If we don’t win the division, we might not even make the playoffs. There are other teams that are playing well enough to be a wildcard team.
Winning the division means at least one home game in the playoffs.
So I personally want Seattle to beat the Vikings.
And I just heard Thelen won’t be playing tonight, hamstring.

Nothing easy about this game.

The Packers finish with 3 division games.
The Vikings will definately not be easy.

The Bears and Lions would love to knock The Packers out of the division title or even the playoffs, so I'm not worried about a so called "soft" schedule.

The Packers are going to benefit either way tonight.
Even if The Vikings lose, The Packers still have to beat them week 16 if all stays the same.

The real Wild Card here is The Los Angeles Rams.
They have games with The Seahawks and 49r's coming up.
Time to be a Rams fan while remembering to hope The Packers take care of business.

I feel bad for those who aren't able to enjoy The Packers victories becsuse they spend most of the time over analyzing The game.

There are NO EASY WINS, especially road games, in The NFL.

Yesterdays game was great!
The snow was flying.
The Giants put up a fight in the 1st half
Aaron was Aaron most of the time.
The D created 3 turnovers.

The Packers pulled away in the fourth quarter.

GREAT WIN!

ESPN writers are idiots!
Still trying to create the news instead of reporting it.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Very true Buckeye.
If there isn’t drama, the writers will try to make something up.
It’s boring to say “The Packers took care of business, making sure the Giants didn’t get back in the game”.
Better to try to CREATE some kind of drama.
“Oh! The Packers didn’t win by 30! They only won by 18!! They stink !!!”😂

Though I can't help but get the feeling that they just don't have the horses to shock the world, as they're already over achieving their talents.

And someone who can cover the middle, while also defending the run, and get the DBs to play consistently at a high level. Would take consistently winning the turnover and yardage battle

Beyond that, pretty much. We've looked like a team that'll lose in the first or second round of the playoffs for more or less the last 5-10 weeks. Not saying we can't go further or win it all, but it'd take the best game of the season all around. King seriously needs to get benched or have an epiphany - I get that there's probably nothing better behind him, but when he's getting burned every week for big yards and scores, what's the harm in getting someone else some snaps especially in a game like the last two weeks where it was more or less over by the fourth quarter? Someone could surprise you, or the benching could light a fire under King's ass.

In any case, I like our remaining schedule. Trap game against Washington, followed by 3 tough division games including a likely almost must-win game against the Vikings to finish out the regular season. If there's any time for the Packers to start building and maintaining momentum, it's now. We humiliated ourselves against the niners, played a good game against the Giants... Let's keep moving forward! Definitely can still take the #1 or #2 seed if we win out or maybe lose one remaining game. Niners and Saints (both 10-2) play eachother next week so one of them is going to 10-3. Saints have a not bad but not easy schedule remaining, and Niners play New Orleans, Atlanta, Rams, and Seattle to finish out the season.

Either way, love it and please send more lol.

There are too many “writers” out there that make up something out of nothing.
They do it because, of what you said. You are correct.
The guys want to keep their jobs. And with computers and WWW, it’s never going to get better.

Buckeye I agreed/enjoyed the majority of your post. I probably would have "liked" it until your last comment.

Over the years he hasn't shied away from asking the questions that fans would ask if they had the chance like others have.

Any time a healthy 12 is on the bench in the 4th quarter with the lead, it is a nice win.

D Smith was absolutely outstanding.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress
