What I took from this was that the Packers could still get the #2 seed.

Its an interesting spin on the playoff picture. Usually you see what needs to happen for a team to clinch something instead of being eliminated. I'm guessing the list of things that need to happen for the Packers to clinch the number 2 seed would take up a full page and obviously they would involve more than just week 15 so this makes sense.

Atlanta needs to lose 2 of their 3 games. (SF,@CAR,NO)
Tampa needs to lose 2 of their 3 games. (@DAL,@NO,CAR)

Washington and the Giants are non factors for the #2 seed because assuming Dallas wins the division they are relegated to wildcard spots.

I don't really care about the #2 spot. That's not gonna happen anyway.
All I care about is the Packers winning the division and getting into the "dance".
We need some help, and to win out for that to happen.

Yes, it IS "possible" But so is being struck by lightning.

Let's flip this just to make a li ist of games that could help The Packers.
Obvious ones for Division.
Giants over Lions
Colts over Vikings

These to keep a wild card option for The Packers alive.
Cowboys over Tampa Bay.
Carolina over Redskins

These just for future consideration.

Saints over Cardinals.
Saints have a game against Tampa Bay in week 16.
Would be nice if they have something to play for.

Falcons over 49r's.
This game will help The Packers either way.
Would like to see The Falcins take control of South.

Rams over SeaHawks.
Never going to happen, but just want to see that idiot coach in Seattle cry a little.

I'm going to pay close attention to that Cowboy - Buc game.
Dak Prescott gets off to a bad start, you will see Jerry on the sidelines telling the coach to put in Romo.
Jerry just can't help himself, The Cowboys will implode right on National TV.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

There's one scenario that removes the Packers from the playoffs:

Green Bay is eliminated with a loss to Chicago and wins by Detroit, Tampa Bay, Atlanta, and Washington.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.
