With he Packers winning and the Seahawks losing on Thanksgiving, the Packers are now one game behind the Seahawks and Vikings for the last two NFC playoffs spots.

Technically, the Vikings have a tie breakers over the Packers, but if the Packers can beat the Vikings then that's tied up.

Remaining Schedules

Packers
Chiefs (Week 13)
@ Giants
Buccaneers
@ Panthers
@ Vikings
Bears

Vikings
Bears (Week 12)
Bye week
@ Raiders
@ Bengals
Lions
Packers
@ Lions

Seahawks
@ Cowboys (week 13)
@ 49ers
Eagles
@ Titans
Steelers
@ Cardinals

I think that tough Seahawks schedule is going to give the Packers a chance, but they have to remain hot, but I certainly think it's possible the NFC North (possible with the help of a weaker schedule) might be able to get 3 teams to the playoffs.

But can the Packers remain consistently good/hot? Or did they just catch the Lions with some different things?

Also ESPN's playoff "machine" is out and if you click projections based on winning percentages, it has the #2 seed Lions hosting the #7 seed Packers, with #6 seed Vikings going to #3 seed 49ers.

https://www.espn.com/nfl/playoffs/machine

That being said, that has the 49ers losing to the Eagles, and tying the Ravens. While the Lions tie the Cowboys. So a lot depends on those games.

Also, the previously showed Vikings games against the Packers and Lions and how those come out.

My predictions
1) Eagles
2) 49ers
3) Lions
4) Saints?
5) Cowboys
6) Vikings
7) Packers

But if the Packers beat the Vikings, they might be able to get the #6 seed. But I'm thinking they mess up somewhere along the way and they're battling the Seahawks for the 7th seed.

1) Eagles bye week
2) 49ers beat whomever the 7th seed is
3) Lions in a divisional rivalry playoff game could be interesting, could be Packers or Vikings.
4) Cowboys whomever the 4th seed is

Next round depends on if Lions win or lose. But I'm thinking we see Eagles and 49ers rematch in the NFC Championship game. 49ers DL vs Eagles OL. Great matchup. And 49ers might have a healthy QB this time.

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger
