Rock...are you stuck on the idea that Seattle may lose at Arizona on SNF? Pinning your hopes on that? I'm sorry but HFA is gone...out the window. It would take the miracle of miracles for us to have it throughout.

I would argue the Packers haven't played good football...tell me, again, who have they beaten of any renown this year? Oh, New England,..right.

If you hadn't told us you were a Packers fan I would have sworn you were just trolling Packers fan sites. You seem to enjoy Packers losses too much to be much of a Packers fan.

Oh, and despite the poor performance Sunday, C-O-N-T-E-N-D-E-R-S still.

We beat the best team in the AFC in our house. We're 3-4 on the road this year. Guess where we'll have to play the NFC Championship game? ON THE ROAD. So, I'm NOT happy about that...I'm pissed this team squandered a real opportunity to do something this year. Now, it's going to be more of the same just like I thought when season started. Wouldn't surprise me to see this team lose their first playoff game. Need to see who it'll be against. We may get lucky and get the NFCS representative or Arizona. We'll probably get Dallas who should be the 3 seed...could be a matchup of two teams with undefeated records. Dallas undefeated on the road and us at home. Dez Bryant and DeMarco Murray along with Witten. An offensive shootout coming if that's the case.

You just don't realize how big of a loss that was yesterday. Spin it. That is what most fans will do...spin bad things into good things. I don't do that and you don't like it. You would prefer I'm on the happy train with you and most other Packers fans. I don't have a ticket to ride and I don't want one.

I'm as discouraged by Sunday as anyone, I really am. I even said in another thread how the Packers seem to have developed a pattern of losing to teams with stout front fours and it doesn't look so great looking ahead at potential opponents...that said, the coaches and players have to figure out how to correct mistakes and move on which is different from spinning. We as fans might as well do the same.

Buffalo did not control that game. I'm reminded of the Casey Stengel quote... most ball games are lost, not won. That is absolutely it. Buffalo didn't win...we lost. Our passing offense really lost yesterday. Again, I ask...why? What makes a superstar play like that when the defense wasn't dictating anything?

I am wondering if I missed something, where did we clinch a playoff spot? You do realize we beat Tampa and lose to Detroit and the Eagles win both and the Cowboys lose to Indy and beat Washington, we would be watching the playoffs from the couch.

So our playoffs are still alive but far from guaranteed.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

The Packers finish 11-5, the above scenario is the only one where they will be eliminated.

Not spinning it. I know it cost us home field through the playoffs. But you know what? We've won on the road as well as lost. And it is possible to beat teams in re-matches in their stadium even though you've been blown out earlier (just look at Dallas beating Philly in Philly, just two weeks after getting blown out on Thanksgiving).

So, our odds of making the SB went down, but we're not out of it.

You're the one spinning things--to fit your preconceived notion..."Just Like I thought when season started--the Packers aren't very good."

Zero2Cool (14m) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (14m) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (29m) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (31m) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (32m) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (32m) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (32m) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (36m) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (37m) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (37m) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (38m) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (39m) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (42m) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (45m) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (47m) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (48m) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (57m) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (1h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (1h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (1h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (1h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (1h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us

packerfanoutwest (1h) : falcons are already ahead of us

beast (1h) : Packers will get in

beast (1h) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen

packerfanoutwest (1h) : they still are in the playoffs

packerfanoutwest (1h) : If Packers lose the remaining games,,,,at 10-7

Zero2Cool (3h) : We can say it. We don't play.

Mucky Tundra (4h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints

Mucky Tundra (4h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.

buckeyepackfan (5h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan

beast (14h) : Too bad Seahawks couldn't beat Vikings

bboystyle (14h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Or ties, but let's be real here

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

buckeyepackfan (18h) : Am I wring in saying if Tge Vikings beat The Seahawks, The Packers clinch?

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : Agreed; you stinks

Zero2Cool (21-Dec) : I'm not beating anyone. I stinks.

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.
