The Packers are coming off a huge victory against their division rival, Detroit Lions. However, Week 6 will not be a division rival, it will be the Super Bowl champion Ravens. Joe Flacco may have caught a break as the Packers will be without their best defensive piece, Clay Matthews, who is expected to miss about a month with a bad thumb.
However, Aaron Rodgers will still be on the field and he provides a huge threat for the Ravens' secondary, who has been average all season long. The Packers offense ranks among the Top 5 in points scored, total yards, passing yards and yes, they finally have a running game too. With Rodgers at the helm, they are average 312 passing yards per game, which is fourth in the NFL, they are third in the league averaging 29 points per game and 453 yards per game while their running game is giving them around 141 yards on the ground, good for fifth in the game.
The Packers appear unstoppable on offense, but they have the tendency of slacking on defense, which is why Matthews' absence will be key. Their secondary will be busy as the Packers are allowing 288 aerial yards. They will have to watch out for Torrey Smtih, who has caught close to 600 yards this season. The Packers' defense should have the running game under control, but they should get ready to take some hard hits as the Ravens' backs, Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce are a handful.
The Packers will try to inch closer to the top spot in the NFC North as they are currently 2-2, occupying third place behind the Lios and first-place Chicago Bears.
