Six teams in the NFC are 6-3, Falcons are 7-2.

Bye weeks are over for everyone.

Giants (#2) at Eagles (#7) Packers with the tiebreaker over the Eagles need them to beat the Giants.

Cheer for Seattle (#4) to win in the Superdome over the Saints (#5).

Hope the Rams at home can beat the Falcons,

Cheer for the 49'ers to beat the Buccaneers out in San Francisco.

The playoff race is on.

After the vikings the Falcons game in Atlanta is a big game.

So rather than being worried about the vikings, I'm scared of the eagles. Wow.

If I'm reading the tie breaker correctly on nfl.com I have a correction.

The Eagles are actually leading their division, which makes us seventh behind NYG and NO as both have better conference records. Within the division it goes head-to-head, division record, common games, and then conference. Philly are 2-1 in common games (Indy, Detroit, and Tennessee) whereas New York are 1-2.

Even if this were not the case I'm not sure in the multiple team tie we go ahead of Philly at the moment. The first step in tiebreaker for wildcard is to take the highest ranked team in each division involved in the tie breaker and disregard the rest. The first three team tiebreaker is NO, GB, and PHI, which goes to New Orleans as they have the best conference record.

Then the process is repeated now that New Orleans has been selected, which brings Tampa back into consideration. There is no head-to-head sweep, everyone has the same conference record, there are not 4 common games between the three teams (3 between Green Bay and Philly by my count), so it goes to strength of victory. Philly has a better strength of victory at .500 than we do at .389 and Tampa at .286. Philly would be sixth, we would be seventh, and Tampa eighth in such a case.

The Giants and Eagles have the same divisional record.
Then common games and they only have 3 Lions, Titans, and Colts(need 4 common games for that tiebreakers) When they do then the Eagles win and the Giants loss to the Colts will be significant.

Then Conference record.
Giants are 5-1 only losing to the Cowboys.
Eagles are 4-2 with loses to the Packers and Redskins.

The Giants lead the East.

Nice to see you being alert but common games does not matter until there are 4.

By the way the Packers beat the Eagles head to head which is the first tiebreaker.

The tiebreaker for common games for the division says nothing about 4 games. If you read the tiebreaker rules from nfl.com you will only see 4 games minimum as a prerequisite to consider common games as a tiebreaker for the wildcard. For the record, nfl.com lists the Eagles above the Giants in the NFC East standings.

I'm also aware of the fact we beat the Eagles. It is only the first tiebreaker in the event of a three or more team tie if one team has swept all teams involved. We have not beat New Orleans or Tampa so we do not have a sweep.

Just keep winning. Makes da Bears game very important. But then again, I don't see da Bears winning too many games from here on out.

Seahawks are in it because their division rivals are even worse.

I think keeping the details of GDP calculation straight is easier than applying the rules for NFL playoff tiebreakers.

I try to stay on top of it because it is confusing.
The NFL does not publish all their rules.
I believe the NFL is consistent with their definition of common games (a minimum of 4). Why would there be a different definition of common games within a division when division rivals have 14 common games over the course of a season?

By the way this little gem will last only a few days because the Giants play at the Eagles Head to Head this weekend.

The Packers are okay now. But you see how the loss to the Redskins really hurt them. Had Crosby made that field goal they would be #1 seed in the NFC with a better Conference record than the Falcons.

That is why I titled the thread high and tight.
Right now it is a close race.

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.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

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

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

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...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
