How many wins do you think it takes to win the division? A friend of mine said he thinks 9-7 would do it. I havent looked close enough into it yet to make a decision. But just thinking off the top of my head, that seems pretty accurate. Maybe 10 wins

Well each of the 3 "division leaders" are 3-3 with 10 games left. I can't imagine anyone going 8-2, so you'd have to think 10 would win it. Could you get by with 9? Maybe.

CHI still has 2 against GB and MN, while GB and MN face off once more. Other than that:

Bears still have TN, JAX, and NO.
Vikes still have TB, JAX, ARI, ATL, and NYG
Pack still has IND, TN, JAX, CAR, and NO.

So the Bears have the lightest schedule, but that's still 7 tough games. Do you see them winning 4 of them plus the other 3 they're "supposed" to win? 9 could win it, but I would guess that somebody - and only one team - gets to 10.

Looking at the schedules for all of these teams, they all have to go up against some of the suprises of this year. Or at least some potential tough opponents. I mean TN, CAR, NO, ATL. And then of course for the Vikes the Giants. It should be interesting. I think it is going to be a close one down the stretch. Hopefully we can get our act together. For good.

I have a pretty solid prediciton going this year so far, and it reads: Packers 10-6, Bears 8-8, Vikings 7-9, but of course it's a little biased by the fact that I'm a Packer-fan.

I stated the same thing earlier..........to me it's win the division or your out.
JMO of course.

YOU guys are NUTS!

MY Packers are going to win the rest of 'em!

But seriously, in 1993 or 1994? 3 teams from the NFC central made the playoffs after finishing 9-7 respectively.

Packers were one of the 3 and made it into the divisional round of the playoffs by beating a Barry Sanders led Lions....

It is too early for declaring playoff possibilities but, I think 9-7 makes it in.

vikes will not get that lucky like they did with the saints or the lions,they won by a field goal from the lions saints had opportunity that they wasted bears o-line they have a good runner,hester as a w.r teams know how to stop him when he is on special teams,bush got more than he did when they played the saints,we have a touch schedule but think they win the nfc :icon_smile:

We're not tied we're in first in the division (because of the tie breaker rules) :grin:
