The packers were beating the Seahawks on the road pretty substantially, before a few miracle plays led to Seattle going to the superbowl.  While part of us may feel that this would be the outcome again, should they gain a lead against the niners, I have to say there is one key difference between the 2014 packers and the 2019 packers: Za'Darius Smith. Z is absolutely relentless. I have never witnessed a player in Green and Gold with so much heart, energy and fire on the defensive side of the ball. In 2014, Clay Matthews sat the majority of the second half because, "he was tired." The leader of the front 7 at the time took himself out of the game. That would never be a consideration for Z. This team has a chance, because the leader of the defense will not give up.</p></blockquote><p></p>
