The average high temp in Miami in late December is 76°. This is good for us. It isn't unusual for Miami to be in the 80s this time of year.

On paper we have the toughest schedule of the remaining teams ahead of us. You are right but on any given Sunday... Who thought Jax would beat the Cowboys? Or the Browns would beat the Ravens? I have mixed emotions about all of this. I am a Packers fan and I want the team to do well. It would be nice to get in the dance but we aren't going anywhere even if we do. Getting a higher draft pick probably would be better for us in the long run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that scenario, GB would actually be a fairly dangerous team for a higher seed to face. Playing MIN in RD1 of the playoffs would be too perfect. Doesn't mean I expect it.

If the Packers win out and assuming the 49ers don't choke vs. the Raiders and Cardinals, they basically doom themselves to playing the 49ers.

Beating the 49ers would be about as satisfying as beating the vikings. Purdy absolutely could drop a stinker when the chips are all in.

Brat&Beer Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 I don't see the Packers winning their last 3 games unless the defense substantially improves. So it's probably not going to happen. But if it does happen, the Packers would be a team that would cause some concern for any opponent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont get the paralysis by fear Yes, the Packers could win because "any given Sunday", but the 49ers strengths absolutely exploit the Packers weaknesses. It's okay to be hopeful but, imo, it's just not realistic to assume that the Packers will shut down what the 49ers do best based on everything we've seen so far this season.

That has a very very low chance of occuring (per 538). Detroit beating CHI and CAR while losing to use only reduces our odds by a few percentage points.

On paper we have the toughest schedule of the remaining teams ahead of us. I saw two young WRs that are getting better each and every week and an offense that is finding its identity. If we beat Miami theres no reason to think we cant finish it off at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skibrett15 Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 So Lazard played 67 snaps (94%) and was barely targeted Doubs plated 23 snaps (32%) and had 5 targets for 5 catches. I'd like to see those flip flop or at least even out with an eye toward next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why the Giants, Seahawks and Commanders have been able to lock on so many wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then joked on a reporter that he needs to have jones dillon watson and doubs on the field every play.

Doubs has more upside to me I don't see the need to retain Lazard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
