next 5 games...how many L's?

[gbgary]

i'm thinking at least 4. they'd be mostly dead then. not enough consistency on either side of the ball. the trend has been to fall behind early and that's iocane against a good team. 3 or fewer...it would take a miracle.

I, too, am a pessimist, for in a system designed to keep the downtrodden down, hope is but an illusion.

However, it is worth noting that in 2012, the Packers were 2-3 when they visited the undefeated Texans down there yonder in ole hillbilly Texas, and the Packers managed to annihilate the Texans in hippie fashions.

Beat them damn St. Louis Rams, and we all might as well get our fire ready, cos if the Pack can beat the Rams, no reason they can’t proceed all the way to the lost city of Atlanta and burn it to the ground (again) on Super Bowl Sunday.

It’s a legit new topic. Things change as the season progresses.

Packers don’t stand a chance unless their secondary can become dominant and they’re running out of time. The rest of their defense is marginal (d line) or a total mess (lbs).

2 loses to the Pats and Rams.

[MadScientist]

The way they've been playing, 1 win at best. If the bye week helps the team extract their heads from their asses, they could get 2.

Only loss is to the Rams....and that is a close one.

What? The NFL is totally geared to hamstring the successful, and reward failure. It is the Harrison Bergeron League (Two HB refs in less than 10 minutes! - THAT'S A RECORD)

If they wear their color rush unis, the Packers will get slaughtered.

Actually, I looked it up - they will be wearing their old school royal blue Unis (which the players say they love). It's supposed to be in the 80's Sunday - I hope they swelter in 'em.

By this point in my life as a Packer fan, especially in the last ten years or so, I think it's pretty clear how this will go:

After the off week, the Packers put in an impressive performance against the Rams. They might lose a close one, they might hang for a while and get blown out, and if they do lose, then . . .

They'll go to NE on the heels of despair and beat the Pats at home.

OR, if they do somehow upset the Rams, they'll then lose to the Pats at home.

Got it so far?

They'll then be 4-3-1, and people will cling to hope. Then they'll beat the Dolphins at home, going 5-3-1, and people will start talking about this team making a run. Seattle will look fairly mediocre, and people will be confident.

Then they'll go out to Seattle and lose, then compound that by losing to the Vikes.

So there we will all be, with a 5-5-1 team. And that will be what they are.

They then qualify for the playoffs, win a WC game and then lose a Divisional game that they never lead, scoring some meaningless 2nd half points, final score within 7.

pfft if we make it to the playoffs we will get to the NFCCG and get demolished.

That hasn't been the trend.
