Win or Lose? @Washington or Vs. Seattle/Minnesota for Playoffs

[pbmax]

^ Circumstances are a bit different, but not significant enough to forego this strategy.

Plus add a few more.

Patriots rule out LB Dont'a Hightower, WR Julian Edelman, CB Justin Coleman, OT Sebastian Vollmer, DE Chandler Jones, LB Jonathan Freeny.

Dont'a Hightower, Chandler Jones won't play in regular season finale http://wp.me/p14QSB-9X7S

Belichick gets it.

What he gets is that his team has already clinched a first round bye, and is playing a bad team that has basically nothing to play for. And he knows they can easily beat this team while sitting two of their best defensive players. If the Pats were playing a good team that could jump them in the standings, forcing them to go on the road in the first round vs playing at home, I'm sure they would play.

is this thread moot yet?

[smuggler]

Kind of unfair comparing strategies when Hightower and Edelmen would not be able to go, even if it were an elimination game.

pbmaz...Please look at your PM Inbox for a message I sent this morning;.

Thank You and have a great New Year first weekend.

GO PACKERS ! GO PACK GO !!

I agree. This kind of bravado is pointless. They need to be as healthy as possible.

It could be that there is a lot more wrong with this team than injuries. Possible that stubby knows all the rest in the world, won't fix what's truly ailing this squad.

I got here to late to vote dont come here to much any more since all the whining sorry but the way I see it is fair weather packer fans are one thing I just cant stomach it makes me sick I want them to win every game but they are my team win or loose and sure I want them better every year and this has been a year to test every bodies nerves . I would have voted on the poll to go all out to win the division I dont believe this yrs team is going to far in the play offs and after watching years and years of Packers losses and a successful season being any season we beat the bears 2 times in a yr. I want them to win there division any time they can.

Any second thoughts about the pleasure of hosting Seattle?

Would be Divisional Round. Packers either at home versus Vikes or @ Washington during Wild Card weekend.

[Bretsky]

THESE IDIOTS ON NBC just showed a bracket showing GB 3 seed, Seattle 6 seed, and then noted

"Minnesota and WASHINGTON" playing tonight for the NFC Central Title.

At this point no matter what happens tonight, the only way we play Seattle this postseason is at home in the NFC title game.

I think most of us can agree... doesn't really matter in the long run - we're not going anywhere.

We simply don't belong on the same field as Carolina, Arizona, or Seattle.
