Week 14

[gunnarthor]

GB v Det. Gads. 

I assume detroit wins but would be nice if they start to collapse. 

[Aggies7]

Kind of want Green Bay to win. That 1 seed is so crucial if you can get it

[Mike Sixel]

I'd be shocked if MN passed Detroit.... But it would be nice

Plus I dislike GB, and would be happy for lions fans if they win it all

[Aggies7]

Ooo big int by goff

[Aggies7]

Dandy Dan Campbell with another hair-brained decision to go for it on 4th down from his own 30. While leading. He manages every game like this.

[Aggies7]

Listen I get it. He goes for it on 4th down a lot. And it works a lot. But not every situation is the same. It’s a 3 point game and you just handed your opponent at least a field goal. 

[Mike Sixel]

Pretty sure both these teams are better than Minnesota

Kind of looks that way, but I think the Vikings could beat either.

Sure. It's only one game series in the playoffs

[Aggies7]

I really hate that Jordan love is good.

Detroit does play Buffalo next week. The Vikings could over take them.

Not to say they over take them for the rest of the season......

[nicksaviking]

I think the best scenario for the Vikings is if this game ends in a tie. Minnesota would control their own destiny and still keep Green Bay 1.5 games back should the Vikings beat Atlanta.

After this game, Green Bay's toughest game is against the Vikings. If they beat Detroit AND Minnesota, they'll probably win the division, and that's worst case scenario for me.

I'm not sure it's the worst thing as I do think he's good, but I don't think he's great. That has put plenty of teams in a situation where they can win a bunch of regular season games but never able to win it all.

I think the Packers are about evenly matched with the Vikings, Lions are a cut above both of them. 

[Aggies7]

I guess any thoughts of a lions offensive slowdown can be forgotten

I take it back. I want them to have bad QBs until the end of time.

[Aggies7]

Damn. I was hoping to see a lions letdown after that second half last week. And with buffalo the week after, we had a legit shot at the division. Still do. But Hopefully something wild happens here.

[Aggies7]

You’ve got be kidding. Lucky.

I don't see a realistic scenario where the Vikings win the division without beating the Lions. 

And Buffalo coming in after this tight game will be a tough one for them.

Honestly, that other team usually gets those plays.

Yes they would definitely have to beat the lions in any scenario 

[Aggies7]

Lions needed the last minute to beat us and GB. They’re better but by how much

Needed the last minute to beat the Vikings too.

And I'd been thinking about that this week. NE tried that 68 yard field goal last week that was two yards short. Should have the Vikings sent Reichard out to try a 67 yarder in that game?

Might have been better than taking a sack on a Hail Mary lol

They would have but for the penalty. It would have been a 72 yarder.

[Parfigliano]

Dan Campbell's idiotic going for it on 4th down in situations like before that last FG will be DETs downfall.

I can't wait to watch.

I can't wait to watch.

And yet, they succeeded more than failed. It's the right move way more often than playing not to lose, which is terrible strategy

Man, the Panthers had a shot to beat the Eagles. That would have been a big deal.

They did. The eagles are good but they can be had.
