NFL Predictions Week 5: Aaron Rodgers and Packers Will Dominate Falcons Again

The Green Bay Packers dominated the Atlanta Falcons in the NFC divisional playoffs last season in the Georgia Dome, and they will do the same in their rematch in Week 5.

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is the best passer in the NFL, and will destroy the Falcons pass defense once again.

After their disappointing loss in the playoffs to the Packers, the Falcons were saying how it was their bad play and not the Packers performance for why they lost.

This won't sit well with the Packers, and this lack of respect will motivate the Packers to a big win.

The Packers don't look like a defending Super Bowl champion in that they look as hungry as a team who has never won anything. This determination and drive to be great every single week is what makes this Green Bay team special.

Several Packers players missed a lot of time last season due to injury, and they all want to be a part of a Super Bowl champion this season.

One of the players who didn't get to play in the playoffs who is determined to get back to the Super Bowl is tight end Jermichael Finley.

Finley is becoming an elite tight end, and him and Rodgers are developing a great chemistry on the field. Finley is a deep threat with his excellent speed, and a red-zone threat with his great leaping and catching ability.

Atlanta has no one to cover Finley or all-pro receiver Greg Jennings. After getting beaten so badly in the secondary by Rodgers in the playoffs last season, you would have predicted the Falcons would go after some defensive backs in free agency or the NFL draft.

Instead, they traded lots of their future for wide receiver Julio Jones. 

Without a good pass defense, or a good pass rush on the defensive line, Rodgers will pick apart the Falcons defense with ease.

Rodgers and the Packers are determined to prove they are truly a great team, one that can put behind the epic success of last season and create more great moments this year.

On Sunday night Green Bay will beat Atlanta, and improve to 5-0.
