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.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.
