You can also look at it that the only 6th seed to make it to the SuperBowl, won the damn thing!! It's a glass half full of Koolaid thing!

Somebody's got to be first to do something, can't think of a better team to do it than the Pack.

We're already up on the 2007 Giants. Prior to the Giants in 2007, no 5th seed had made it to the Superbowl, and no 5th seed had won the Superbowl.

edit: At least for us a 6th seed has won it already.

BUT, we still need to get by the Bears this weekend. I'm going to continue to focus on beating the Bears like a rug, and hopefully, we'll have the opportunity to repeat the performance two weeks in a row.

Yeah, it can be done. The Steelers did it in the AFC. Home field in the playoffs is not as big of an advantage as it used to be. What I don't like is that if the Packers make it they will have to beat the Bears twice in a row. It's hard to beat a team twice in a row. The loser of the first game usually plays with more fire in the second game.

Yeah, it's difficult to do, but think how demoralizing it would be to the Bears to get spanked twice in a row, once at Lambeau and then again at Soldier Field. They'd have all offseason to think about it. SWEET!

Although the Giants were a 5th seed, I believe, they did have 3 road games en route to their SB. I think Pitt and maybe the Raiders??? did the same this decade. Furthermore, what team really worries you about going on the road for? The Packers played the top AFC team and damn near beat them on the road, and either did, or damn near beat the top 3 NFC teams on the road (Atl, Phi, Chi).

My point is that the Packers have demonstrated the ability to play with any team in the league anywhere.
