And hey, it's not over until it's over. I mean, it basically is but not quite yet!

Then the Panthers have to face the Packers (and we're working under the crazy assumption that the Packers might be going undefeated). While the Falcons have to face the Saints...

And if the Panthers and Falcons both lose those games, they then have to face each other... and if the Packers have then go undefeated, then the Panthers/Falcons game will be a playoff game, with the winner being in the wildcards (with the Packers) and the loser being out.


Of course, again, crazy assumptions in this like[list]
  • Packers will go undefeated against the Panthers, Vikings and Lions
  • Rams will win in Seattle
  • Falcons will lose in New Orleans[/list]
  • But the only super Crazy one is the one that the Packers can themselves potentially control... them winning.

    (I'm sure there is some crazy scenario where the Packers could win out and not make the playoffs. But not likely.)

    Dallas @ Oakland.
    Would be nice if Oakland would win this game.
    That happens and Atlanta loses next 3, The Packers would not be eliminated with a loss this week.
    Atlanta @ Tampa Bay
    Root for Bucs to win.

    Jets @ Saints. Either way really has no effect.
    A Jets win = Help for Packers

    Bears @ Lions
    Bears could eliminate Lions so let's root for The Bears.

    Rams @ Seahawks.
    The Packers benefit more with a Rams win.
    Not season ending if Seahawks win.

    Bengals @ Vikings
    Vikings will probably wrap up the division this week.
    If they don't, look out , it could be the start of another major implosion by The Vikes!

    That Baaaaaaad man is back, fresh legs, a really good running game behind him, the Sprint to the playoffs starts Sunday!
