The fact is in any match up involving another NFC team against an AFC team you should always want the AFC team to win.

Go Chargers!!!!!!!

I'm not sure if this is true or not but it might be....

I've read that if the Cowboys lose to the Chargers that means the Packers will be in the NFC's 5th seed at the end of the week no matter what happens in the other 15 games... :magnifyglass: anyone gonna root for the Chargers this week? ... GO CHARGERS :thumbright:

The thought is that if the Cowboys lose then the winner or the Eagles vs Giants game becomes the division leader and the Packers will have a better record than the Cowboys and/or have the head to head tie breaker over the Cowboys.

The only other way for the Packers to get in the 5th seed this week is Packers beat the Bears AND the Giants beat the Eagles.

I'd rather have the #4 seed. (Still possible)

My man, so you're saying you believe in the Viking late season nose dive? What would be even sweeter would be to host the Vikings in Lambeau on a really cold day. We all remember how Brett enjoys the cold games at this juncture in his career.

What do we need to face the viks instead of the saints?

The final six teams will be ranked #1 thru #6.

If we end up the 6th seed and NO is #1 we would play them in the second round by virtue of them getting the lowest team ranked going into that round.

If I am not mistaken we would need to be #5 for sure and the 6th seed would also have to win sending them to NO and us to the Vikes because if the 6th seed were to lose we would be the lowest ranked team left.

that's the way I understand it warhawk. If NO is the #1 seed (and they will be) and the Vikings are #2, we would need to win the first round and not be the lowest seeded team in round two of the playoffs.

We need to face the Vikings in the first game of playoffs ... If we could get that match up it would be amazing.

The rating of that game would probably be higher then the SB ratings.

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

I am not counting out the Packers for winning out the rest and the Vikings to lose 3 of the next 4.

That gives US the #3 or #4 seed.

Honestly I don't think it's possible... because that means the Packers would have to have a better record than the Vikings (which is possible (but unlikely at this point)) AND 3 teams would have better records than Packers...

If the Packers are able to catch and pass the Vikings then they would probably be the #3 or #2 seed...

If we win and the Giants lose and the Cowboys win the Packers are still 6th... do you mean if the Cowboys lose?

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔
