Huge loss - playoff seeding at stake, and the Packers come out and lay an egg in the 1st half, which killed any realistic shot of coming back, though they did make it much closer in the final two quarters.
Fist time in awhile they've dropped 2 straight.
They are getting out physicaled by opponents. They still likely win division, even though the Vikings are tied with them right now. Minnesota is also 3-0 in their division, with GB at 1-0. Conference record is the same.
We have to keep pace. We're 2 games back for both division and WC spot at the moment. Atlanta's worth keeping an eye on, too, because they've lost 2/3 and are in a battle with SF at the moment.
No matter what, we have to beat Az to realistically stay in playoff hunt. Lose game, and our chances take a big hit.

Division crown gets us one home playoff game, but we still have a long way to go before thinking that.
The Vikings are winning, but it's very sketchy. We play pretty well in cold weather games, too.
If the Falcons drop the game in SF today, they will be 6-3. Far from certain, but they're starting to get sloppy after a nice start to season.

Gabbert just beat the Falcons and that will probably be the official end of the Kaep era, baring injury. Falcons are the #2 WC team right now and starting to fade a little.
Next week is really looking like a make or break game.

Yes, they are 6-2 but they are only 2 games ahead of us and still have to play us twice.
The cards have beat the Saints, Bears, 49ers, Lions, Ravens, and Browns
They have lost to the Rams in Arizona and at Steelers.
Their remaining schedule:
@ Sea, vs Cin, @ SF, @ STL, vs Min, @ Phi, vs GB, vs Sea.
I predict that the Rams will finish second in the division to us. Arizona is gonna drop off this second half (I could see Cards going 2-6 this second half of the season).
EmeraldBullet wrote:In the games against the Lions, Bengals, and Panthers we didn't cover the tight end. I expect this to change. We do need to figure some stuff out on offense though. I think our offense is most flat when Wilson is running at all. I don't have any stats or anything to back that up, just an observation.
On a side note I hope Panthers get HF (thinking it wont be us), I'd rather have to play in Carolina than in GB in the playoffs (looking ahead.)

If they come in against AZ and play that good, we have a chance if Russell can get his act together for a whole game. We need 30 points to be in the game.
Bailey really did well in his first game, for a player that wanted out a couple of weeks ago. Now what do we do with Okung?
Is now a good time to just put the best 5 on the field or go back to Okung?

Seahawks4Ever wrote:Uh, the Cardinals have not defeated anyone with a winning record either so I think until they defeat us I will believe us to be fairly even.
The Panthers are undefeated, BUT, we could of and should have won that game. the Panthers are another team that has beat very few teams with a winning record.
We had to play the toughest part of our schedule before Arizona and Carolina had to play their hard part.
look at what happened to the Packers, as soon as they had to play opponents with winning records they lost. That was another team we gave the win away too.
This game against the Cardinals is going to tell whether we are going to make a run at the play offs or not. Until we are out of it I am going to believe we can do it.
RiverDog wrote:They're down 2 scores at home in the 4th quarter against the Lions, the consensus worst team in the league. The announcers are blaming it on not having Jordy Nelson, whom they haven't had all season.
Clearly, something is different about this team. This isn't the same team we played in September.
