A weekly look at what the Green Bay Packers must fix:

What was the seventh-best rushing attack in the NFL last season has been rendered ineffective through the first two weeks of this season, and reigning offensive rookie of the year Eddie Lacy has not found much running room.

The Packers rank 24th in the NFL in rushing yards (160), and nearly 18 percent of that total has come from quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The Packers rank 26th in yards per carry (3.7) and it might not get any easier to fix that this week, considering they play in Detroit against the Lions, who through Sunday's games have allowed just 57.5 yards rushing per game, the second-lowest total in the league.

In Sunday's win over the New York Jets, Lacy carried 13 times for 43 yards, but only three of those runs went outside the tackles and he broke only one tackle, according to ProFootballFocus.com.

"There was obviously a commitment to take Eddie Lacy out of the game," Packers coach Mike McCarthy said of the way the Jets defended his team.

Regardless, the Packers need to take some of the pressure off Rodgers and receiver Jordy Nelson, who is about the only consistent offensive weapon they have right now. Nothing would do that better than re-establishing the running game.
