I think it will be more interesting after next week as we'll have the same amount of games as more of the NFL. As most teams have had their bye weeks and the Packers are only a half a win over a couple of teams including the Bears.

If they beat the Vikings next week then they'll be ahead in the division again. Of course we face the Vikings next and it will be nice if they think they're out of the division race then and the Bears have a hard schedule left.

One interesting thing about the Playoff Positions is the NFC West. No one is out of it there. You have:

Record Team (next two games)
4-4 Rams (@49ers, Falcons)
4-4 Seahawks (@Cardinals, @Saints)
3-5 Cardinals (Seahawks, @Chiefs)
2-6 49ers (Rams, Buccaneers)

Here's the scenario:
Rams lose to the 49ers and Falcons,
Seahawks lose to the Cardinals and Saints
Cardinals beat Seahawks and lose to Chiefs
49ers beat both the Rams and Buccaneers

This is how the division would look after that:

4-6 Rams
4-6 Seahawks
4-6 Cardinals
4-6 49ers

I saw this looking at the schedules and standings yesterday and thought it was funny.

Another interesting note about the future schedule--the Cowboys schedule for the last half of the season looks just as hard as the first half:

1st half (combined record of 37-28): @Redskins, Bears, @Texans, Titans, @Vikings, Giants, Jaguars, Packers
2nd half (combined record of 36-29): @Giants, Lions, Saints, @Colts, Eagles, Redskins, @Cardinals, Eagles

Now that's a tough schedule. There's only two teams currently with losing records on their schedule.

mia ...... mn
PHI ...... atl
det ...... SF
NE ...... det
mn ...... ne
NYJ ...... NYG

We both play @Vikings and @Detroit and each team plays the Patriots (Bears get them at home though). The difference in schedule then is:

Bears: Minnesota, @Miami, Philadelphia, Jets
Packers: @Atlanta, 49ers, Giants

All tough teams but I'd take the Packers 😉

I don't think any of those games are gimmes for the Bears. Hell, the only game I'd favor them in is versus the Vikings at home and possibly the Lions, but that all depends on the health of Stafford.

Who would have thought, when this season started, that at mid-season the Rams would be sitting at #4 in the NFC? That is truly mind boggling. Kudos to the Rams' management for a startling turnaround.

Surely the Packers have the most backups and undrafted free agents staring of any #3 team in recent memory.

I'll give kudos for the turn around but they're mostly in 4th because their division sucks, and the division leaders get the top 4 spots. If it was done solely by record they would be in 8th out the 16 NFC teams. That's in the bottom half still...

That being said some of their game scores look good.

WAS 16 @ STL 30
SEA 3 @ STL 20
SD 17 @ STL 20
STL 17 @ TB 18

They beat the Redskins which the Packers failed to do, and one point lose to TB which has done well this year. ( heck the whole NFCS has been doing well other than the Panthers... maybe it's because they're playing the Panthers and the NFCW )

Alrighty then. We got our work cut out for us.

I want top seed. We're not too far from it.
