I agree with warhawk. We really need to keep Clifton producing, because how he has performed this year has helped us SO much throughout the season. How he performed against Jared Allen in the two games was phenomenal. If he hadn't done so well, we may have lost the first game.

I agree. Bad teams often get upsets because good teams are looking at the next game instead of the one they SHOULD be playing.

I thought we'd beat the Bucs by 20+ points. The Packers were probably thinking the same thing. We know what happened.

This could be the case if the Packers had any "looking-ahead" cards left but they don't. They simply cannot lose this division game and expect to get in.

They know full well that Detroit has come close many times and is capable on any given Sunday. If the Packers play poorly and lose the game it won't be because they were thinking beyond the Lions.

These kinds of upsets happen when teams are cruising along and have just played a tough game and have another rivalry type game the following week. We are just not in any kind of position to overlook anybody at this point.

I have said this before but I think if we are successful and win enough games from here on out to take the North it will be in part due to the fact that the team had no option but to take these last 5 games one at a time. The loss to Atlanta iced that. I mean we could have taken the 49'rs lightly playing them at home last week but didn't.

I wouldn't bother looking ahead at New England since that game hardly does anything for our hunt in the NFC. Hell, we might lose to NE.

If the team starts looking ahead to NE, we might lose to Detroit.
