[QUOTE="adambr2, post: 578917, member: 7277"] Remaining schedule: Should definitely win (games that we will be strongly favored in and it would be a fairly big upset if we lose) Chicago, @Minnesota, Atlanta, @ Tampa Bay It feels weird to put the Bears in this category, but a number of elements go into it: the Bears mighty struggles lately and the Packers recent history against them, with of course the game being at Lambeau. If the struggles against the run continue though, Forte could keep them in it. No reason to lose any of the other 3. AP was always the x-factor in the dome, and that's no more. I haven't forgotten our history against Tampa Bay, but the talent gap just seems too large -- Rodgers should destroy that secondary. It's a good time of the year to go there where the heat won't be as much of a factor as it was against Miami. It's really difficult to imagine Atlanta pulling the upset at Lambeau. Winnable but tough games: Philadelphia, New England, @Buffalo, Detroit You'd think a Kyle Orton led team wouldn't be a huge threat, but don't sleep on the Bills. I'd probably put the game in the top category if it were at home, but in Buffalo, we'll see. It's still a game we should win. The other 3 are fortunately at home. Philly has been in every game, but they've also had some close calls. It will be interesting to see how McCoy is running at that point. New England is playing some good ball. To my knowledge Aaron Rodgers has never faced them. Everything about the finale against Detroit screams that it's a game we should win. It's at home, it's against a team that hasn't won there in 23 years, and it's in the cold for a dome team that's been known to struggle down the stretch. Still, we'll wait and see if the Caldwell factor results in a different type of finish for the Lions this year. All in all, every game on the remaining schedule is winnable, and on the surface at this moment I would be surprised if we are not favored in every one of them. Doesn't mean we will win them all, but 6-2 should be a realistic goal which would put us in good position to win the division and possibly get a 1st round bye. [/QUOTE]
