This assumption is that you don't fully believe in the Lions, and think the Tier 1 teams are 9ers/Dallas/Eagles (in that order IMO). Philly or Dallas will 100% get the 5th seed, baring obscene circumstances. Thus, whoever gets the #1 team will very likely be matched against against the DAL/PHI in the divisional round, and then likely be matched against the other in the conference championship. For example, would you rather have a Bye-PHI-DAL for your road to the Superbowl, or potentially something like GB-DET-NFCE team?

Soggust Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Passed out in the 3rd quarter of SNF due to my diabetes acting up after 27 Β straight cookies and the thread is already locked lol.Β Β But good game Packers fans. I saw the bad call montage but regardless of crap officiating you beat our butts and hope the best for you guys going forward.Β 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credit for week 1 against KC (although... they have looked pretty flawed), but since then it's almost entirely bad or middling teams. Chiefs W Falcons W Packers W Panthers W Buccs W Raiders W Chargers W Bears W Then they play the Ravens and get trounced 38-6. I mean, credit where credit is due, it's hard to win in the NFL regardless of skill. They're definitely a solid team, but I'd much rather see the Cowboys play against the Lions then the Eagles and 9ers. AJ Brown/Smith and their lines scare me more than anything the Lions have. The other contender they've Only other caveat is playing in SF or PHI afterwards would be a nightmare.

VigilantZombie Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 If only beating NE by 6 in a 6-0 football game doesn't get you fired, perhaps nothing will. Β I can't say much the Steelers got stomped by the 2-10 Cardinals.... don't get me started on that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lost at home to both Green Bay and Seattle and it wouldn't be the craziest thing for the Rams or Vikings to win in Detroit either.

FrantikRam Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 If I need the Chiefs defense to be bad because I have a fantasy player going against them, they're the best defense in the NFL. If I need the Chiefs defense to be good to beat an NFC team for the wildcard race, they're the worst defense in the NFL. Bad news for the Bills next week since I have Allen and Diggs.
