This is where the wheels come off.

JUST KIDDING! This Packers team has a tendency to play up to it’s competition, for at least the two quarters during which they actually show up. (Or sometimes down to their competition, as we saw last week.)

The problem for the past three games is that they haven’t shown up for those two quarters.

Well this is where the Packers love to be. They are now in a position with their backs to the wall, a truly “must win” situation. That’s where they put themselves in ’10 before they made their run. That’s where they put themselves in games on a routine basis. They are incapable of just playing well and putting other teams away.

If the Packers lose today (and I don’t think they will,) Mike McCarthy will be on the hot seat. They pissed away a Superbowl appearance (and quite likely a victory in that game) last year and now are doing the same with this season. But I do not believe they will lose.

The Packers will win this game, right the ship and make a playoff appearance, without having to earn the dreaded “Home Field Advantage.” Not sure how they’ll do in the playoffs, but they’ll be back to their usual “show up for two quarters and get a victory” lifestyle, and everyone will be happy again.

Will this “FAIL as much as you can before you really start trying” tendency cost Mike his job at some point? Yes. I just don’t think that time is now.

I’m a little bit disappointed in Aaron this week for, 1: faking an injury as an excuse for his statwhoring and shitty play and 2: hiding behind his girlfriend’s twitter account to attack Demovsky over his recent article suggesting that Aaron might be having relationship issues. When Greg Jennings sister did that, everyone reacted quite negatively.

I disagree. The Packers will come out with a solid first drive or second drive and then fall to the way side. The Vikings are too good in comparison to the Packers in all three phases of the game. Their QB is playing better than our QB. Their RB is superior to our RB's collectively.

Mike Zimmer defense is taking form and when previous Zimmer defenses faced Aaron Rodgers, they whooped up the Packers.

The Packers will get doubled up this weekend unless Rodgers is on target.

The only change the Packers have is if Rodgers is on target and WR catch the ball. If that does not happen, which it won't, the Packers are going to lose by double digits.

Agree and disagree.

I agree with you nerdman about Rodgers being really really annoying with his behavior and his comments. Demovsky is indeed and idiot but tell him yourself, what kind of person sends a girl to say things to a man?

I disagree about the Packers playing well 2 quarters. We play like shit all game long, what happens is that once ahead the other team start using a prevent defense and we start taking more risks so it seems we are playing better but actually the other team is playing softer.

I agree with Zero about our first drive being usually a good one and then we implode. We've seen this a lot lately so we are used to it.

This game is a fight of forces, on one side our crappy preparation and Mike McCarthy on the other side the Vikings that are due for their annual great slide, a tradition they have honored for years.

So I think it all depends on the Vikes, either they shoot themselves on the foot and start their slide or they just win because we have lost our identity.

Admit it, this team is not really that good. It basically revolves around Rodgers. If he plays lights out, then they win, anything else and it's a loss.

Sorry Nerd, I asked the "Magic 8ball" if the Packers would win like Nerd said and he/she said "it is doubtful".😕

Zero2Cool (37m) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (38m) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (38m) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (42m) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (42m) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
beast (43m) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
beast (43m) : 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 (44m) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
Zero2Cool (47m) : I literally just said it.
packerfanoutwest (51m) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
Zero2Cool (53m) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
Zero2Cool (53m) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.
packerfanoutwest (1h) : 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

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

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 (18h) : Or ties, but let's be real here
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to 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.
