With he Packers winning and the Seahawks losing on Thanksgiving, the Packers are now one game behind the Seahawks and Vikings for the last two NFC playoffs spots.

Technically, the Vikings have a tie breakers over the Packers, but if the Packers can beat the Vikings then that's tied up.

Remaining Schedules

Packers
Chiefs (Week 13)
@ Giants
Buccaneers
@ Panthers
@ Vikings
Bears

Vikings
Bears (Week 12)
Bye week
@ Raiders
@ Bengals
Lions
Packers
@ Lions

Seahawks
@ Cowboys (week 13)
@ 49ers
Eagles
@ Titans
Steelers
@ Cardinals

I think that tough Seahawks schedule is going to give the Packers a chance, but they have to remain hot, but I certainly think it's possible the NFC North (possible with the help of a weaker schedule) might be able to get 3 teams to the playoffs.

But can the Packers remain consistently good/hot? Or did they just catch the Lions with some different things?

Also ESPN's playoff "machine" is out and if you click projections based on winning percentages, it has the #2 seed Lions hosting the #7 seed Packers, with #6 seed Vikings going to #3 seed 49ers.

https://www.espn.com/nfl/playoffs/machine

That being said, that has the 49ers losing to the Eagles, and tying the Ravens. While the Lions tie the Cowboys. So a lot depends on those games.

Also, the previously showed Vikings games against the Packers and Lions and how those come out.

My predictions
1) Eagles
2) 49ers
3) Lions
4) Saints?
5) Cowboys
6) Vikings
7) Packers

But if the Packers beat the Vikings, they might be able to get the #6 seed. But I'm thinking they mess up somewhere along the way and they're battling the Seahawks for the 7th seed.

1) Eagles bye week
2) 49ers beat whomever the 7th seed is
3) Lions in a divisional rivalry playoff game could be interesting, could be Packers or Vikings.
4) Cowboys whomever the 4th seed is

Next round depends on if Lions win or lose. But I'm thinking we see Eagles and 49ers rematch in the NFC Championship game. 49ers DL vs Eagles OL. Great matchup. And 49ers might have a healthy QB this time.

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.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

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.

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

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 (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!
