Bye Weeks

Arizona, Seattle

Gosh, it doesn't feel like the Packers are a 2 seed.

Potentially biggest game of the season (not postseason) this week.

Perhaps it feels like this because they haven't been playing like they can the past couple of games.

If we lose to the Panthers on Sunday we can kiss HFA goodbye. Carolina has a cupcake schedule the rest of the way.

We have too look out for the Vikes. They are not playing great but they are finding ways to win. Yes they have a cupcake schedule but they are winning.

They have an identical schedule to the Packers, except they play the Falcons and Giants (combined 10-6) instead of Carolina and Dallas (combined 9-5)

[Pugger]

The Vikes are poised to take this division unless we start playing better. :sad:

[denverYooper]

There's always a new threat -- Bears, Lions, and Vikings all rotate in to that spot. But the Packers under M3 and Rodgers have reigned supreme.

Different order. They have played the Lions two times already.
