This upcoming weekend against Minn...

Yes, they probably don't have a chance this year anyways in the playoffs...with an entire injured hurt offensive line and the 3rd worst WR-core in the NFL behind the Browns and Chiefs...but..

If GB were to beat Minn, that would mean they would host Seattle(assuming they lost @Zona), then go back to Zona...

I would much rather play @Wash and @Car...

 

Cant believe I will be rooting for a GB loss

I feel with you! The team is for the the first time in many years in shambles, they look and are bad! But, i think Seattle will beat AZ this week, so I will still cheer for Pack to lose or else they will play Minn back to back. Win the division, but lose the following week in playoffs. They definitely have a better chance going the Washington route after losing two straight!

I just dislike all the talk about how Rodgers has lost it.  He has ZERO offensive line. 

More importantly, people don't understand how bad his WR's and TE's are.  Besides Cobb, his WR's wouldn't be in the NFL if they weren't on GB.  Jones was cut by 2 teams before the season started, Adams is an absolute bust...Janis and Aber??

Very disappointed in the lack of Wr's outside of Nelson and Cobb.  Cobb is only a threat when Nelson is taking the double-team on the outside.  Without the threat of Nelson, defenses don't have to worry about anything beyond 15 yds

The Pack can't beat Carolina or Arizona so it doesn't matter.  In fact I don't think they can win a playoff road game period.  If your rooting against them vs Minn then you will likely see them upset the following week at Wash.  If you want to see them win a playoff game you should be rooting for them, because I do think they can beat Seattle (with no Rawls or Lynch).

I'm not anti GB by any means just stating the reality, this years team as is isn't capable of making that kind of run.  That has been clear in the last 9 game stretch where they went 5-4.

wide outs weak, but Rogers no confidence any more. lost his quick release, not the leader i thought he was. Compare him to brady now, Brady has no wide outs or running back, but still a leader!

Packers are an abomination they've been horrible against elite teams like Arizona, Denver, and Carolina. One and done in the playoffs.

Rodgers when at top made bad players around him good. Not any more. Maybe it can be fixed or not? Personal? Something just is not right there!

McCarthy is a bad coach.

Id love to hear Rodgers honest opinion on this Doufess

Gronk is the best tight-end in football...I would take Julian and Danny over anybody on GB besides Jordy

They have the best coach in football, and a better defense

I don't think McCarthy is a great coach, but I don't blame him for this.  They just have no talent on offense besides Cobb and an overweight Lacy...

I have never seen such a bad group of WR's before.  They are slow and cant get open.  If you watch games, the safeties or corners don't ever have to worry about getting beat deep.  There literally are 11 defenders within 15 yds on every play.  No chance to do anything.

Arizona shoots the most blitzes per game in the league. Something Rogers has been bad against this year, and yes the oline is in bad shape.

But will zimmer dial up as many blitzes as zona did?? It would be hard to see Rodgers getting sacked 4 or more times let alone 9!

I think McCarthy is smart enough to design a gameplan to catch minny off guard. We will see. Should be a tight game

You need Green Bay to lose. Washington is nothing, and they would have a better chance at Carolina as going back to Arizona and getting another annihilation. My brother is a Packer fan and I'm a Cardinal guy and loved giving him hell. I even told him they needed to pull Rodgers in the 3rd quarter before he got killed. I actually felt slightly sorry for mr bro.....lol. ?

hmmmmmmmmmm.

Not so easy to play Quarterback when you have no offensive life. I wonder who the guy was who went on rant after rant about this fact....Oh yeah it was me.

Welcome to Ryan Tannehills world. The offensive line the Packers have now is what Tannehill has been dealing with his whole career.

It has been a disgraceful season for Tannehill and the Dolphins, but funny how your argument changes when YOUR offensive line decided to use Bill Cosby card board cutouts.

I would love for green bay to come to play the Redskins, cause the Redskins will beat the crap out of them! Washington will be tough to beat at home!

I actually think it'd help if McCarthy took over the playcalling again.  Just my opinion but he's one of the better head coaches in football.  They still are a solid team overall.  Getting wrecked by Arizona doesn't mean they're the worst ever.  Arizona is a legitimate SB contender.

  I guess that makes him just a game manager, eh? I say the same thing about Russell Wilson & that's the most common response........except these days, now that he's leading the NFL in QBR.
 I know Rodgers is still dangerous.......but he does need help. Losing Nelson was a big blow & Lacy is a bust. Hard to believe they look like this after the start they had.

If your scenario played out, #3 Minn would have to beat #6 Sea in the 1st round in order for #5 GB to play Car instead of Az. That I'm not confident in

Otherwise, GB would be guaranteed to go to Az, cause they cannot be the #6 seed as they own the tiebreaker with Sea. #1 Car would play the worst seed no matter what.
