It will be interesting to see which teams remain undefeated. Two teams from the NFC North and three teams from the AFC East (two of which have a game against each other)


List of undefeated (and who they play next)

NFC
Packers (Bears)
Lions (Vikings)
Redskins (Cowboys)

AFC
Patriots (Bills)
Bills (Pats)
Jets (Raiders)
Texans (Saints)


Packers vs. Bears is gonna be a battle.

Patriots vs. Bill is a battle of two undefeated, it will be interesting if the Bills can get things rolling along. It'd be nice to see Bills winning again after losing for so long.

Thanks Chiefs for getting blown out by the Lions.

But I guess Lions Defensive Coordinator, Gunther Cunningham worked for the Chiefs a long time and the Chiefs accused him of tampering with one of their players while he was with the Lions. Which clearly ticked off the Lions and they used to to rally and send a message.

Also someone pointed out that the Packers seem to lack that attitude to go full speed all the time and go for the dagger to put the team away and keep going hard, and the Lions seem to have it. That might be a problem late in the season.

Is this pure speculation or is there some sort of database that you use for this? I'm hoping it's the latter, but then again why are we a wildcard team when we are one of the three teams in the NFC that are yet undefeated? Only 3 teams after two weeks. Wow.

1) It is the application of the NFL's tie breaking proceedures. There may be 3 undefeated teams but the NFL always has a way of breaking the tie (even if it is a coin flip).

2) If you apply the tiebreaking proccedures with the currently undefeated Lions, the Lions prevail based on their points scored and points allowed rankings (note last week's blowout win against the Chiefs).

3) Every week I update the scores and touchdowns scored in each game to keep the data current. As long as I am doing that; I create this weekly thread for the entertainment of board members.

4) During the first few weeks of the season things change rapidly and this thread has little value the following Tuesday. Much depends on scheduling (The Lions still have to play the Saints and the Packers have yet to play the Chiefs).

5) This doesn't get serious until about midseason. What this does is give you a little bit different perspective on where teams are instead of power rankings. I'm not suggesting the Packers are going to the 49'ers for a wild card playoff game anytime soon. But if you were a 49'er or Saints fan it could cheer you up being 1-1. As a Packers fan it may keep you a little more grounded in reality.

6) The truth can hurt, cheer you up, or just be funny. Much of humor is a different perspective with some truth to it.

Have some humor when you look at this weekly thread and take it with a grain of salt. For example the Bills are 2-0 and just won against the Raiders(1-1) last week yet if the playoffs were held this week the Raiders would host the Bills. Look for the fun in it for awhile.

Mucky Tundra (31-May) : that was from the 29th but I've seen other combs (including Rhyan@C)
Mucky Tundra (31-May) : @ByRyanWood Without Elgton Jenkins and Zach Tom, #Packers starting OL: Rasheed Walker, Jordan Morgan, Josh Myers, Sean Rhyan, Andre Dillard.
Martha Careful (31-May) : I have never seen an OTA, but who is lining up at LT and RG with starters? or is it all individual drills?
Zero2Cool (30-May) : Bears are the first team to be selected for Hard Knocks
dfosterf (29-May) : Andy Herman and his Pack a day podcast put up GB strengths yesterday. This morning he did weaknesses. They are both very good.
Zero2Cool (25-May) : Yes.
beast (24-May) : Does he say what it is?
Zero2Cool (22-May) : Christian Watson believes he has discovered the root cause his soft-tissue leg injuries
Zero2Cool (22-May) : Savage played last half of season with tear in rotator cuff
Zero2Cool (22-May) : SISSIES!!!!
Mucky Tundra (22-May) : Sounds like both Kraft and Tom were injuried before OTAs began
buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Not serious but waiting for strength and conditioning coach referwnces.
buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Tom and Kraft both injured(pectoral muscle),
Zero2Cool (20-May) : I feel similar about person and product/service.
beast (17-May) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player
Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity
Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.
CanPackFan (16-May) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.
Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol
Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.
buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4
Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills
Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,
Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line
Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st
Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm
Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.
beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.
beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...
