[QUOTE="PackerfaninCarolina, post: 635976, member: 9364"] Yeah as much as I hate to say it, Minny did not lose to Detroit at home, which our doing so could be the thing that costs us a 1st round bye, barring what happens against Arizona. There's one thing we can learn from yesterday's game, and that is that it should never be assumed that all wins come easy. While me may not completely know the full story behind our offensive struggles the last few weeks, or even know to date if they're fixed enough even, Rodgers just was not going to play in a career bad slump forever and at some point Lacy was bound to get going. I was surprised that AD couldn't get going like I was expecting him too, but like Rodgers, make no mistake that that will not be the MO for the rest of the season. That being said, our upcoming schedule, here's how I think it's going down I think now that the Bears got brought back down to reality and seen their dream of beating us out for that wildcard spot go up in flames, I don't see them having nearly the edge or determination as they might have had they won and we lost yesterday. And I think the bad Cutler will show up again in Lambeau on prime time, that's been one thing we can almost surely count on over the years. Detroit, crazy thing is they might be on a win streak when we play them that Thursday night, they 've won 2 in a row now and given how bad Philly is playing right now, I think it might be 3 in a row when we play them. But I think our guys will have revenge on the mind plus if Lacy is still running with a full load of speed and if Janis can continue to be a factor with Abbrederis, our WR core may be a bit more polished this time around. Dallas is the game that concerns me because their defense has been a strength this year and with Romo back and still a chance to win the East if they beat Carolina this Thursday, this game would concern me. I think we do beat Oakland because even though Carr is playing good football and certainly Latavius Murray is having a good year and their offense is improving, their defense has still been bad so I'm not too worried about them. And then Arizona is the last game before we play Minny again, and this is by far the toughest challenge we have. For Minny: Yes they do have to play Atlanta next week but if Devonta Freeman can't go, the Falcons lose this hands down. Matt Ryan is really starting to suck bad and if that continues which I think it will, Minny wins this. Then I know they do have Seattle which I'm not sure what to call, but I think because it's in Minny and because Seattle has been in regression all year and lacks a passing threat on the road late in season, I think Minny wins this one too. Minny will lose to Arizona on the road, I wouldn't doubt that one bit They should beat Chicago at home The New York Giants I don't know. Jason Pierre Paul is back now and this team might be one to look out for, but the question always is which Eli shows up to play. 50/50 on this one. And then us. I got a feeling we could both be coming into this game with tie records just like we had against Detroit in the final game last year. Given how unpredictable the league is I would certainly not assume that last game is an auto W for us. But I got a feeling it will be a winner take all game. [/QUOTE]
