Official How Will Packers Do In The Playoffs Thread?

[Joemailman]

Is this the year Packers get over the NFCCG hump? Will they even make it that far?

Poll to follow.

[Joemailman]

I really like where the Packers are offensively. Rodgers is playing great. Adams is Adams and Lazard is playing the best ball of his career. They should have Cobb and MVS back at close to 100%. Jones will be rested and Dillon is running with a lot of power. Bakhtiari looked very good today, and I think Myers was okay. The only concern is not having a real downfield threat at TE.

[George Cumby]

Fuckit.

Win it all.

I agree. Offensively they looked prime to roll. The craziest thing is Adams aside this entire lineup should be back next year if they want to be (Cobb).

I feel less good about the defense but I sort of think they have the talent where they can flip the switch. Kenny Clark seems like he can destroy a game plan when he really needs to. My biggest concerns are DE and I would hold some tryouts to inproce depth there before the playoffs start.

I hope very much I'm wrong, but I see us running out of Q4 luck in one of these games and not getting the ball last.

I can see Gisele's husband driving a stake through the Pack's SB hope's hearts.

Jake From State Farm Superb Owl. Rematch of Superb Owl I which was also held in Los Angeles.

[call_me_ishmael]

This is a team of destiny. They will win the bowl.

[RashanGary]

I'm so used to losing in the playoffs. I can't predict an Owl. If Bretsky does the game threads, maybe I can get in on the whammy.

[Bretsky]

I worry we get there, and lose to KC.

[Joemailman]

I worry we get there, and lose to KC.

Nah. Packers always beat Chiefs in Superb Owl.

[Fritz]

I think the special teams seems to have stabilized a bit, at least the kicking game, though Bojorquez seems to be in a slump (hopefully a week away will help him get out of it). If they use Moore as a returner they can at least be okay, and maybe they'll stay in their lanes and tackle people. The defense of course is the big worry, though with Devondre Campbell they are much better than last year. The offensive line should be better this year than last year - poor Rick Wagner was playing on one knee against Tampa Bay.

So if the defense holds up and LeFleur/Rodgers don't have a huge brain fart in the play-calling department, then this team can go all the way.

I love your guys optimism. I’ve been broken by 11 years of close but no cigar.

Try being a Bears, Vikings or Detroit fan.

The Bears last won the 'Owl, get this, 36 years ago.

We won't even talk about the Vikings or Lions.

[Tony Oday]

I really think we lose this in the divisional round. Defense has been atrocious lately and they will take DA out of the game. I want to be wrong but I doubt it.

[MadScientist]

Time and time again we've seen a good D shut down offenses in the playoffs. The Packers haven't shown a championship D since Ming went down. Too many missed assignments. I don't think Z will make a difference and Alexander isn't likely fully ready. The Packers offense is good, but not close to unstoppable. Maybe they win one, but more likely one and done. I hope I'm completely wrong.

[MadtownPacker]

Rodgers matches Favre making it to two, losing one.

[RashanGary]

Rodgers matches Favre making it to two, losing one.

I remember growing up the Bills would make it to the SB seemingly every year and lose. That’s the Packers now with NFCC games. We’re always there and always lose.

I don’t like our defense. It’s average. And I don’t love the offense. It’s good. It’s hard for me to picture a championship with this team.

But maybe Z comes back and infuses some energy to 3rd down. Maybe Jaire comes back and fortifies the secondary. Maybe Bakh comes back along with Meyers and Turner and makes the OL more formidable. There are still reinforcements on the way.

[King Friday]

I don't see a dominant defense this year. The Niners are kryptonite for us, but I think we avoid them. Either Rams or Cards are likely for first game, which will favor the Packers. I think we may face Dallas in the NFCCG, which means just keep it close until the final minutes and let Fat Mike screw it up.

Rematch of SB I is probably the game the league wants, and probably gets. Will be high scoring. Rodgers ain't losing in a shootout. Packers beat Chefs 38-34.

[smuggler]

Bills or Chiefs would be exciting matchups. No shame in a game against those squads, no matter the outcome.

[scharpcheddar]

Either them or Bucs in SB.
Pack/Bucs or Raiders win SB

[Upnorth]

This is the first win of our 3rd three peat.

Sticky this thread!

Nice hedging your bets this time. Three chances for you to be proven prophetic instead of one. ISWYDT.

I like the cut of your jib.

[Thirteen Below]

I can see Gisele's husband driving a stake through the Pack's SB hope's hearts.

I know they say in order to be the best ya gotta beat the best, but I say screw that. I don't want to play Brady. If the Cowboys take him out, I think there's an excellent chance we go all the way, but if we have to get past him in the NFCCG, I don't have a good feeling. The man is 10-4 in conference championship games, Rodgers is 1-4. He's the one guy I don't want to face going forward.

[SudsMcBucky]

Mercilus returns to practice. Could be good to go by the game.

[Fritz]

Where did you hear this? You must be pulling our collective leg. I have heard nothing about him being able to return this year.

This is so, so, so good and made my day. It feels so accurate too. It's playoff season, I cannot wait. This is the year they're going to do it.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Crazy about Mercilus. I thought he was done for the year.

[RashanGary]

Crazy about Mercilus. I thought he was done for the year.

Z as a pass rush specialist and Mercilus taking Tipa and Garvins snaps. Damn! Might be able to rest Gary and Preston a little more and that could get more out of them.

Well this prediction lasted all of one game in to the playoffs.

Care to try again Nostrildamus?

[Fritz]

That's a serious Homer Simpson moment for him. Doh!

But wait - what if the commissioner's thugs showed up at his door and threatened him if he didn't throw us all off the scent?

Yeah, that's it. That's the ticket.

[scharpcheddar]

Um,notice there's 2 teams still relevant there.

Yes,the entertainment league decided to tease till the very last play of the Bengals game and fuck it over.

Lol
Homer Simpson is the example of what the elite think of your ass.

Funny thing is, most of us here know we're beer sucking morons and don't have illusions otherwise.

If you're going to insult us, well, you're going to have to do better than that.

Oh, and 42, btw.

Hmmm, maybe there is something to this numbers thing. Three statements of fact, all wrong and three syllables in sharpcheddar. Coincidence ?
