[QUOTE="Quientus, post: 260006, member: 1834"] While the win this night was rather huge in terms of play off aspirations, it was not a "pretty game" ... Nevertheless the end result was what mattered, and the Packers are looking quite good in the wild card race as of right now ... Saying the North "belongs to the Packers" is a little premature and also putting a little too much into a game that didn't mean much (conference wise), especially considering Minnesota won both games against the Packers ... I think everyone is putting a little too much into one game, when it comes to the Vikings ... The Cardinals is not a bad team - even though some people would like to think that ... However, the Vikings did look quite horrible in that game in Arizona ... But then again, the Vikings didn't look "horrible" losing to the Steelers ... But most times any time a team loses, it will look "bad" ... I agree that Vikings *could* lose to Bengals, however, playing in Minnesota I don't think that will happen ... Match up wise, the Vikings match up better against the Bengals than they did Arizona and the game is also played in Minnesota ... Despite how awful the Steelers have looked lately, playing against them in Pittsburg is never easy for any team ... And in all likelyhood, the Steelers will be playing for "keepers" when they host the Packers in two weeks ... And history has shown that the Steelers is actually a team that is able to play up (or down) to the level of their respective opponents ... The Steelers lost a close game against the Ravens in Baltimore, and I honestly don't think the Ravens would have won had they been playing in Pittsburg ... But then againt the Steelers did lose at home to Oakland (LOL !!!), however, The Raiders seem to only be wanting to play well against "good" teams, and just don't care about the rest of the league ... - The Raiders won against the Bengals at home, against the Eagles (at home) and their 3rd came against the Steelers (surprisingly) away ... 3 wins against 3 very different (and quite good) teams, while having lost the other games played ... Don't forget, while the Steelers won (home) against the Vikings, the Vikings actually dominated the Steelers (playing in Pittsburg) ... - Again, how you win isn't important really, as long as you win ... While the Packers are on a good roll now, with 4 games won straight, saying the look unstoppable is a little too much to say ... - Don't forget that in terms of tie breakers, the win against the Ravens doesn't count for much as the Ravens is an AFC team ... And thus won't count unless it comes to out of conference games ... If the regular season ended now, the Packers would still have to face the Saints before matching up against the Vikings ... Last nights game didn't show an "unstoppable" Packers team (what game did you watch ?), very far from it, but again, the Packers got a good win, because it doesn't really matter how you win, as long as you win (as I and others have pointed out numerous times). Despite being intercepted twice in last nights game, I agree that Rodgers played rather well, however, he still needs to improve on his game play, - so far I would credit the game planning and coaching more for his (improved) play and the performance of the offensive line ... - The same coaching and offensive line alot of people were calling "atrocious" and "worst in the league" not so long ago ... As I've said before, the offensive line the Packers have isn't as "atroucious" (sp?) as alot of people said it was during the first half of the season, and the defense has steadily been looking better ... Let's just hope that they can keep it up the next 3 games (atleast) ... I'm saying the next 3 games, because if the Packers manages to win those, I don't think the last game will matter much in terms of play off implications ... Winning min 2 more games should be enough to clinch a play off berth, and going 4-0 in the last 4 games isn't impossible at this point (as in all likelyhood the Cardinals won't have anything to play for in the last game of the regular season, and by the looks of it, pending results going into that game, the Packers might not have either), however, I didn't see anything in last nights game that would convince me that the Packers would be able to beat neither the Saints, nor the Vikings ... Especially not playing either team away ... [/QUOTE]
