Well, one would hope not. The Packer's next 5 games should be against easier teams, well all except one. So that number should go up. but even at 4.5 ppg,(6.8 if you take out the Philly game) that's not winning by much.
Well with the Patriots, you have to look at who they have played. 92 of those 183 have been against the Jets and the Dolphins. And the Ravens, 91 have been against the Bengals and Dolphins. Matter of fact, the Dophins account for 102 of those points between those two teams. And they both still have to play them again.
This is fairly obvious, but when you've won 10 or more games every season since 2002, that's going to help your point differential. Because every win pads your stats. The only way that gets counteracted really is getting blown out.
Yet the 8-3 Packers sit with only a +16 point differential.
I have believed that for a long time after my father told me and he turned out correct. Funny
How many times have you seen Brady pulled in the 4th when the Pats are up by 20? Against the Dolphins first game Brady is passing the ball for a TD with 2:15 left in the game. Seriously, can you even name the Pats backup QB without looking it up? I couldn't.
They've been blown out twice too. It also indicates they've won a lot of close games. Which is not an entirely bad thing. But if you're concerned about the team, you're not the only one. This looks like yet another Packer team that will likely make the playoffs, but will be unable to parlay it into a championship. I guess considering the past several seasons, making the playoffs is a big step in the right direction. Even though I expected them to win the division this year.
My fault posting without quoting. This is what my post was in response to. We have been better this year and the one I quoted wants to discuss firing our OC and DC. Reminds me of the Chargers firing Marty after going 14-2.
I like the smokestacks blowing cheese puffs. That toy would sell this Christmas better than scooters, micro pets and Lionel trains combined!
That reminded me to vent about "cheese puffs". Ever been to a Packer game and have to sit behind someone wearing a cheese hat or some other extra large object on their head? I always wondered what it would be like and at the Lions game this year I finally found out, it is annoying as hell. Big tall man, already blocking the view for most people, plops a big wide foam wedge of fake cheese on his head and makes watching the game a constant battle of view angles.
Heck my wife does it all the time at home in front of the TV at the worst possible time! She’ll suddenly want to ask me a ridiculous question while we’re lined up to go for it on 4th down! (I’m talking the game here...
)making the playoffs this year is a win in my book. They're certainly better than they showed on Sunday night, and like all of us knew to start the year and pretty much every week since. They have areas that need better players and some players need more consistency.
I'm not going to discount them from any post season push, as they have shown they can play at a pretty high level. I'm also not going to predict a strong post season push as they've shown they are playing with lesser talent at certain positions and have a problem with consistency. 1st year staff has a lot of experience to gain as well. If things line up well, sure they can go far.
I know i'll be tuned in to see how it plays out. Just hope there aren't any more like last Sunday
Are the Seahawks going to forfeit? Because that’s the only way the Bears make the playoffs before they do.
The Bears are on the far outside of the stratosphere looking in. It’s highly unlikely they make the playoffs.
Names?
no change. still tier 2 with a deceiving 9-3 record.
Fixed that for you.
