[QUOTE="Anubis, post: 60146, member: 257"] I think I am missing something here: If I am not mistaken, GB plays each of its 3 division rivals 6 times during a season. That is once at home and once away for the Bears, Lions and Queens. The NFL regular season runs 16 weeks. That means that GB also plays teams from other divisions an additional 10 games throughout the season. From: [url="http://www.packers.com/pdfs/2002-09schedule.pdf"]http://www.packers.com/pdfs/2002-09schedule.pdf[/url] [b]Under the new scheduling formula, every team within a division will play 16 games as follows: **Home and away against its three division opponents (six games). **The four teams from another division within its conference on a rotating three-year cycle (four games). **The four teams from a division in the other conference on a rotating four-year cycle (four games). **Two intraconference games based on the previous year's standings (two games). These games will match a first-place team against the first-place teams in the two sameconference divisions the team is not scheduled to play that season. The second-place, third-place, and fourth-place teams in a conference will be matched in the same way each year.[/b] Now, I don't recall GB having a 6-10 season, though there have been teams that have in both the NFC and AFC. In 2004, the Queens managed to score a Wild Card berth with only an 8-8 record. This means that there were no teams in the NFC East or South with better a record (with the obvious exception of the Eagles and the Seahawks). There is no way based on the evidence that anyone is going to convince me that GB made the playoffs under Sherman's reign because the NFC North is the weakest division in the league. The facts I quoted above simply prove otherwise. GO PACK!!! Robert C. Hedley [/QUOTE]
