Since the Packers and Vikings are tied at 6-2 (and Vikings seem to have won whatever tie breaker NFL.com's standing is using), among some saying/suggesting to watch our backs for the Vikings... I've decided to look into the rest of the season of the two schedule wise.

First off, the team that doesn't win the division could very well be a wild card as of right now (half way through the season) they've got the 2nd and 5th seeds (if the playoff were to happen tomorrow)... and the last time the Packers were a wild card, they carried a chip on their shoulder into the playoffs and ended up winning the Super Bowl (not to say that would happen again)... but really the main goal of the regular season is to get into the playoffs and both of these teams seem to be well on their way.

But first off, they got two games left against each other (like most of the top division rivals seem to, which the NFL attempted to do on purpose). And both the Packers and Vikings are 4-0 at home and 2-2 on the road and 6-2 overall. So say they split those games.

Both teams also have home game against the Bears (1-2*) and road games against the Cardinals (3-1) and Raiders (2-2).
*= Bears road game record before the Chargers game. Other numbers are the Cardinals and Raiders home record so far.

The big difference in the Packers/Vikings remaining schedule are the three other games.

Packers have
~ Lions (0-4 on the road)
~ @ Lions (1-3 at home)
~ Cowboys (1-2 on the road... but I think they'll have Romo back by then)

Vikings
~ @ Falcons (3-1 at home, but they're going on a bit of a losing streak)
~ Seahawks (2-3 on the road, and they like the Packers are undefeated against teams that have more than one loss before the game starts... Rams/Packers/Bengals were all undefeated going into their games with the Seahawks)
~ Giants (2-3) on the road.


As of right now Packers have four games, out of eight, against teams that are 0.500 or better overall (including 3 of the last 3 to maybe get the Packers better prepared going into the playoffs)... and the Vikings have seven out of eight games left with teams over .500 overall. It gets a little better for the Vikings when you look at where they play, as the Seahawks and Giants aren't currently 0.500 on the road. But most of the Giants road losses came within 3 points, so they might be tougher on the road than their road record suggest.


So looks like the Packers have the easier schedule left... of course getting past the Cardinals, Raiders and Cowboys might be harder said than done... and hopefully the Packers still have Cuter's and Stafford's number.

Yup.....another division title, and then early exit in the playoffs.
Getting to be a broken record.
Don't get me wrong, I like seeing "my" team win, but it doesn't mean alot when you can't get it done against good teams. You only can beat up on the lower guys.
I see the Packers as the best of the mediocre.

I think the Vikings will win 9 or 10 games and I still think the Packers can win 11 or 12. It'll be enough for the division and we'll get to witness another one and done wild card weekend! Yay!!! [whead]

But hey, Coach doesn't think anything is broken and says all of the goals they want to achieve are still available!!!! 🤬
