It would be amazing... If the Packers actually won the NFC North this year.

Hey.. I have seen some serious Viking collapses in my life. And... It is still mathematically possible after the Vikes loss to AZ tonight.

Anything can happen. Just ask the Steelers players tonight.

The problem is not the vikings loosing them all but us WINNING them all. That's the tricky part.

I was thinking exactly the same things as I was watching the game tonight.

If the Packers will all their remaining games, they will finish 12-4; if the Vikings lose 3 of their last four games, they will finish 11-5. It could very well happen. Obviously if Green Bay loses a game, Minnesota will have to go winless for the rest of the year.

Vikings remaining opponents:
Cincinnati
@ Carolina
@ Chicago
New York Giants

Wouldn't that be awesome. I wonder how series hendersons injury is. Thats a big hit to the vikings d

Arizona has a pretty easy road aside from GB in the final game, its possible they win out, MINN loses 2 of the next 4 and the vikes loose their first round buy by virtue of the head to head tie breaker.

Minn:
Cincinnati (9-3), at Carolina (5-7), at Chicago (5-7), N.Y. Giants (7-5).

Arizona:
San Francisco (5-7), at Detroit (2-10), St. Louis (1-11), Green Bay (7-4).

Unfortunately, that scenario has us loosing to Arizona. So amend that to Arizona going 3-1 down the stretch, the Vikings losing all of their remaining games, Green Bay winning out, Philly beating Dallas but losing to the Giants, and the NFC East winning all remaining games against non-division opponents. Suddenly, Green Bay wins the North at 12-4 and has a bye because Arizona and the NFC East winner would be 11-5. Dallas, New York, and Philly would all be 11-5 and Minnesota would be 10-6. Minnesota misses the playoffs! Hell, while we're at it let's have New Orleans lose out and finish 12-4 as well, giving us home field advantage for the playoffs due to the conference record tie breaker.

Hey, it could happen 🙏

While I wouldn't shed a tear at that, fact remains in that scenario we go play the Vikings in the Metrodome.

I still would rather have Favre come out to the cold in Lambeau where he has been bad the past couple of years (in cold weather, not Lambeau).

Given the fact that Capers emphasizes shutting down the run, the cold may be the advantage we need to take out the Vikes.

As for the topic, it would be awesome. So much of the playoffs is getting hot at the right time.... like the Giants, and the Cards did .....

Crazier things have happened...I think?

Love the optimism guys. But let's focus on beating the Ravens first? Don't forget that if the pack were to lose this game, we would be clinging to a tie for the 6th seed in the playoffs.

Winning the division would be awesome, duh, but I honestly don't care how we get in, as long as we get in. It's more important to be playing well and staying healthy going into the playoffs. We don't need to win the division to make a run at this thing, wildcard teams have a rich history of going very far in the playoffs 🙂
