Right now, the team with the best record in the NFL is the Green Bay Packers. To this point in the season, Green Bay has made their way to an 11-0 record and are currently the #1 seed in the NFC. The league hasn't had a undefeated team in the regular season since 2007 when the New England Patriots made it to the Super Bowl before losing to the New York Giants. Before that, you would have to go back to 1972 the last time a team went undefeated. Where the Miami Dolphins differed from the Pats is that they completed the task, beating the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl VII.
So, can the Green Bay Packers pull it off? To do so, they are going to have to best two division rivals, two teams fighting for their playoff lives and a division leader. One thing is undeniable, the Packers have the most prolific scoring offense in the league and it starts and stops with Aaron Rodgers. The Pack doesn't run the ball well but, to be fair, when they average 304 yards a game through the air they haven't needed to.
