    If the Cardinals win, and the Rams lose to the Niners, they will be equal in head to head and conference record. What is the third tiebreaker for western division champ?
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    To break a tie within the division, the tie-breaker after head to head isn't conference record, it's division record. If Cardinals win and Rams lose, Cardinals have the better division record.

    If you're buying the Eagles hype...don't. The teams Eagles have beaten have a combined winning pct of .344. They have beaten Falcons, Panthers, Lions, Broncos, Saints, Jets, Football Team, Giants, and Football Team. They are 0-6 against team with winning records.

    I think the Rams could beat the Bucs. Maybe anyway.

    They have and they could. Brady’s weakness is an inside rusher like Donald.

    Stafford seems like he may be injured a bit still. Underthrows passes, just doesn't look like his usual self.

    But Rams could win SB if Stafford comes on. They are pretty stacked.

    I am torn on this worse than Harlan choosing bacon or sausage. I want to see SF crash and burn but at the same time would be nice if Packers get a chance to wipe them out in the playoffs. Would be sweet to see all the cars here with little flags in the morning then they all disappear in the afternoon. Yep, they are fake ass fans, bragging of SB victories they haven’t even been alive long enough to witness.

    At least here you senior rednecks have seen the 60s championships en vivo.

    John Brodie, baby! I saw him play at Tiger Stadium in Detroit in 1973. Niners lost, 30 - 20, to the Bill Munson-led Detroit Lions.

    I saw John Brodie golfing when I was a crowd marshal at the Bing Crosby golf tournament in the early '70s.

    Yeah but the niners then close to what the lions now are correct? Wasn’t born yet so don’t know.

    I think the Niners don't even make the playoffs - they lose to the Rams, and the Saints beat Atlanta and pass them.

    It's a crapshoot between the Cowboys, Buccaneers, and Rams, all of whom have showed late season weakness and the Cardinals who had one bounce back after floundering since the Packers beat them. I'd like to see the Cowboys come to Lambeau for the NFC championship, but really it could be anybody.
