The organization made sweeping changes this offseason to the defensive philosophy and instituted a number of new measures to help curtail the rash of injuries that have affected them in recent years.

All of those efforts culminate this Sunday when Green Bay hosts the Dallas Cowboys at Lambeau Field with a trip to the NFC championship on the line. It’s the first time in NFL history a team with an 8-0 home record will be squaring off against a squad that’s 8-0 on the road.

Twenty players on the active roster remain from the 2010 Super Bowl team. The rest, including 13-year veteran Julius Peppers, are trying to nab their own piece of history. Those who have been here for the recent departures from the playoffs are also seeking their own bit of redemption.

“It’s a different team, every year is different,” Rodgers said Wednesday. “This group seems to be a little hungrier. We’re a few years now removed from the Super Bowl and there’s a lot of guys who weren’t a part of that run who are big contributors for us. It’s fun to see those guys and their hunger to get there.
