First the team needs to score TD's not FG's. Good teams do this. Second each game the special teams need to make a play be it a TD return, a key punt, strong coverage work, blocked extra point. Third turnovers need to be created. This along with special teams can lead to short fields making it easier to get 6 than three.
A long punt return to the 20 giving the offense a short TD drive is one way these can occur. Another might be good kick coverage pinning a team deep, then a force fumble leading to another short TD.
Call that general keys, my philosophy of football etc.
1. Succeed with the run....Indys run defense is 29th, help them keep that ranking.
2. Don't let the 32nd ranked Colts running game get off on the leagues 27th ranked Run D. Further Colts top runner should miss game.
3. Both teams are +4 in turnovers but Packers have edge in takeaways so get some!
4. Depth: The Colts pay stars and fill the roster with lesser players. Hopefully a Jordy Nelson or Brandon Chillar will make a play to add to a win.
5. Will there be a Justin Harrell sighting?
