    2) 49'ers (2) (Winning % .900 > Saints .700)

    15) Rams (15) (Strength of Victory .550 > Panthers .300)
    16) Panthers (16)


    I will update the AFC positions after MNF.


    The Packers are still holding onto their slight lead for No. 1 position. Even if they lose on Thanksgiving they still can maintain #1 for 2 more weeks with a better conference record than the 49'ers.

    The Lions can still win the NFC North. Thursday they can either be 4 games back with 5 to go or they can be 2 games back with 5 to go.

    The conference is now divided into 8 teams with 6 wins or more competing for the 6 playoff spots; and the losers with 4 wins or less. Now on only the top 8 matter.

    Big games this week:
    Packers v. Lions (Go Pack Go!!)
    49'ers v. Ravens (C'mon Ravens)
    Giants v. Saints (Go Giants)


    Minor games
    (add to the Packers Strength of Victory and Strength of Schedule)
    Panthers to beat the Colts
    Buccaneers to beat the Titans
    Chargers to beat the Broncos


    Redskins to beat the Seahawks (lower the 49'ers SOV and SOS)

    I think it would be hilarious if the 49ers went 15-1 and got the 2 seed because we went 16-0.

      The 49ers would/will kill GB in the play-offs.

        Their best win is versus the Bucs. Most impressive is versus the Lions on the road. I am not sold on them yet.

        The team to fear might have been the Texans with Schaub.
        Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

          I don't like that their defense is strong and ours is suspect. That their run defense is one of the best while our running game has returned to the days of Darrell Thompson. I do not like that match-up at all and hope it does not happen.

            Their strength is against something we don't need to do. How is the 49er's pass defense?

              5th in opposing QB rating
              9th in COMP%
              8th in yds/att
              23rd in yards
              13th in TD allowed
              14 INT and 25 sacks

              SF is good enough to stop our running "attack" with their passing defense. Our O-line needs to find jesus if they think they could hold off their rush.

              Their rush D:

              1st in yards
              4th in yds/att
              2nd most fumbles forced
              ZERO TDs allowed on the ground

              Meanwhile, their offense is conservative, but efficient. Against our defense, they'll look like juggernauts.

                  The head to head matchup against the 49ers works to our advantage if the Packers can build a lead. San Francisco isn't built to come back from 2 scores down against anybody. It might be the game in which deferring might not be the right decision.

                  That being said, I fully expect New Orleans to defeat SF in the playoffs.

                    +1, but of all teams only SF looks like it might beat GB

                      The Packers can clinch a playoff spot this week, if they win.

                      The Packers need only one more win and one more loss by either the Cowboys or Giants to clinch the 2nd Wild Card spot.

                      It is the first step in the process. First you get into the playoffs and then with each additional win improve the path to the Super Bowl.

                          Let's see what happens Thursday, against Baltimore.

                          They've had a 'pansy' schedule. Their toughest win was probably Detroit, maybe the Giants. They beat Cincinnati, but the Bengals only scored 7 points. Other games than that, it's been a relatively easy ride for them.

                            Could just be they made that ride easy.

                              There's also something to be said about the playoffs simply being at a different level, and a team that hasn't been there before often finds themselves overwhelmed. I personally believe that the 2009 Packers were a little unprepared for the intensity of the playoff game and that had a lot to do with their struggles in the game against Arizona (offense struggled early, defense struggled throughout), and that having that opportunity in the previous year was essential for their 2010 playoff run. The 49ers haven't been in the playoffs for 9 years, I'm not convinced they won't just be a quick out due to the stage being bigger than they're prepared for. Jim Harbaugh doesn't have a lot of NFL playoffs experience, but he has a lot more than Alex Smith (who is nobody's captain consistency.)
