Here’s the Good News: Packers Just Won the Super Bowl

DETROIT – The bad news from Thursday night is the Green Bay Packers’ loss to the Detroit Lions means they won’t win the NFC North.

The good news is the Packers just won the Super Bowl.

Check out this historical parallel provided by Pro Football Network.

When the Packers won their last Super Bowl in 2010, they:

- Played on the road against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1.

- Had a Week 10 bye.

- Lost at the Detroit Lions in Week 14.

- Wrapped up the regular season at home against the Chicago Bears.

- Beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl; the Steelers started the season 9-3.

Now, here’s the story for the Packers in 2024:

- Played the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1 – the Packers were the designated road team in Brazil.

- Had a Week 10 bye.

- Lost at the Detroit Lions in Week 14.

- Will wrap up the regular season at home against the Chicago Bears

- The Pittsburgh Steelers are 9-3.

The parallels run even deeper.

If the season were to end today, the Packers would be the No. 6 seed in the NFC playoffs. In 2010, the Packers were the No. 6 seed in the NFC.

In 2010, the Packers needed to win their final two games to get into the playoffs. This year, the Packers have a one-game lead over the Commanders in the race for the No. 6 seed and will have no worse than a two-game lead over the Buccaneers, Cardinals and Rams – all 6-6 – in the chase for the No. 7 seed by the end of the weekend.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur wasn’t going to take anything for granted, though, after losing to the Lions on the final play.

“Yeah, that’s a long way away,” he said of the possibility of getting a third shot at the Lions. “If we don’t look at what we have right in front of us, then we’re doing ourselves a disservice. You’ve got to keep your eyes down and just continue to work and grind and get better, stay together. All these games from here on out, like I told our team, they’re going to come down to situations like this.

I think the only thing the 2010 and 2024 packers have in common is their name.

Im surprised the author didnt note how both the 2010 and 2024 packers losses were all narrow losses.

I'm not seeing a title for us this year - just too many things we aren't doing right. Pass rush rarely gets home - watch last Thursday night's game, how often did Goff have time to survey the field without anyone breathing on him? Pass coverage is mediocre, sometimes just plain bad - especially over the middle... been that way for years. Receivers still dropping too many passes, Love going for the home run too often...

I'm not saying this isn't a good team, but I think there are just too many things that need improvement to bring the Lombardi home. I think we are still a year or 2 out.

RaiderPride would remind you that during 2010 season I said we'd win the Super Bowl. I will you that I have no such feeling during this 2024 season. We'll see how these last four games go. And if we recall, those last four games are when the Packers turned into something special. Granted, it was mainly the defense going "simple" that did the trick. I don't think there's a tweak similar that will have equal results.
