[QUOTE="PackerfaninCarolina, post: 638547, member: 9364"] This is very much incorrect. Jameis Winston's been playing some very good football and winning games despite a very beatup receiver core. If they get healthy and this Tampa Bay team makes the playoffs, you damn well better not sleep on them, especially taking into account how good Doug Martin is looking. Lovie Smith's problem in his previous years was he could not find the right offensive coordinator for his offenses and therefore struggled. He's got a good one this year in Dirk Koetter, and the Bucs' O-line is drastically improved since week 1. Also need I remind everyone this Bucs team has played us very tough in the past. If I were to rate our most favorable playoff teams top to bottom, it'd go like this - 1. Atlanta - Matt Ryan has not been good in the playoffs and his decision-making has gone downhill over the years. Also, their D while being marginally improved is still struggling to stop teams for the most part. 2. Chicago - I'd pick them in 2nd because I think come playoff time our guys would be very angry about what happened Thanksgiving night and would be only too eager to bring the wood on Chicago, and you shouldn't trust a Jay Cutler led Bears team in the playoffs. 3. Giants - 50/50 on these guys because that's the kind of team they've been all year. Obviously, I don't really want to have our corners tested on Odell Beckham Jr and Reuben Randle and Eli Manning has been playing some good football this year compared to the last 2 years, and obviously he's done well against us in the last couple playoff meetings. On the other hand, their defensive line has had almost no sacks this year and they can't stop the run either as Washington proved last week. Could be a bad or good matchup, depending on how it goes down, plus who knows, in a season that some demons got exorcised, these guys might make the list. 4. Tampa Bay - I'm not exactly wanting a hot Tampa Bay team coming up to Lambeau. Lovie is pretty familiar with us and a Bucs team with almost no expectations to even be in the playoffs could be more dangerous than one with high expectations. 5. Seattle - Just don't like the idea of Seattle looking for payback for earlier this year and feel like a stumbling team of ours just getting in isn't the ideal matchup to be starting the playoffs with.
