It wasn't a myth 35% of the time. Add that those team were likely at home and favorites after sweeping the team and I stand by not wanting to see a division rival I swept again in postseason. I would guess we are talking about small sample size anyway.
Same here, I sort of expected to lose today with the secondary so beat up and on the road but we got dominated until the last 10 minutes. Just not a consistent enough team for a run but what the hell, at least we get extra Packer football.
I don't know man, the NFL is sort of built to have these "witching hour" comebacks to keep fans interested. We were beaten early in 4th quarter and never got the ball back with a chance.
I was thinking about it last week when he turned down the TD to Watson for the easier throw on 4th down, I am not sure I trust Love's accuracy yet to be too aggressive.
Kyle Brandt said on GMFB that Packers-Bears will be on Saturday. They don't announce anything for next week until after this weekend but just a heads up for anyone going it could be moved.
Alexander won't play if he is not 100%, I thought they said he still just didn't feel like himself last week. Everybody else plays through stuff like this but I am guessing he just doesn't trust the knee yet. He will be released in the offseason and someone will give him something like an 8 million one year prove it deal. In camp he will claim he feels healthy for the first time in years then he will pull hammy/quad/groin in like week 2 and miss a month.
I still hope he is back for the playoffs but he needs to get out there soon.
I am not too thrilled with going to Philly and then Detroit while the Vikings get Tampa and then the Wash-LAR winner. Most years I would agree it doesn't matter but I think this is a year where fighting for every seed could pay off. Let Wash take another crack at Philly first.
With Washington on our heels there is a good chance we will need to win both these games to avoid the 7 seed. I don't want any lay down games, keep the team focused and sharp heading into playoffs.
