With the Giants losing to the Broncos, the next best team that is trying to get our wild card spot has 5 losses. We only have 4. That means that if we win the rest of our games, we are assured a position in the playoffs.

It certainly won't be easy, but I have faith.

The sleeper team to watch is Atlanta...5-5 with the next 3 games at home, with 4 of theri last 6 at home.

As you said Packers win out and they will be in, just looking at Eagle,Giants and Falcons remaining schedule, IMHO Packers can afford 1 more loss and still make it to the play-offs, 2 more and it could be an iffy situation.

That's why this Baltimore game is so huge. If we lose, I don't see us making the playoffs unless we somehow beat Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh. Also, we have the Cardinals in Arizona.

We certainly don't have it easy.....

^ The Falcons have a terrible Defense though. And some injuries to their tailbacks....

Giants' loss last night is huge. Really gives us some breathing room. Still, the Packers are now in a position where if they take care of their business, then it doesn't matter what others do because they'll get in no problem.

How does this sound?

Wildcard round:

#6 Philadelphia defeats #3 Dallas
#5 Green Bay defeats #4 Arizona

Divisional round:

#6 Philadelphia defeats #1 New Orleans
#5 Green Bay defeats #2 Minnesota

Conference Championship AT LAMBEAU.
#5 Green Bay defeats #6 Philadelphia.

yes, that is fact GB controls their fate. Even during the current winning streak the packers are still making dumb mistakes and silly penalties. I just do not see why MM does not get after his players when they are making stupid mistakes on the field.

I am hoping 10-6 will make the playoffs b/c I think GB will lose to Pitt & AZ

So if you meet me Have some courtesy, Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse, Or I'll lay your soul to waste

dhpackr, McCarthy DOES get on his players for penalties. He said in a press conference earlier in the year that he has been pulling players that make dump mistakes like these penalties.

He probably meant mainly on special teams, because I doubt he would just pull one of our best players on offense/defense.

I think 10-6 definitely gets us in. Eagles and Giants and Falcons beat up on eachother and ATL has to play N.O. As long as PHI and GB get 9 wins, maybe 10, they're in i think.

This Baltimore game is very big. Hopefully we finally play good on national TV against a good team.
