The Vikings.

Look at the schedule for these two teams.

Chicago

@Miami
Philadelphia
@Detroit
New England
@Minnesota
New York Jets
@Green Bay

Minnesota

@Chicago
Green Bay
@Washington
Buffalo
New York Giants
Chicago
@Philadelphia
@Detroit

Chicago has a pretty brutal schedule from here on out. They won't win a whole lot of games down the stretch.

Minnesota doesn't have the easiest schedule, either, but if they play like they did yesterday, they should be able to rack up some wins and make a push.

If they're coming from a 3-6 position, I'm not that worried. 4-5 is getting awfully close to a winning record, going into the last half of the season, though.

You say Vikings, but then you explain why it would be better for the Bears to win. I think you made a mistake.

At any rate, this is an easy one for me, without even looking at the schedules: We want the Bears to win, because they are not as talented as the Vikings and are therefore less of a threat.

To me it's a slam dunk. We should want a Bears win. They are awful and may not win another game all season looking at their schedule.

The Vikings are also pretty crappy but they have the pieces to do some damage if they keep their runaway train of a team somehow on the rails.

They are 3-5. If the Vikings lose three more games their season is over. They have to face the Pack, the Giants and Philly. Detroit may also give them a tough game.

as long as the packers do the homework and win their last 3 division games and one of the other 4, i don't care at all, who will win this game. this would give the packers 10-6 ovr and 5-1 in the division. that's enough to end up in front of the vikings for sure (even if they win all other games) and the bears will not finish better than 10-6, too.

Have none of you ever heard of a tie? If they both can't lose, then at least I want neither to win.

This question needs to be a poll, by the way. Maybe somebody who knows how to do those things could set it up.

Personally...I would love for the Queens to never win another game they will ever play...until the end of time, but hey.

For the purpose of this thread though, I still go Bears because their schedule is brutal, and Minny could somehow fuck up and turn things around for a bit and make things too close for comfort. They need that foot on their throat!

Go Bears!

The Cards helped us a couple years ago.. yesterday they could have yet again against the same Vikes.. they came close.

IMO.. I would rather face the Bears in the playoffs than the Vikes.. the Vikes have enough talent for any given Sunday. The Bears, well they have Cutler.. case closed. ;)

Can we have a tie. 😉

I'm rooting for Chilly to get outcoached again! I don't know why I dislike that man so much, I just do. He has this unwarranted arrogance about him that is frustrating.

I know I rooted for Chicago last year, but that was for different reasons. I think there would be no circumstance in which I would root for the Vikings.

I'd just be reiterating what has already been covered, so I'll just say I want the Bears to win in a hard fought, exhausting game.

Zero2Cool (50m) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over

packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor
