Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers becomes eligible to return to practice Friday. Green Bay doesn't practice on Fridays, but Rodgers could practice Saturday. "We'll see,' Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Monday, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN. "I mean, he's still going through. . . . There's a protocol; there's targets we're trying to hit each and [more]

Yeah....if they don't win Sunday, it's over. So why bring back Rodgers, to maybe get hurt again?
We have to win out to have even a chance. And even that wouldn't guarantee anything.

9-7 won't be good enough for a wild card in the NFC this year? Seems early to say that.

It seems unlikely when you play around the win percentages of the ESPN's playoff machine (link above), if you set it to winning % then change it so the Packers win all of their games, then the Panthers grab the 5th seed with a 10-5-1 (one tie) record and the Lions and Seahawks both have 9-6-1 (one tie) records.

So while it's not impossible... it's saying the Lions, Seahawks and Packers would all have to lose that extra game... and the likely hood of 3 coin flips all going loss, (if I'm doing this correctly) about a 12.5% chance. So it's certainly not impossible, just unlikely... of course, I've read that the Packers making the playoffs is now down to 5%... so we are rooting/hoping for unlikely things (just like the Packers going on a long undefeated streak last year was unlikely as well).

But there are two wildcard playoff spots, and assuming the Packers go undefeated there are five wildcard teams that could likely get to 10 wins... Packers, Panthers, Seahawks, Lions and Redskins. So it's very likely that both wildcard playoff spots with have 10 wins, but it's possible they might not.

I can just feel it coming...if we win a couple in a row we're going to hear 2010 come up. Last game of season...win and in...lose and out. Could it really come to that? I can also hear...this is just like when we won the SB. Ugh.

Hundley has to lead us to wins over Tampa and Cleveland. 12 has to comeback sharp and take out Carolina on the road and Minnesota at home before needing a win at Detroit.

Can we even call him a Packers fan if he's hoping Packers fans hopes are crushed?

Either way, I don't think you have to worry about it, even if they can beat the Browns and Bucs, it's gonna be toughost getting through Panthers and Vikings....

I still can't believe your that freaking spitful that your anti Packers fan hope...
but it explains why you couldn't say anything nice about the Packers in the whose stepped up thread

Those scenarios are not very probable.

The Packers run the table, there is a better than 50/50 chance they make the playoffs.

From what I can tell by running different scenarios, the worst thing that could happen is 6 or 7 teams finish at 10-6.

The Vikings will be helping The Packers either way this week.
They win this week, then Packer Fans are going to hope they win against the other NFC teams they face, except of course The Packers

The Eagles can really help by beating every NFC team they face the rest of the year.

Atlanta and New Orleans face each other twice in the next 5 weeks, best scenario, a sweep by one or the other.

Things will become clearer with each Packer win.

Let's start with Tampa Bay.

Zero2Cool (14-Feb) : Packers are hiring Luke Getsy as senior offensive assistant.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
