Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers becomes eligible to return to practice Friday. Green Bay doesn't practice on Fridays, but Rodgers could practice Saturday. "We'll see,' Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Monday, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN. "I mean, he's still going through. . . . There's a protocol; there's targets we're trying to hit each and [more]

Yeah....if they don't win Sunday, it's over. So why bring back Rodgers, to maybe get hurt again?
We have to win out to have even a chance. And even that wouldn't guarantee anything.

9-7 won't be good enough for a wild card in the NFC this year? Seems early to say that.

It seems unlikely when you play around the win percentages of the ESPN's playoff machine (link above), if you set it to winning % then change it so the Packers win all of their games, then the Panthers grab the 5th seed with a 10-5-1 (one tie) record and the Lions and Seahawks both have 9-6-1 (one tie) records.

So while it's not impossible... it's saying the Lions, Seahawks and Packers would all have to lose that extra game... and the likely hood of 3 coin flips all going loss, (if I'm doing this correctly) about a 12.5% chance. So it's certainly not impossible, just unlikely... of course, I've read that the Packers making the playoffs is now down to 5%... so we are rooting/hoping for unlikely things (just like the Packers going on a long undefeated streak last year was unlikely as well).

But there are two wildcard playoff spots, and assuming the Packers go undefeated there are five wildcard teams that could likely get to 10 wins... Packers, Panthers, Seahawks, Lions and Redskins. So it's very likely that both wildcard playoff spots with have 10 wins, but it's possible they might not.

I can just feel it coming...if we win a couple in a row we're going to hear 2010 come up. Last game of season...win and in...lose and out. Could it really come to that? I can also hear...this is just like when we won the SB. Ugh.

Hundley has to lead us to wins over Tampa and Cleveland. 12 has to comeback sharp and take out Carolina on the road and Minnesota at home before needing a win at Detroit.

Can we even call him a Packers fan if he's hoping Packers fans hopes are crushed?

Either way, I don't think you have to worry about it, even if they can beat the Browns and Bucs, it's gonna be toughost getting through Panthers and Vikings....

I still can't believe your that freaking spitful that your anti Packers fan hope...
but it explains why you couldn't say anything nice about the Packers in the whose stepped up thread

Those scenarios are not very probable.

The Packers run the table, there is a better than 50/50 chance they make the playoffs.

From what I can tell by running different scenarios, the worst thing that could happen is 6 or 7 teams finish at 10-6.

The Vikings will be helping The Packers either way this week.
They win this week, then Packer Fans are going to hope they win against the other NFC teams they face, except of course The Packers

The Eagles can really help by beating every NFC team they face the rest of the year.

Atlanta and New Orleans face each other twice in the next 5 weeks, best scenario, a sweep by one or the other.

Things will become clearer with each Packer win.

Let's start with Tampa Bay.

Mucky Tundra (1h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (1h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Dan Campbell on onside kick with 12 minutes left: In hindsight, wish I didn’t do that

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : They have that whole 12th man thing so ...

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Of the times we've played there, I just can't recall hearing our fans.

wpr (16-Dec) : Well done jdlax. Well done.

wpr (16-Dec) : I think more likely to be Pack fans that live in the area.
