i'm really not sure this game matters much to the Packers. Further, why would you show a lot of your good stuff against the Vikings if they are a potential playoff opponent?

I would sit Love and Jacobs.

Go Packers!!!!

Beating the Buccaneers might be easier than beating the Eagles or Rams for that matter.

The game we need to watch is the Skins vs Falcons, that one means alot as it could move the Falcons into 1st place and and could knock the Redskins out of the playoffs, we could very well split the last 2 games and could end up going to Atlanta and the Lions could get the Rams

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Like Commanders would have to lose both their remaining games, while Falcons and Buccaneers would have to both win their remaining games, and on top of that the Rams would have to lose one as well.

That's at least 7 games that would have to go perfectly right. 10 games if you want to add the Vikings passing the Lions part.

I wonder if that means they're giving up a ton of yardage (or teams are behind passing the ball a lot) and they're getting into the red zone, but not the endzone.

Vikings are 2nd and Packers are 6th in the Power Rankings.

If you go by last three games played, Packers are 2nd and Vikings are 3rd. One team is on the rise ...

Biggest difference between these two teams is the Packers level of physicality since Week 4. If the Packers lay out the first punch, expect this game to look closer on the scoreboard than it really is.

Zero speaks in mysterious ways I suppose.

To avoid the Eagles in the first week of the playoffs, Packers need to win out, or have the Commanders lose as well.

No Watson to try to blow the top off, I'm guessing they're going to have Wicks in instead, and the question is will he drop of catch passes?

I liked how Melton replaced Watson last year.
