NO matter what happens, even if we lose to NE next week. All we have to do is beat the Giants, and the Bears lose to Minny, than week 17 we beat the bears and the divison is ours.

If we don't do that, I don't think we get a WC.

I don't think so. If we both end up 10 - 6, the Bears will get it on a better division record. Hmm, no we'd both be 4 - 2. And our conference record would be better.

Thats true, because we'd both be going into that game at 9-6 (assuming we lose to the Pats and beat the Giants, and they lose to the Jets and Minny). All I know is that we need ARod back. Flynn did ok, but a few of the mistakes he committed made it very obvious why he is a backup.
Obviously not as important as ARod, but Jenkins being out played an enormous role today. He is very mobile for a big man, and he would have helped a LOT against the run today.

Green Bay: Home of the Green & Gold. And the hunter orange. And the camouflage.

Next week is meaningless more than likely. If we don't win the division, I don't think we get the WC now. So as hard as it is, use the NE game as a bye week. Sit Rodgers if there is any question, Sit Jenkins another week, rest Woody and Matthews if they are dinged up.

Them come out the last two weeks playing for our lives.

Saints got say the 5th seed locked (not officially).

We're fighting the Bucs, Eagles and/or Giants for the 6th seed.

Bucs play detroit, seatle and saints who will lay down as they'll be locked.
eagles and giants play each other.

we got patriots giants an bears.

I say, division or we get nothing.

It's amazing to think this team could go 11-5 and still miss the playoffs.

And they still haven't had a defeat by more than 4 points.

This team's record sinks to 2-13 in games decided by 4 points or fewer.

If the Packers and the Bears both win out until our week 17 game, and we beat the Bears, will we win the division or will they?

EDIT: I looked it up. In this scenario, we would both be 11-5.

Two Clubs
1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs). (we'd be tied)
2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division. (we'd lose b/c the Bears would be 7-1).
3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
5. Strength of victory.
6. Strength of schedule.
7. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed.
8. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed.
9. Best net points in common games.
10. Best net points in all games.
11. Best net touchdowns in all games.
12. Coin toss

So basically, the only way we can win the division is if the Bears lose to the Vikings.

This is pretty much moot unless we can get past the Pats and Giants. Is it time to start scouting interior offensive linemen for next season?

Then again. If philly continues to lose tonight, and the Giants lose tomorrow than all bets are off, and we don't rest anyone.

I can't say I mind resting a few of them next week. Home game, I feel different but not playing in New England. Rodgers may not have a choice.

Go Pack Go!

Zero2Cool (18h) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (20h) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire

Martha Careful (10-Feb) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : this game is over

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : This might be the kill shot here
