Seems unlikely to me that both SF and the Eagles lose next week, which is what needs to happen for us to get the #1 seed. So that means we are either playing Brady as the 5th seed or Green Bay as the 2nd seed.

I think I'd rather take my chances with Rodgers because then we would play either the Vikings or Giants. Playing Brady, the Eagles, and then likely SF seems like the hardest road possible.

I think GB is playing better Ball than TB over the last month or so. But it's kind of sad we are running afraid of teams with our record.

Probably 5th seed for us.

I would much rather play Brady in TB than have Rodgers in Dallas.

Well it's really GB (Rodgers and run game) or Brady (with good receivers)....

It’s pick your poison between Brady and Aaron Rodgers, but I would probably go with Rodgers because we have a couple of wins over him. We’ll never see Aaron Rodgers this season because we’re not going to get past Brady. The only real hope the Cowboys have to win a playoff game this season is to win the NFC East next week and get a home game.

Don’t matter we should be able to take care of either.
Defense needs to tighten up though

Probably 1 seed or 5th seed for us.

2 seed would take some help.

If the team with the winning record wins all the games, the only way we get the number 1 seed is if the Eagles and SF lose and we win. If we win the division and SF wins, SF is the #1 seed at least according to the simulator I ran.

Agree offense needs to start leading like they are paid to do;). 40mil guy needs to stop making turnovers and 3 and outs leading to defensive injuries. Oh wait, the defense has already been decimated with injuries that won’t be returning, they’re on ir(2 Achilles, Lisfranc fx are coming back this year.

Honestly, I love the opportunity to get a chance at either.

Any team we play will be good. If we want to win a Super Bowl, we're going to have to beat good/great teams.

I have faith in the Cowboys but it's also a little depressing that those are the most likely opponents LOL

Does it matter??? Both own us. Dak seems to play better though versus Rodgers. Though he did have a good game vs Tampa last season in a loss.

The fact GB is a win away from making the postseason is stunning to me.

I wrote them off on Halloween.

What a shock that has been.

There’s a crazy scenario where if Philly is the 1 seed and the 49ers are 2…it’s packers 49ers. If packers won phillly would get them in divisional round and winner of bucs Dallas would get either the giants or Vikings

I’m just saying I would rather play against Aaron Rodgers than Tom Brady, but we’re never going to see Aaron Rodgers. I gave an answer to the question. The odds are still stacked against the Packers making the playoffs because they need a number of things to happen.

The packers need to win a game they’re favored by 4.5 points next week at home to make the playoffs. That’s it.

that’s one thing.

like I said, familiarize yourself w the scenarios
