So here we have a long article that does nothing but gush with praise for the Packers, and everyone is bitching about the one line about them sneaking into the playoffs. Get over it, folks.

Here are some other quotes from the article:

(Oh, nevermind, I started to cut and paste a bunch of quotes together, but I soon realized that the entire article is nothing but praise for the Packers and how much they deserved this championship.)

Sorry to spoil everyone's fun by pointing this out. You can all go back to bitching and moaning now. Maybe we can devote an entire thread to the definition of the phrase "snuck into the playoffs." I'm sure that would be fascinating. When does the season start?

My opinion is we were as close to a 2nd seed as not making it.

Chicago did sneak in. That Johnson catch was the difference between them in the playoffs or out.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

6th seed and had to win in week 17. Yes we snuck in. On the other hand, we lost some close games while trying to figure out how to win while missing a bunch of regular starters.

We snuck in. We won just enough and the right games, but also the DeSean Jackson KR. To me, that seems like we narrowly made the playoffs, or in other words, snuck in. It is what we did once we were in the playoffs that nobody can argue.

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

Snuck in or not, we qualified according to the rules, and that's all that matters. The NFL season has so few games that you're always going to have to use a bunch of tiebreakers.

We underperformed, as always. We lost games we shouldn't have through ridiculous self destruction. We also lost 10 players that were either starters or major contributors.
HOWEVER, we controlled our own destiny.
As always, MM's teams have to get right down to the edge of elimination, before they suddenly turn things around and salvage the season. But the fact is, we won out.

If Mason Crosby had made the game winning FG in regulation against the Redskins, they would have been the #2 seed.

With the parity in the league a plays determine a game, a few plays change playoff position.

The Packers did not sneak. They won opening and publicly.

Don't listen to ignorant fools. Was it a jealous vikling scumbag that said the Packers snuck in?

packerfanoutwest (4h) : 49ers are underdogs at Packers, ending streak of 36 straight games as favorites

Zero2Cool (11h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?

packerfanoutwest (22-Nov) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break
