Now I'm normally never one to cheer for the Queens, but this Sunday I'm going to have to make an exception.

If Minnesota can knock off Detroit, that would make our magic number 1 to clinch the division.

All the Packers would have to do then is knock off Oakland next week and we'll clinch the NFC North. I know most of you guys probably hate Minnesota like I do, but it's probably worth putting your hatred aside for one Sunday, at least because you know it will help the Packers.

I will be voting for the Vikings to win!! I thought that the Bears and Lions had to loose for us to clinch the division?

I think we can win the Oakland game so not worried there. We just have to keep our game plan the sameway.

I assume we also need to root against Tampa and Seattle for a first round playoff bye in the next few weeks.

Bears already have 6 losses. Lions currently have 5 losses. As long as Detroit records their 6th loss on Sunday, they could finish no better than 10-6. Assuming we beat Oakland next week, that would give us 11 wins and we could finish no worse than 11-5 and we'd clinch the division.

Yup....i was already looking at all of that. We are on the edge of sealing the division up. With 4 games left to go, isn't that a great feeling?
I remember MANY times having it go down to the last game..........and sometimes needing help from a different team to seal it. If we take care of business next week, and a few things go our way in other games, we're in.

I won't root for anyone but the Pack. The bottom line is that if the Packers take care of business and stay within their game plan they can beat anyone. The lost to Dallas because they got out of their game plan and their defense played lousy. We're going to win the North, now we have to play for home field because I don't think Dallas can run the table.

Well, anything can happen. I'm not really "rooting" for the Queens, but if they win it's just better for us.
One of the RARE times i don't mind hearing that STUPID horn!!! :lol:
Vikings 28-10 now. :wink:

You know, the vikes actually scare me a little in the playoffs, with peterson back. The lions on the other hand dont.

Wow, 35-10 at half.
I agree,....the Queens are looking good..........of course, they ARE playing the LIONS! :wink:

Do the Queens look that good or do the Lions look that bad? Remember, we made the Lions look awfully at times on Thanksgiving too.

As for us, I'm worried about our defense. They were supposed to be a real shut down defense and they're just not that way. Unless the defense reflames, anyone can beat us.

Doesn't matter if they win or lose. Either way, the Packers will win at least ONE game and have the NFCN Title.
