Strong finish at 13-3

Way to go Pack!  In a game that had nothing at stake the Packers prevailed over the hapless Lions 34-13.  Now it’s time to sit back and enjoy a week off.  However this could be a concern.

On a day when the goal was to stay healthy, the Green Bay Packers couldn’t avoid the injury bug.

Of greatest concern after Sunday’s 34-13 win over the Detroit Lions in the regular-season finale at Lambeau Field was the condition of the offensive line.Guards Jason Spitz and Junius Coston dropped out with potentially serious leg injuries, leaving their status in doubt for the Jan. 12 NFC divisional playoff game at Lambeau Field. Also injured were running back Ryan Grant (shoulder stinger) and cornerback/punt returner Will Blackmon (foot).

Of the injuries, Coston’s appeared to be the most serious. He pulled his right calf muscle in the third quarter and not only couldn’t finish the game, but had troubling walking across the field from the Packers’ bench to the tunnel after the game.

“Fortunately for us, we’ve got time,” Packers center Scott Wells said. “I don’t know how bad (the injuries) are, and hopefully, they’re just being (cautious) with those guys. Hopefully, it’s nothing, but we do have time for them to heal up and get back on the field.”

Time - thanks to that wonderful thing known as a 1st round bye.  Things like these show the importance of gaining one of the top two seeds.
