or are we playing for position, because unfortunately number one looks out of reach

Greg C. said:No. The #2 seed is not wrapped up. Seattle is only two games behind the Packers with four to play. And there is a chance that the Cowboys will slip and lose a couple games, opening the door to the #1 seed. Plus the starters need to get as much work together as possible during real games so they will be more ready for the playoffs.
nope not even, we have to keep winning games, i believe seattle and tampa are right behind us. we need that first round bye.
It's been years since we had a first round bye. We gotta lock that up first and foremost.
Then we can lose out for all I care. That earns you higher draft status if we don't win the Super Bowl.
Yeah, 2002 was a rough year as far as the injury bug goes, although 2005 was definitely just as bad if not worse.
Only way I'd rest starters is if we have nothing to play for. I think 12 wins is going to be good enough to get that bye, but let's worry about wrapping up the division first this week against Oakland.
The Packers definitely want that #2 seed. That's one extra game they have to play to get to the Super Bowl.
