Redskins are doomed with losing Smith for the year so I see them atleast losing 2 against the Eagles

I dont see the Vikes losing 3 but it could depend on the seahawks and then that bites us in the ass to

And like others have said I dont see us running the table so lets get a good draft pick lol
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be šŸ™‚ (PS, Zero should charge for this)

As Packer fans we cheer and support our team. Some hold on to the last drop that they will make it to the playoffs. Few, and there are some, see the reality of this teams current good and bad points. A HOF QB is just not enough, if it were Dan Marino would have SB rings in his trophy case. Drew Brees appears to be on his way to his second SB ring because he is not the Saints only star. In addition, their offensive/defensive play calling is better than their opponents.

GB got a new GM this season and he has tried to make the Packers a better team. However sometimes the same recipes keep coming out of the kitchen. I support a change of HC as well as a clean/new staff in the scouting dept. That means goodbye TT, enjoy your retirement. IMO, GB needs to clean house and rethink how the team needs to build a SB continder.

The Packers are making the playoffs.

Will Pack run the table? Willie McGinest predicts GB's final five games
I'm sorry that I have to be real with you about this. As a Bears fan, I would love to share in the optimism that the Packers, at 4-6-1 heading into Week 13, are dead. I really would. But I've seen this play out way too many times.

And I'm not talking about the Hollywood tropes in horror movies where the bad guy is never really dead. Although that clearly applies here. I can remember a time when former Bears safety Chris Conte did the exact opposite of Neve Campbell in "Scream" as he let Packers WR (and notorious Bears killer) Randall Cobb get away and waltz into the Soldier Field end zone (on fourth down, mind you) for the game-winning score in what should have been a Chicago victory that secured the NFC North title in Marc Trestman's first season as coach. I mean, seriously, if that wasn't a horror movie, I don't know what is. You had the innocent man who was wrongly accused of a crime -- Lovie Smith, who was fired the season prior for leading the Bears to a 10-6 record. And then he was replaced by Trestman, who seemed like a nice guy and all. But eventually, we pulled off the mask Scooby-Doo style at the end to find out that it was really Mike Holmgren in disguise. That last part might not have happened (even though my mind says it did).

So forgive me. I'm not about to join the parade of men and women I admire who have said the Packers are done. Love you all, but I'm not there yet.

I'm even arguing with you, math. Your statistical models say the Packers have a six percent chance of making the playoffs. Yeah, OK. What was your statistical model telling you when Rodgers heaved that desperation toss against the Lions on "Thursday Night Football" in 2015? WHAT WAS IT TELLING YOU? So take that, math.

There are other numbers that keep trying to convince me the Packers have no shot at the playoffs:

-- The Packers have the same exact record as the Cleveland Browns. The Browns!

-- The Packers are below .500 after 11 games for the third consecutive season.

-- The Packers have gained 229 yards and eight first downs in their last two second halves combined.

-- The Packers are the only team in the NFL other than the 49ers without a road win this year. In fact, Aaron Rodgers has lost eight consecutive road games. Eight! That's the longest streak by a Packers quarterback since David Whitehurst lost nine straight from 1978-1981. I've followed the NFL for just about my whole life. I've never heard of David Whitehurst until today.

I see what you're trying to say, statistics. But nah.

And even my eyes want to get into the act. They're telling me that this Packers team clearly doesn't look as good as those of the past. And that Rodgers is missing too many wide-open throws, holding onto the ball way too long and not checking down enough. Or that Mike McCarthy and Rodgers look like an old married couple sitting in a diner, not making eye contact as they silently eat their eggs benedict. The only thing steamier than the coffee is their bitter resentment toward each other. Nope, not having it.

So, you can take your facts, your numbers, your visual evidence and stick it. I'm not buying it.

Even bares fans know Aaron Rodgers is screwing up.

Will the Packers start to play with a sense of urgency? Will Aaron Rodgers start to play like his hair is on fire like he did in week 1? If so GB has a chance. If not, there's no hope. We shall see.

This is one of the rare seasons where I realistically have no hope that the Packers will make the playoffs.
If they had looked like they were not ā€œthe walking deadā€ for the last several weeks, maybe I would have hope. But they have not looked like a team ready to pull out of their funk. No, they look deeply mired in their funk.
With only 5 games left, itā€™s not even in their own hands.
And we havenā€™t seen Rodgers come up with a new slogan likeā€relaxā€ or ā€œrun the tableā€.
I think even he knows itā€™s not going to happen this year.

There's an article on NFL.com right now talking about how Aaron Rodgers is ready to start taking more risks in an attempt to make a late playoff push. The problem is it's too little, too late. The time to do that was two or three weeks ago, at least. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would have traded a few more interceptions for the chance at a playoff berth. That 20:1 TD:INT ratio is kind of meaningless when you're leading the league in throwaways and are still one of the most sacked quarterbacks in the league.
