As heartbreaking as the last-play loss in Pittsburgh was last Sunday, the one thing the Green Bay Packers didn't lose was control of their playoff destiny.
That certainly beats the alternative, and it's a reality that is making it easier to move past the frustrations from the previous game, one the Packers know should have been their 10th win.
"We just need to win, period," receiver Greg Jennings said. "That's been our goal all year. We win and everything takes care of itself. We definitely just have to control what we can control and not worry about anything other than that."
The playoff scenarios as they pertain to the Packers are actually pretty simple.
--If the Packers (9-5) win their final two games, this Sunday at home against Seattle and then at Arizona on Jan. 3, they will earn an NFC Wild Card berth at 11-5.
--If the Packers split their remaining two games and finish 10-6, they will need either the Dallas Cowboys (9-5) or New York..
