That says it all right there.



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."

Agreed. It does say it all. I knew this team wasn't capable of beating Seattle or SF especially at their place. We get a year where SF is out of it, and Seattle struggles early so much so it erases our loss there in Week 1 as far as HFA and we go to Buffalo and cede that control right back to Seattle. That is LOSING my friend. It is spin to say otherwise. Who have we beaten on the road this year or any recent year? Who? NOBODY. So, all of a sudden we're going into Seattle where we got it handed to us and we're going to win in that environment with the SB on the line? Wow.

Nope, we're not out of it...same exact thing a rah rah Carolina Panthers fan is saying right now. We aren't out of it...still a chance. We're down to ...we're not out of it? LOL. Not out of it nominally speaking.

BTW, the Philly Dallas example is poor. Dallas didn't get drilled in Philly and then have to go back. Nor is Philadelphia anywhere near Seattle as a football team or defense or place to play.

Please, be sure to hammer me in abstentia or if I'm here WHEN we beat Seattle on the road. You know that is not happening so why would you even fantasize about it. It's like what a Bears fan does before Cutler and the Bears come to Lambeau Field... they know deep down Bears ain't got a shot but they're fans so they get all rah rah because that's what a "good fan" does. Bears get blown out...lather, rinse, repeat year after year.

Not out of it. Classic. That's what we're down to after that devastating loss. No, it's over...you just can't accept it yet.

I doubt anyone on here will deny that their chances of going to the SB were diminished Sunday or that going to Seattle is preferred.

With that said, I have a question that I'd really like to get your response to. Since the Packers fate is already determined, are you going to watch another minute this season, and if so, why the hell bother?

Oh, and I don't want to see a trainwreck....I want to see SB winning seasons so Vikings are definitely out. Raiders might be in play when Harbaugh takes'em over.

It is harder to watch knowing we extended the two guys I believe are reasons we won't win another ring.

That's only if The Eagles finish 11-5, along with The Cowboys and The Eagles win the division.

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

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

Would love to see a scenario unfold that would see Philly as division champs and Dallas as 6 seed. A Dallas WC weekend win would send them to Seattle where they've already won.

The end game would be the hope that Green Bay would host Dallas for the right to go to the bowl.
