you know, its funny ... as bad as 08 was...our pack was actually 3 plays from winning NFC North and hosting a playoff game in january. Yep...3 little plays... that is the difference between us at 6-10 and Vikings at 10-6.

1. Crosby's miss at metrodome - he makes the kick, we win the game. and we have 7 wins and Vikings have 9 wins

2. Crosby's 1 iron vs bears at Soldier - Crosby makes the kick, we win the game and we have 8 wins and bears finish with 8 wins

3. Longwell's 51 yard FB with 5 seconds left vs Giants in week 17 ... Giants emptied their bench in second half after dominating the 1st half. Vikings drive the field vs Giants scrubs and Longwell is good from 51 with 5 seconds left to give Vikings a 20-19 win. Longwell misses that kick , Crosby makes his when we played at Metrodome... we are 8-8, Vikes are 8-8, bears are 8-8 and We win tie breaker by sweeping the division and host Atlanta on a snowy freezing day vs a rookie QB....who knows what would have happened

yep...3 plays... pretty crazy...

Those are DEFINITE ones. How about any borderline ones you predict would've shifted our final record?

I say the coin flip in the Tennessee game. That game was ours if our D didn't have to withstand two consecutive late drives.

Agreed, the post got me thinking a little beyond the record and the 4th quarter collapses.. even with all that we weren't that far from still taking the Division...

Now don't get me wrong, we have a ton to improve upon, but the breaks can't get any worse than they fell in 2008... call it renewed hope for 2009.

it's a game of inches. but, I'd rather not make the playoffs than get embarrassed in the first round. not saying that we would've been embarrassed, but our defense last year was shit, and our o-line was inconsistent at best.


BUT, VERY interesting stuff.

Agreed... but I think it speaks volumes about the NFCN and our chances this season if we field even a average consistent defense.

That is very interesting. I tried to take a look the other way but could only come up one for sure and a maybe on the other for 3 plays that would have turned 2 of our wins into losses. The Blackmon punt return week one for a td without that we lose. The Colts game it would be 2 plays both INTS returned for tds take 14 points away from the Packers and give the Colts 7 and the win goes the other way.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I think these 3 were a bit closer because they all came down to a FG. I totally understand what you're trying to say, but these came down to just a kick.

Taking 2 TDs from our side and giving 1 TD to the Colts is a little bit of a stretch. We dominated them that game.

The Blackmon TD is understandable, but we were still leading at that point when it happened.
The Pack Will Be Back.
