GREEN BAY – As an already difficult week continues to grow more challenging for the Packers, the last thing they'll be doing in Arizona on Thursday is throwing their own pity party.
No Davante Adams for Aaron Rodgers to pass to. No Allen Lazard, either. No defensive coordinator, so a coaching colleague will have to call the plays on that side of the ball.
And who knows if all the bad COVID news is done being delivered before facing the undefeated Cardinals. But the game is going to be played, and the Packers will have to be ready. That part isn't changing.
These are the times that put the emphasis on "professional" in professional football.
"That's our job," veteran receiver Randall Cobb said Tuesday of dealing with the obstacles that keep mounting before the biggest game of the season to date. "Our job is to perform at our best, and our job is to find ways to win ballgames."
Cobb and Rodgers both answered questions from the media regarding Adams' pending absence but before the latest news on Lazard was announced publicly, though both likely knew about it following the team's walk-through workout.
"Unfortunately, that's just the way this league works," Cobb continued. "It doesn't matter. When Aaron broke his collarbone a few years back, the NFL didn't stop playing. When guys go out in this league that are 'the guy,' the NFL continues to go on."
And so will the Packers, with an offensive game plan carrying plenty of volume, according to Rodgers, despite the short week and shorthanded personnel.
