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.

beast (2h) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (2h) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (7h) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (7h) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

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

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

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

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

dfosterf (12h) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

dfosterf (12h) : Zero- Did you see what I posted about Voice of Reason and his wife? She posted over at fleaflicker that they are both "In"

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Well, not crazy, it makes sense. Crazy I didn't notice/find it earlier

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : it's crazy how one stored procedure to get data bogged everything down for speed here

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Yesterday my wife and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront here in Alexandria, Va. A daycare company took about 15 three/four year olds

wpr (7-Aug) : seems faster. yay

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Wife of reason posted on the in/out thread on fleaflicker that both she and vor are in

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : This page was generated in 0.135 seconds.

Mucky Tundra (7-Aug) : Tbh, I can never tell the difference in speed unless it's completely shitting the bed

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Sure does feel like site is more snappy

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : I thought that was the Lions OL

Mucky Tundra (6-Aug) : Travis Glover placed on IR; seasons over for him

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Update: Rock has tried a cheese curd, promises it's not his last

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : watch it!! lol

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : you're right, we never did leave, the site just went down :P

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Rock claims to have never eaten a cheese curd

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : We did not leave.

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin
