Packers' Black Friday shopping list includes green hoodies for WRs

Green hoodie magic for all the receivers: Receiver James Jones wore a hooded sweatshirt under his No. 89 jersey during last Sunday's win over the Minnesota Vikings and snapped out of a mini slump with six catches for 109 yards and a touchdown. In the game before that, he failed to catch a single pass. Maybe it was just to stay warm or perhaps there's some mojo in those hoodies. Either way, Randall Cobb and Davante Adams wore hoodies during practice Tuesday.

Reading glasses: Aaron Rodgers told reporters after last Sunday's win over the Vikings that, "I think sometimes we play a little better when we start to get questioned by you guys." Certainly, the stories in the media weren't kind to the Packers after their three-game losing streak. So perhaps Rodgers and his teammates should keep reading the criticism. It seemed to work leading up to the game against the Vikings.

NFL Films 2013 and 2014 highlight DVDs for Eddie Lacy: The third-year running back barely resembles the guy who rushed for 1,100 yards in each of his first two NFL seasons. It took him until Week 11 to post his first 100-yard rushing game of the season. Perhaps reviewing some old footage will help Lacy regain his form.
