  • Packers beats the Lions, and Rams beats or ties the Seahawks[/list]

    • 2nd Seed
    [list=1]
  • Packers beats the Lions[/list]

    • 3rd Seed
    The Packers cannot win this spot

    4th Seed
    The Packers cannot win this spot

    5th Seed
    [list=1]

    I vowed that I'd never get into these hypotheticals, and Damn it, now I am. Anyway, I think the winner of gb det gets the #2 no matter what. I was worried there could be a scenario where the Pack goes right back to Ford Field next week, and I don't think that's possible...so the prize Sunday is a 1st week bye as far as I can tell.

    Correct, either Packers or Lions will have a BYE. Whomever wins, will have at worst 2nd seed. I probably enjoy the hypothetical aspect of playoffs more than the game itself. That won't be true for Week 17 although the "what if this or that" was more interesting to me than the game versus the Buccaneers.

    I'm hoping and halfway expecting the Rams to rise up and knock off the Seahawks this week to make the situation more clear.

    Zero, I really don't see the Cards winning any games.
