost for the season after he broke his lower leg. Adding to the problems, the Packers have started at least 10 different offensive line combinations. That doesn’t make for a cohesive unit. I’ve never liked Rasheed Walker at left tackle and this year he has allowed a team-high five sacks and he also leads the unit in penalties with three. As long as Tom can play on Sunday, swap Tom for Walker. You want your best blocker on your quarterback’s blind side — and that’s Tom. Third, try to incorporate the guys that haven’t had an impact on the offense lately. Rookie wideouts Matthew Golden and Savion Williams haven’t caught a ball since Week 11 at New York. Even Romeo Doubs, who has seen the lion’s share of catches early in the season, was held without a catch last week against the Bears. Obviously, don’t try and force it to them but they need to get back into the swing of the offense again and the best way to do that is by having them touch the ball to regain some confidence.  Finally, stress to Jordan Love not to do anything crazy. The Packers are 9-3-1. They have a 95 percent chance to make the playoffs and a 68 percent chance to win the division. There is no need to fight for two more yards at the risk of getting hurt. Throw the ball into the third row and live to see another day. Because without Love, any hope for a playoff run is over. I have been impressed at what I have seen from backup Malik Willis, but starting a playoff game is a big ask.  Now there will be countless people touting this as a potential Super Bowl preview. And it very well could be. The Broncos are 11-2 and are close to winning the AFC West for the first time since 2015. But the Packers play the long game. After the Packers won at Detroit on Thanksgiving, Lions fans were taunting Packers fans by saying, “You better win it all this year because you claim you don’t care about anything else.” You’re right. It’s Titletown for a reason. That doesn’t mean NFC Central or NFC North titles. It means Super Bowl titles. And sometimes for that to happen, you have to play the long game and pick your spots. The game at Denver may be juicy for the TV executives but it doesn’t mean all that much for the Packers. The game the Packers have to have is next week in Chicago.  Filed Under: Packers NewsFeaturedGreen Bay PackersCory JennerjohnCory's Corner   PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHEESEHEAD NATION WEEKLY NEWSLETTER HERE. __________________________ Cory Jennerjohn is a graduate from UW-Oshkosh and has been in sports media for over 15 years.
