[QUOTE="PackAttack12, post: 691502, member: 11933"] Well Ladies and Gentleman, we at least have more of a reason to hope than we did at this time last week! With a big win over the Eagles at their place in primetime, our Packers have now moved to 5-6, just one game behind the Vikes and 2 games behind the Lions. We control our own destiny if I'm not mistaken over the Vikings, even being one game back since we play them again and we currently hold the tie breaker advantage on them. And the Lions have an extremely tough finishing schedule. [B] Updated as of Week 11:[/B] Lions - 7-4 Vikings - 6-5 Packers - 5-6 [B]Remaining schedules: [U]Green Bay: [/U][/B] Texans 6-5 Seahawks 7-3-1 @Bears 2-9 Vikings 6-5 @Lions 7-4 [B][U]Minnesota: [/U][/B] Cowboys 10-1 [USER=5206]@Jaguars[/USER] 2-9 Colts 5-6 [USER=1693]@Packers[/USER] 5-6 Bears 2-9 [B][U]Detroit: [/U][/B] @Saints 5-6 Bears 2-9 @Giants 8-3 @Cowboys 10-1 Packers 5-6 This week could be the week that the outlook on the race for the North is changed entirely. Under this extremely plausible scenario (Vikings lose to the Cowboys, the Lions lose at the Saints, and the Packers win a home game against the Brock led Texans) we would move into a tie with the Vikings, firming our strangle hold on that matchup, and thus moving to within just one game of the first place Lions, in which we would again control our own destiny since we play them in the last regular season game, and a win would give us a two game sweep on them, locking up the tie breaker and ultimately the division. My only concern is that it's entirely unlikely that the Cowboys win out, and Zimmer's defense could be group to solve Dak at least for one night. But if the Cowboys play the way that they have played of late, and Dak doesn't try to do too much, this will certainly be a loss for the Vikings. This is the one game where I am an avid Cowboys fan, as I know the rest of us are! And even if the Lions beat the Saints in New Orleans (which I don't think that they will), they still have two very losable road games to the Giants and Cowboys before squaring off with the Pack for what could be all the marbles. Of course, the most important part of this equation is for the Packers to take care of business against an opponent that they should handle without much of an issue, if we play up to our capability, and then that would set up a week 14 showdown at Lambeau v.s. the Seahawks. A win there and it's truly game on. Let's GO! [/QUOTE]
