If you’re like me – a fan, a critic, a longtime follower of the Green Bay Packers – this will be a special week over at the NFL Network.

That’s because the Packers‘ phenomenal 2014 run through the regular and postseason will be highlighted this week on the network.

If you receive the signal for the network on your home television, you might want to tune in live or DVR some of the Packers programming that will be featured this week.

It will include mostly good things the team experienced this past year, as well as some episodes about historic Green Bay figures.

For so many of us who still aren’t over that Championship Game loss at Seattle and probably never will be (should we be seeking help?), 2014 was a great year. From the rock 1-2 start, to the famous suggestion from our quarterback to R-E-L-A-X, to the back-to-back 50-plus-point explosions, to the huge wins over the Patriots, Lions and Cowboys to that fateful mid-January Sunday in that Northwest city, this was a wonderful season – no matter how you slice it.

There are so many good things to remember. Eddie Lacy‘s slow start through the first quarter of the season; the explosion by wide receivers Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb; the emergence of rookie receiver Davante Adams; the golden calf injury to Aaron Rodgers; the significant improvement of the the offensive line and the defense; and, of course the MVP talk and eventual award to Aaron Rodgers.

It was a great ride that ended badly, but with hope for a better future.

Some of these things and more will be covered by the Network throughout the week … with the exception of the aforementioned NFC Championship Game … thank God.

Let’s take a look at the schedule …
